I don't think it is Q's place. While Safin's room has an off-white or cream colour along with a blue, if you look at Q's place the blue is different.


Looking at Safin's room, we see a desk chair, a light stand, a book case, a door behind him with windows above the door, and I think if you look at Q's room in the Q teaser (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLQLqFCZSDY) it's difficult to match Safin's 'corner' with anything we see in Q's house.
But, I do think it resembles Madeleine's room in this shot, which is probably her office.

If you look at the walls behind her, one is an off-white and the other could be a light blue. I have also suspected that the shot of the woman opening the box with the broken Noh mask is not the same scene as Madeleine in her 'office' with a tear in her eye; instead, Madeleine, at that moment, could be looking at Safin - her 'brother'?
