Jonathan Dowland: Our study, 2025

We’re currently thinking of renovating our study/home office. I’ll likely write
more about that project. Embarking on it reminded me that I’d taken a photo of
the state of it nearly a year ago and forgot to post it, so here it is.

Home workspace, January 2025

When I took that pic last January, it had been three years since the last one,
and the major difference was a reduction in clutter. I’ve added a lava lamp (charity
shop find) and Rob Sheridan print. We got rid of the
POÄNG chair (originally bought
for breast feeding) so we currently have no alternate seating besides the desk chair.

As much as I love my vintage mahogany writing desk, our current thinking is
it’s likely to go. I’m exploring whether we could fit in two smaller desks: one
main one for the computer, and another “workbench” for play: the
synthesiser, Amiga, crafting and 3d
printing projects, etc.
