Oh, didn't think that'd make it to the front page, appreciated! OP and builder here.

The website was purely because a friend and I were looking for design work during lockdown and put together a couple of things we recently worked on, but basic design and build was a fun ~6 months solo project.

We had a good discussion on https://www.reddit.com/r/architecture/comments/1mlo6hu/tryin... over the weekend with more details, but also happy to answer any questions here.

Sick flight sim setup!

I basically never sim now because of how much of a hassle it is to get the whole thing setup. And then it just sits taking up space on the desk and I don't use the desktop for anything else for a while.

		Thanks! And: Same. It got much better since the early days of MSFS 2020, and tried picking gear that has solid drivers/good scripting APIs, but I also rarely get it out just for fun, for the same reasons (except the occasional barrel rolls in a TBM over Manhattan cravings). It is great to have for a bunch of practice runs before actually heading to a new airport for the first time though.

This looks very charming, but how do you keep it dusted/clean practically?

		Small room size helped a lot: Blueair HEPA filter with a (long, think Ostrich) feather duster for day to day, and ~ weekly wet wipe / vacuum.

It looks great, but, (no offense), that looks like the most uncomfortable home-office seating arrangement of all time. Your legs can't fit under the desk, and the low-back chair looks like it's for show, not sitting. I fear for your back!

		None taken! Cut the shelving to my (elbows at 90 degrees) standing desk height and used it that way about 80% of the time, and for the rest the drafting height barstool like chair worked well, as the legs are naturally angled.

Well done, this is inspiring. I've bookmarked and downloaded the PDF for future renovations myself.

Looking through other comments here, it's absolutely wild how a tech-oriented audience are happy to completely disregard traditional design (interior, graphic, UI, ...), while championing technology design (systems & databases).

What brand of keyboard (the music keyboard) do you have there? It's quite narrow isn't it?

		Korg D1, indeed, good combination of solid full size keys in a slim package.

This is honestly one of the most appealing WFH spaces I've ever seen. MDF desk tops aside (I would've gone with cherry), I love this. I'm gonna need to steal the idea with the central switch board and look into industrial shelves...

This is fantastic! Does this showcase mean that you’d be open to doing similar design/builds? I have a small space with similar requirements. Although about double the size of this…

Hi, where do you get your industrial shelving?

		I have a workbench from GI. It’s built like a tank and looks good, with a Boos Brothers solid maple top. YMMV but when I told them a big part of it came bent in shipping, they DGAF. That was not a good experience.

Was the decision to not support reader mode deliberate or accidental?
