<p>Pretty amazing looking home office that is in actual fact a converted garage.</p>
<p>The owner says:</p>
<p>This was originally a double garage built into my house. I fitted it out with several inches of sound proof insulation, installed an air-con unit to heat and cool then painted it white to emphasise the light. Fitting it from scratch allowed me to get the wiring all hidden away, I have cAT5 everywhere, OF speaker cable in the ceiling and coax for various purposes all linked into the patch panel.</p>
<p>The room serves several purposes, I work from home so it&#8217;s my office, I love movies so it&#8217;s my home cinema room, I&#8217;m passionate about photography so it&#8217;s my photo studio and I like to built / hack stuff so it&#8217;s my lab.</p>
<p>Much of the equipment was salvaged and repaired, like the HD projector and 24U rack cabinet. The 27&#8243; and 26&#8243; dual head display is the only real extravagance, I&#8217;m a sucker for big screens <img src='http://www.nexus-publishing.co.uk/wordpress/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /></p>

<p><strong>Notebook with pencil</strong></p>
<p>Always having a notebook handy no matter where you are is a must. To jot down notes, thoughts and ideas when they strike is a business essential. Carrying a notebook is easy, but how many times have you lost the pen of pencil you thought you had? This great idea solves this problem in a stroke. Don&#8217;t leave home without yours.</p>

<p><strong>Bathroom Drinks Holder</strong></p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know about you, but I do like a soak especially on a Friday - really looking forward to tonights - to relax after a long week at the keyboard. Warm bath and a drop of your favourite vino must be a match made in heaven. But I have more than once dropped my glass in the bath, or knocked it off the shelf. This simple solution is just one of those ideas you wonder why you didn&#8217;t think of it first!</p>

Mug with biscuit shelf
If like me you seem to eat your way through a mountain of biscuits in any given working week, this innovative mug is a great idea. Keep your favourite dunker safe and ready with the built in shelf. Watch out though, chocolate biscuits are definitely not a good idea with this mug.

<p>If like me the underneath of your desk looks like a bird&#8217;s nest of cables and extension cords, this concept for a folding plug could be the answer to at least reducing the bulk of the plugs we use. The concept is from a UK designer  Min Kyo Choi. No word on any patents or when you can buy them, but fingers crossed one of the electrical manufacturers takes this idea up as I think it&#8217;s superb.</p>

<p>Ever feel pain while computing or reading                                        in bed? then <a href="http://www.leisupod.com/index.html" title="Link to LeisuPod website" target="_blank">LeisuPod</a> is the answer. Taking                                        away the restrictions of normal tables,                                        LeisuPod is a flexible and foldable desk                                        that can be used in bed, on sofa, in the                                        garden, on the beach, virtually anywhere!                                        LeisuPod&#8217;s unique design provides comfort                                        and convenience for all kinds of tasks you                                        wish to enjoy at leisure.</p>
<p><span class="leftpaneltext" align="justify">Allowing you to relax over your work, LeisuPod                                        foldable desks provide a smooth and secure                                        surface in the absence of a table. However,                                        placing them on top of a table will give                                        you an optimum viewing angle and even enable                                        you to use a standard-sized keyboard underneath.                                        All of a sudden, laptop computing becomes                                        more enjoyable and lets you combine business                                        with leisure.</span></p>
<p><span class="leftpaneltext" align="justify">Yes, LeisuPod flexible desks allow you to                                        alter both the angle and height of the desktop.                                        You can fix them up for your particular                                        situation, propping up magazines and books                                        or placing laptops down flat at the right                                        distance from your eyes. What&#8217;s more, a                                        plastic stopper and an elastic band secure                                        everything in place so there&#8217;s no risk of                                        slipping off, even at a 90 degree angle!</span></p>
