Workspace of the Week: A revamped work room

This week’s Workspace of the Week is VincentVega77′s streamlined office:

I think it was the task lighting on and above the desk that initially caught my attention with this office. When you have multiple lighting options, you can adjust the illumination to fit your mood and keep you on task. After noticing the lighting, I realized I didn’t notice the cables, which is a great achievement with two monitors, two keyboards, and two computers. The cables are corralled wonderfully on the desk and also along the baseboards. Finally, I liked how VincentVega77 took advantage of the storage unit to keep the workspace clear of clutter. This is a terrific example of an uncluttered office.

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.

    I love the wall-mount cabinetry, but you’re right, it’s the task lighting that makes this office.

    I’ve got task lighting on top of my bookcases and a floor lamp too and it is so versatile. I should get my act together and take some pictures for the pool.

    Don’t know if I could work in a place this clean! I would not be able to reach the cupboard above the desk without a step stool.

    I could definitely use some cable organizing magic.

    Great color combo, too – the reddish wood floor, dark wood furniture, and misty blue walls. Energizing without being “loud.”

    Was going to comment on the color combo as well and noticed ChaCha1 beat me to the punch. Very clean aesthetics. Great job by the designer.

    It’s a beautiful, calming space, but I gotta say that the overhead lighting was the first thing to catch my attention too.

    I used to work under can lights, and it was not good. Even if you wear very thin glasses, the can lights shine into the tops of your lenses and illuminate all the cracks and scratches. A large scratch can actually refract the light so that the can above your head shines right into your eye.
