HundevadFan here. I'm delighted to have been chosen for Unclutterer's "Workplace of the Week". Thanks for the very kind comments. To be sure, it WAS my intent to make my Flickr photographs public. Indeed I chose the setting "Anyone can see this photo" for all 3 images. Not sure what I need to do to make the links public, but would be happy to do so. Please advise. The featured piece is teak and is vintage Danish Modern, designed by Poul Hundevad (thus my "name") and I won it on a 2005 ebay auction for $900 from a terrific vendor in Norway/Canada who has, very unfortunately, since stopped selling on ebay. The chair is an authentic HermanMiller Mirra, which I chose as an affordable alternative to the Aeron, and it pretty much stays put since the desktop is almost always down for work purposes. The stereo is indeed a Tivoli Audio "Executive Music System" in special wenge finish for Frontgate. My wonderful wife spotted it in the Frontgate catalog and it is perfect for the space. @Don: I've got another bookshelf (also by Hundevad) full of books, so the secretary only holds what will fit. And these days I mostly download music on iTunes, so the CD collection is unlikely to grow beyond what is already there. The cleanest image of the unit is at this link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/40513537@N04/3728222348/in/photostream/ Thanks again to all for the very nice comments! Hello all. HundevadFan here.

I'm puzzled though, what happens when HundevadFan gets another CD or book? For those admiring the piece I suspect the "nickname" alludes to Poul Hundevad, he's a Danish furniture designer.

There are some real gems in my local (Portland, OR), both by owner and dealer. Snitzels – search your local Craigslist furniture section for “mid century” or “danish” or “secretary”.

So beautiful! This setup would never work for me, but I envy it anyway. (Usually if something isn't practical for me, it'll stop my envy in its tracks, but not this time!) And the Tivoli stereo is perfect right there. Wow! So beautiful! This setup would never work for me, but I envy it anyway.

That is one of the requirements to submit to the pool. I just don't usually post the private pictures because you can't click on them. @Khurt — If you submit it to our flickr pool, it’s fair game.
