The Study

My study with new desk, new computer and new chair! Decided that since I'm working from home I should at least invest in something comfortable and ergonomic. Also nice to be back sitting at the window with a lovely view across the rooftops of Glasgow's south side.

 

The desk was built over two days by my father and I, made from Ikea solid wood worktop (it's all the same colour, the change in orientation and thus grain direction makes the left hand bit look lighter than the other bits). The units are also Ikea with the shelf made from an offcut of the worktop (thus making it heavy as hell when empty, hence the 3 brackets).

 

The wires are all strung along underneath on hooks so other than the power cords and a network cable spiralling up one of the leg supports you can't really see any wires (unless you choose to look underneath of course). The piece in at the window can be lifted out so cables can be tucked between it and the panelled side of the window (which leave just enough gap for USB cables and so forth)

 

The toys are all tagged in the photo!
