Workspace of the Week: Lightly contained
This week’s Workspace of the Week is T_dimensional’s splendid space:
It was gray and blah outside when I went looking for offices for this week’s Workspace of the Week. When I stumbled onto T_dimensional’s bright entry, I knew it was going to be my selection. The lightness in this room immediately lifted my spirits.
Most of the furniture in this office appears to be from Ikea. The desk is the Vika Blecket combined with the Vika Arthur. The organizing tins and picture frames are also Ikea — even the little wooden man on the corner of the desk. However, if you look at the top image closely, you’ll see that the figures inside the cupboards are anything but Ikea. I particularly like how the collection of figurines is contained in the cabinets, but still visible through the glass. Additionally, I like how everyday objects (like the soup can) are recycled into desk organizers. Thank you, T_dimensional, for such a bright entry to our collection.
Want to have your own workspace featured in Workspace of the Week? Submit a picture to the Unclutterer flickr pool. Check it out because we have a nice little community brewing there. Also, don’t forget that workspaces aren’t just desks. If you’re a cook, it’s a kitchen; if you’re a carpenter, it’s your workbench.

T_dimensional, what a fabulous place to do work! I too love the soup can as a pencil holder that’s a great idea and really fits in with your space. Congrats on your workspace of the week it’s very inspirational!

I am loving that wall with the stickie notes that also can be written on!

I’m happy to see one where you don’t sit with your back to the door!
T_dimensional, are you doing OK ergonomically?

Very sleek and clean (at least when these photos were taken!)
But for some reason, the first thing I thought when I saw the photos was “Starbucks, Apple, Apple, Ikea, Campbell’s”!

Very nice. I love the computer’s desktop screen.

Great space! I’m curious -what is the slab of frosted glass on the desktop? Functional or decorative? Either way – very serene…

Nice. Though it looks like the cables magically disappeared. No laptop power and no ipod charger/sync cable.

[...] as our own again, I like to think our respective spaces would look something like Unclutterer’s workspace of the week (…this week). Simply incredible. Droool! On a side note, can you find the [...]

Thank you Erin, for this opportunity, It was my pleasure to inspire.
to clarify on some things:
I’m an Architect so my desk is actually double purpose, it can be converted into a drafting table, the glass portion is a light box for tracing in case I needed to. regarding the desk position I kinda like it on the center so I can have a choice where to sit, and yes I can face the window if the glare is unbearable. this was suppose to be just a pictorial but it became a habit and believe me things are getting done faster.
my cables and wires are kept inside the ikea tin box where it does not create clutter and still makes them within reach, the wooden guy sometimes carry my earbuds and sync cables temporarily.
the apple time capsule makes it possible for me to eliminate more wires and I print via network to my printer (hidden) in the deeper cabinet in the corner.
the room is not as big as it looks so everything is double purpose, the enamel glass between the cabinet thus serves as a white board and sticky corner all the way. I did the same for my kitchen wall and its actually easier to maintain.
as for the campbell soup, I’m an Andy Warhol fan, I’ve heard rumors of it being phase out in England and I want to keep the original container just in case, besides it looks cool in my little SOHO.
