            I live and work in Dubrovnik,Croatia. We have offices on the second floor of this building,
            in the towns center. There we receive clients
            and hold presentations but I come there one or two days a week.I have another office 100 meters from my home where I do most of my work in peace . Its a small 35 m2 office and nobody ever comes here.

              i have the luck of living and working at the same place. what you see is the house i build for myself in 2005. my office (a studio, really) is at the back of the site and enjoys a view to a small garden. (the black spot on the lower left corner is pep, my labrador, the office's pet)

              other than that i go to the university two mornings and two evenings every week to teach.

                Hello All
                We are located here: http://local.live.com/default.aspx?wip=2&v=2&style=r&rtp=~&&cp=40.94~-76.685&lvl=9&sp=aN.40.94_-76.685_Zartman%20Construction&msnurl=map.aspx?L%3dUSA%26C%3d40.94%2c-76.685%26A%3d57.35%26P%3d%7c40.94%2c-76.685%7c1%7cZartman+Construction%7cL1%7c%26redirect%3dfalse&msnculture=en-US

                The building that we are in is a remodeled lumber yard. The pic you see is right when we got complete with the exterior.

                    Hello Eric,
                    Not any more.
                    This building was used as the showroom. There is 5 other buildings in the rear of this one where they use to store the materials. The building you see we have two engineers, 12 project managers, 6 estimators, 3 project helpers, 2 cad operators, 3 production managers, one safety manager, 2 market managers and a full department for accounting (8 people in total). The buildings in the back of this one we use for our equipment and material storage.

                      I work from a converted bedroom at home. That's us...the top barn, running East-West. You can even see my old green car parked out front...the photo's about 5 years old.
                      I turn my head and I have a nice view south across the fields to the sand dunes, river and the Welsh mountains beyond.

                      I'd be about a half hour's drive from Alan Wood.

                        I'm way down here.

                        I 'work' from home with a twin screen setup in front, the view of my neighbour's heritage listed garden and house on my right, and to my left, my living room with a view to my garden and the street - on the other side of the hedge.

                        Behind me is my kitchen [see http://www.sketchucation.com/community/forums/suc/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=522 ] and adjoining verandah which gives a wonderful view of my other neighbour's new carpark [previously the site of a 20 year old rain forest which I planted 32 years ago].

                        Home sweet home.

                            I work from a home office I share with my wife. (Yes, we are together nearly 24/7/365 but I have to say that is a good thing). We live in a fairly rural area not far from our island's major city. Most of you probably wouldn't even call Charlottetown a city since its population is under 40,000 people. Anyways, where we live/work is a place called 'Mermaid'. It isn't really a town, just a geographical area. We look out on a fairly wide (but short river). We are near the mouth of the river so it is tidal. I attach a panorama showing the view from our home. The panorama was taken from the deck that is above our small office. We have the same panoramic view from the office -- just from a lower angle.

                            Regards, Ross

                              Very nice indeed. I bet you waited to post in this thread so you could cut your grass that way first 😉 Do you start at the tree and move outwards ❓

                                I'm very much enjoying this thread. Great to see where you guys work and especially nice to see so many work from home.

                                Eric -- would you believe those rings are crop circles left by alien visitors? Okay don't believe it. I mow from the trees out in growing spirals. I like the pattern and it makes mowing over an acre of lawn a little more enjoyable. Practically every house here has a lawn tractor -- we need them as large lawns are common.

                                  Love the lawn - especially because it's green. Mine's tiny and brown.

                                  We'er in the middle of the worst drought on record so water restrictions mean no water for lawns. I use the bath water for plants and shrubs though we are allowed to bucket water [no hoses or irrigation systems] for a few hours on certain days.

                                  I'm so anal that if I had your lawn tractor I'd have every blade of grass trimmed right up to the edge of the bitumen road. 😉

                                    Bernard,
                                    That is actually very interesting that you bring this up, I heard on a news program that it is dire straights right now for Australia, and that the Gov't had a plan to evacuate up to 20 million people (or something huge like that) - Sounds really terrible, crops are withering because of the drought and no water exists for irrigation, because you guys need to drink etc.. is it really this bad, or is this newsmongering - or what's the sitch- I'd really be curious.

                                    Whether they find a life there or not, I think Jupiter should be called an enemy planet.

                                      It is quite serious - but there is always the media hype.

                                      The drought has affected the whole country with reduced rainfall but some areas are much harder hit than others. Its impact on urban populations has been mostly through water restrictions because dams are running dry. Here in Brisbane our biggest dam is 18% full but Rockhampton [400 miles north], where my family live, will never run out because it gets its water from the Fitzroy River - one of the biggest in the country. Our garden in Rocky is very green and lush.

                                      NEWS FLASH: It is raining! My rainwater tank [13,500 litres] is nearly full! Yippie! . . . and more is forecast. This is the most rain we have had for 2 years. It's weird since we normally get most of our rain in summer. Winter started here on the 1st June and day temperatures are still in the mid 20s - Celsius.

                                      What is much more serious is the drought's affect on the Murray/Darling River system - the nation's largest. It has been used and abused ever since white settlement began 200 years ago. There are more agricultural water licenses taking water out than there is water to allocate. Parts of it are often just a series of waterholes contaminated by blue-green algae.

                                      It has been a political football for decades with the environment coming out the looser. This drought may make politicians finally do something but any solution is going to take a long long time. Global warming may just be the catalyst to get all the vested interests to co-operate for the benefit of all.

                                      Unfortunately it is far away from the areas of population on the coast where the votes are. It will take a catastrophe to make them wake up. This may just be it.

                                      Bernard

                                        I work in a converted stableblock, Ecclesmachan, Scotland.

                                        We're out in the sticks- GoogleEarth's image is so low-resolution it's not even worth linking.
