This looks cool, but I really don't understand the constraints here. You have high tens of thousands of dollars of gear, but can't afford a space larger than a closet for it? Where did the space constraint come from? Was it just to see if you could do it?

Oh, didn't think that'd make it to the front page, appreciated! OP and builder here. The website was purely because a friend and I were looking for design work during lockdown and put together a couple of things we recently worked on, but basic design and build was a fun ~6 months solo project.

Its interesting how many of the comments here are criticizing the cost, the decision to commission a design firm, or that it just wouldn't work for them. In which case, great! You can choose however you want to do your home office. This person put in effort to both deliberately design their home office and to share it with everyone. That's pretty amazing! And even if I might not go the same way, there are def some ve…

Agreed. Too much negativity in the thread. I love seeing other people's offices, and having a blog that talks through the design decisions is great.

I've very different aesthetics and gear, but took ideas from this for sure. Loved the conferencing setup, for example.
