My Dream Office

I work from home frequently and I love having a dedicated office in our home.  I’ve often thought one of the primary criteria next time we shop for a house will be whether it has an extra room sufficient for a dedicated office.

In the meanwhile, Jen and I share a spare room for our office and my desk is in a corner.  I would actually be interested in a corner desk such as the one showcased in the article below and a social/meeting space in the opposite corner.  It seems that this arrangement (flanked by my bookshelves) would do fairly well.

From Lifehacker article:

Today’s featured workspace was lovingly and artfully created by Flickr user themillerexperience. The desk tucks in nicely into a corner, fitting in with the side cabinets, and sports a glass-like glossy top coat.
Details:

Desk made from cherry and hard maple. 1 1/4″ slab finished with boiled linseed oil and epoxy resin for the glossy top coat. The epoxy resin is a perfect writing surface. Gets applied like melted glass and dries just as smooth as glass.

Corner Desk

Besides the attractive desk, there’s a sweet symmetrical balance to his set up. You can see a couple of more photos of the desk as it was being made in the Flickr link below.
If you have a workspace of your own to show off, share them with us by: a) posting it in the discussion below, attaching your image to the post, b) posting it to your personal Kinja blog using the tag featured workspace, or c) adding it to our Lifehacker Workspace Show and Tell Flickr pool. Make sure any photos you include are at least 640×360. Keeping them to 16:9 helps, too! Include a little text about the stuff you used, how you came up with the design, and any other relevant details. If your clever organization and good design sense catches our eye, you might be the next featured workspace.
