creative desks: adrienne breaux
I’m a writer, blogger, design nerd, crafter, photographer and wit master here in Austin. A graduate of Louisiana State University with a B.A. in Interior Design, I worked in the design field for years at a number of different design jobs, ran my own interior design consulting firm for over a year, and now do all sorts of freelance writing for the web and in print on the subjects of interior design, architecture, furniture, home design tips, the modern family, eco-friendly ideas, Austin and more. When I’m not writing about creating perfect spaces and fabulous designs, I enjoy making things and more writing. I’m currently still trying to find that perfect balance of somehow managing to do copious amounts of it all. I’ll keep you updated on my progress. When I’m not doing any of the above mentioned, I can usually be found hiking, walking or running around the Greenbelt or Town Lake. I also really like smoothies, sushi and Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Jaime Derringer, editor of Design Milk and Dog Milk, lover of cheese, design enthusiast...
This is where I work and play all day, every day. Although I have a laptop, I like working at my desk best - it motivates me to get things done. Otherwise, I'll get distracted and end up in a black hole of Bravo TV and Doritos. My desk isn't usually this clean, but I try to keep it fairly tidy or I can't work. My office is one room in our new house that needs to be redesigned, since it also functions as the laundry room. We've been pretty busy with other projects, including a baby on the way, but one of these days I'll get to it...

This is the working desk of John & Sherry Petersik, who run a home improvement website called younghouselove.com. It was really just a hobby/passion that somehow turned into a full time job and no one is more surprised than they are. But they love blogging the days away and DIYing the nights away! They even built the desk they work at every day with secondhand $1 cabinets!

creative desks: marcus fairs
The Dezeen offices are in a converted doctor's surgery in Stoke Newington, north London. Despite being a global website we are very proud of our neighbourhood and try to work with local people whenever we can - our graphic designer and our developer both live nearby, for example. Philippe Malouin, a designer who also lives in Stoke Newington, did the interior design for us using off-the-shelf materials and bespoke fixtures. The idea was to create something glamorous and dramatic on a very low budget. He also has a book available now: Dezeen Book of Ideas.

browne street house
We love how the folks of Freshome (where we spotted this beautiful home) describe this architecture: full of voids and volumes that create interesting shapes to the exterior of the space, as well as pretty interesting shapes in the inside. It’s this manipulation of space so deftly that proves that Shaun Lockyer Architects are masters at architecture and understanding that people want interesting homes. We like that they play with your expectations…like in the kitchen and dining room. The same wood material is placed on the floor and on the kitchen island, making the two almost distinguishable and your eye a little confused. Filled with interesting furniture choices, this place is pretty amazing.

AA house

House in Abiko by fuse-atelier
Conceived for a couple who collects furniture as a hobby, the design revolves around an open and brought living room that is flexible for multiple configurations.
Situated on a tight site flanked by neighboring structures, the monolithic form is constructed from reinforced concrete and features a multitude of faceted corners. Two volumes protrude out of the street facade to create an overhang above the entrance and the car park. The larger cantilevered arm is fronted with a single plane of glass which permits sunlight to enter the interior.
