Hi HN! Recently I’ve been looking for a way to upgrade my remote workspace setup. And I’ve been curious about work desks of other people. So I've created IndieWorkspace - a gallery of remote workspaces around the world. I would be glad if you could share your setup, thoughts and feedback!

I wrote a semi-rant on mine years ago, http://rant.gulbrandsen.priv.no/arnt/ideal-office

If your office is yours, you're free to optimise it as the years pass. Mine has grown ever more colourless and quiet.

I'm struggling with keeping the rest of the family out at the moment. It matters to me, not to them. I want to feel that family doesn't exist when I'm in there. Not sure what to do.

Thank you for the link, I will definitely read the post.

I agree, the family has to understand that you are at work, even when you are at home. Good luck!

But on the other hand, the ability to optimise the workspace is invaluable... you may not agree with my particular optimisations, but they're optimised for work. The offices of various friend of mine, by contrast, are optimised by their employers for long lines of sight and easy reorgs.
