Symon Chow, Photographer/Graphic Designer, Brooklyn, New York www.symonchow.com "I cleaned my office so I thought I'd take some pictures cause it's not going to be like this again for a looong time! I'm a freelance photographer and graphic designer who works mainly at home. I converted our old, small bedroom into my office about a year ago, the desk area used to be the closet. I removed the sliding doors and fitted it with a big sheet of plywood and there you have it, An Office!" "Close up of my desk. Aside from doing all of my work here, I also spend a good amount of time playing video games here, much to my girlfriend and dog's dismay. But I guess it's better then doing this activity in the living room :)" "Another close up of my desk. Of note is the fancy box that I made to hide all of my hard drives. its so nice not having to stare at those annoying flashing lights all the time!" "Home made/ikea modular bookshelves and storage." "More of the home made/ikea modular bookshelves and storage. At some point I had painted the drawers black during a different configuration... Note all the fine ikea storage boxes. I have A LOT of crap! Also, a tip for your readers: A simple kitchen towel will extend the life of your printer by years! Trust me on this!" "And finally, my newest ikea creation!... As a photographer and children's book designer, I need a lot of paper storage. This is my newest creation, 2 stacks of Ikea's Fira drawers, with a small table top holding them all together! Please ignore the 2 really pathetic looking planets on top of it. They were just repotted! I swear!" - S.C.
