Friday Features on hold

In case you haven’t noticed: I’ve put Friday Features on hold until more material has been uploaded.

I was chasing photos considering featuring desks just for the sake of having something to write about. I didn’t want to do that, so I’m taking a short break.

My Setup

Multiple monitor setup with loads of ambient light. Uploaded by Victor Z.

T221 Experimentation

That’s a lot of screen real estate. 36,864,000 pixels in total, to be precise. Each monitor has a native resolution of 3840×2400 and the product family goes by the unofficial nickname “Big Bertha”. Thank you, Elliott Cable.

Homespace 1.1

It’s certainly worth following the progress of Cat’s workspace. The new backlighting works great with the curtains, creating a very snug atmosphere.

Have a great weekend!

The Lights

There’s a lot of hardware on this desk uploaded by Stephen Jennings.

Work Desk ..

Another sweet desk in the name of music and colors-in-the-dark. This adaptation was uploaded by Mark Ninan.

Livingroom Desk – Round 1 – His & Hers

I guess this desk qualifies into this weeks theme—if the gesture of the hand on the desk is interpreted in a Zappa-ish kind of way. Excellent desk uploaded by Mathew Sorge

Home Setup

A great looking desk uploaded by Vincent D’Oria! The panelled wall in the background goes really well with the aluminum case of the iMac.

Home Office

A very tidy home office uploaded by Drew Tempelmeyer.

… and all of a sudden it’s Friday again. Didn’t see it coming.

Yummygum Office

The Yummygum (via Vince) office gets the Clean Office Award®. Great attention to detail—they even made the cable-exit-holes in their desks resemble their logo mark!

Home Office

This beautiful photo was uploaded to our little site by Alexandr Schwarz. It’s a good looking desk captured in a great photo.

My Current Desktop

Again with the backlighting.. cannot resist the urge to feature backlit monitors.. Take a peek at Tim E’s desk and tell me that you don’t need an IKEA Dioder Light. Seriously.

Hi again! Last Friday was a holiday and I left my computer at home to spend a long (long as in spanning multiple days; not boring!) weekend on the country with my wife-to-be.

Enough about that.

The New Home Office

Jason Schuller’s home office features a lot of windows and an amazing view. This is my cup of tea—truly a place where I would be productive.

New Massive Office

Lyle Hebel gives us a glance into the Massive Studios office. Light furniture contrasting dark walls and ceilings along with contemporary in-doors windows and rustic decorations gives a very balanced appearance. Do not miss any of their photos!

2.13.10

A very cozy work space uploaded by Kyle Rose. It’s a little bit cramped, but Kyle’s choice of hardware makes up for that.

And Beyond…

Great contrast between the stickers and the sleek lines of the Apple hardware. An outdoors photo gives great sense of freedom. I hope Rob Hopkins works outside at times and that the photo was not just for show!

My home office desk

Tim Davies uploaded a few photos of his desk. It features sleek hardware, great colors and it’s just the right amount of tidy.

My Office 1.1

I’m totally in love with this office uploaded by Christoph Spiegl. The angle of the roof combined with the desk that stretches the entire width of the room gives a very cozy feeling. He does a great job picking up the accent color and lighting up the room (albeit a few of his photos just might have taken a trip or two through PhotoShop).

Computer Room

Great looking photo studio by Daniel Martins. I especially like the lens-like table shared by both workstations.

My study

Very “cute” desk uploaded by Bunny Golightly. I’m also vert fond of the typewriter. I hope it’s not just for show!

The Desk

An artsy-looking desk submitted by Rob Hopkins. Make sure to browse through all of the photos related to this desk as there are a lot of sweet little details that make the work environment.

The days move faster than I’d like to admit. It feels like last week consisted of nothing more than a few hours. Anyway, here are this friday’s desks and stats!

My custom made desk…

Make sure that you look through all of the photos of Joeri Van den Bosch’s custom made desk. Many smart little compartments to store the things that you just don’t want on your desk.

VARKODE Studio

Fernando Salazar has blessed our site with a photo of his stunning desk. Great backlighting; I’d love to see the night version of this photo.

My desk

Backlit is almost a theme this week: Austin Sersen, self-proclaimed geek, uploaded a very cool photo of his home office. Featured because it’s a totally awesome photo.

Almost featured on a friday

Work Desk.

I just couldn’t not feature Michael McLeod’s desk. If you know your plastic MacBooks and look carefully you’ll see that there is something unusual about his keyboard :)

Friday features and -stats

I’ve been quiet. Way too quiet. So quiet that it perplexes me that anyone even visits the site. I guess the number of visitors we get each day is a testament to how wonderful you—and the photos you upload—all are.

So what happened? Well, the site was launched and we did nothing to keep you interested. Sure, I visit the several times every day and look at pretty photos, but as the creator I have a responsibility.

I have every intention to change and as a first step towards being a community manager I’m going to feature three desks every Friday and explain why each desk was featured. You can agree or disagree with me. As a bonus I’ll post some—at least to me—interesting facts or stats about the site.

Without further ado, here are this Friday’s featured desks and the motivation behind the decision to feature them.

Friday Features

Textwriting

First out is Alexander S’ desk, Textwriting. I featured this desk because it reeks of activity. I love the contrast between the (right amount of) mess, the sleek lines of the aluminum MacBook and the orange snack. It just speaks to me.

Home Office

Chris Doss has blessed us with this amazing photo of his home office. It looks like such an inviting place to work—clean without being boring. Absolutely love the stone wall!

The Home Workspace

Ok, I’m going to cheat a little here. I didn’t feature John Manoogian III‘s desk today. Had I known a few days ago that I’d be writing this post I wouldn’t have featured it back when I did. Anyway, modern workplace meets Saw makes for a featured desk.

Friday Stats—the Commenters

This week I give you the commenters—the members who have posted the largest amount of comments since the start (Oct 2008).

  1. Stefan Kohler (118 comments).
  2. Gustaf Sjöberg (78 comments).
  3. Deon Lawson (71 comments).
  4. Alex Schwartz (49 comments).
  5. Tom Barber (47 comments).
  6. Michael Hetherington (43 comments).
  7. Harry Richmond (43 comments).
  8. Raymond Roman (41 comments).
  9. Xander N/A (40 comments).
  10. Ryan M (35 comments).

I’m embarrassed (but not surprised) that the illustrious Mr Kohler is in the lead. Xander has a weird last name.

I hope you enjoyed this Friday’s post. There are more new features and events coming.
