What dose fathers office look like in the boy in striped pyjamas

Just like his father's office in heir former home in Berlin, Bruno knows that his father's office in Out-With is "Out of Bounds, With No Exceptions." In fact, that is the title of Chapter 5, in which Bruno actually gets to see the interior of the forbidden room. In this chapter, Bruno desperately wants to speak with his father about his displeasure concerning the move to the new home, so he enters his father's office to speak with him.
The first thing that Bruno notices is that this room is different from the gloomy rooms that occupy the rest of the house. The office has a very high ceiling and a soft wall to wall carpet. The walls are entirely lined with tall mahogany bookshelves that are full of books. Across from the door are large windows overlooking the garden with a seat in front of them. The room is dominated by his father's large oak desk which is placed in the center of the office. His father's chair is behind the desk. There are at least two large armchairs in front of the desk for visitors and petitioners. Bruno is very impressed by the magnificence of the room.


One of the most important rules that Bruno must follow at home is to never enter his father's office. Bruno's father is a high-ranking Nazi commandant who conducts business from his home office and does not want his son disturbing him. Bruno obeys his father's rule that his office is "Out Of Bounds At All Times And No Exceptions" and has only been inside his father's office a few times.
In chapter 5, Bruno finally gets a chance to step into his father's new office at their house in Out-With. Bruno recalls seeing high ceilings and feeling the luxurious carpet underneath his feet throughout the office. There are also rich mahogany shelves aligning the walls, where books are neatly stacked and resemble the walls of a library. In the center of the office is a massive oak desk that sits in front of two high windows, which overlook the garden outside. Bruno is impressed with his father's luxurious office and is surprised at all the expensive features inside.
