        I work out of here mostly, we have an office downtown but it's no fun, and since I'm half the business, well let's just say my partner and I have an understanding. Though I will say it's great ( the downtown office) for impressing clients.
        My office is on the left side. The building is an old 1 room school house I converted into our home 20+ years ago.
        We love it here. Just outside of Madison.

          No kidding...Madison you say?! I'm a cheesehead myself, even though I have relocated to Cali a number of years ago. I used to live just east of Oshkosh in a little town called Wautoma....population 1629. 😄

            I too have built a nice little studio in my home. I like it. AFter 25 years in a big studio it is good, others join me on projects here. But I have lots of work to do on the house--I'm a product designer. The painting is the view out my window, minus a few roofs in the way!

                haha- this thread is confirming what I always suspected- that most forum regulars are self-employed or at least work from home. Maybe forums and bosses aren't such a good combination 😄

                  well... my office is now at the house...after i bought my laptop I went to the office mostly for scheduled appointments. It felt silly to get up early, start working, and after the kids were at school, shutdown and move it all to the office just to have to move it again in 7 hours, I made myself at least an hour a day by staying where my laptop was plugged in. All the equipment at the office was just waiting for a job to be finished.. that is when I would camp out for a day or so plotting and printing. What a drag!...The laptop allowed me to camp out in the back store room of my garage and work, until I had an appointmet... until my daughter got to big to live at home and vacated her bedroom! Her room made the perfect office. North light, ground floor, front door, in town location, and big enough for my work station setup.
                  So for the past 6 months I have been trying out the home office thing. Sent all the phones to my cell, hired a print service, moved the machines to the garage, and now I can work 24/7, I am so glad to be out of the office! The internet has really changed the way I do business. Funny thing is...I work more now and have more contracts than I ever did with a main street "location" and shingle. I kind of disappeared from the radar... go figure..

                          I work for a trade show & museum exhibit company in a suburb of Milwaukee, WI USA.

                          The one thing I appreciate the most in our office building, connected to our shops, warehouse and docks, are that the windows open to let in fresh air. My office is the last door on the left. I also enjoy seeing deer and other wildlife in the woods outside my office window.

                              I'm so glad I don't actually "work" anymore. Else I'd have to show you spoiled brats a pretty sad sight.
                              Google Earth shows a few treetops and some roofs which disappeared two years and two days ago.
                              Anyway, it's fun looking at the posts.

                                I had worked in this building for 13 years:

                                and now work in:

                                301 Moved Permanently

                                The University is a former factory which has been converted to what you see there. Steelcase recently sold its brown field factories to the north and east and they are now in the process of being torn down. About 50 feet from my office is the new 'edge' of the building.

                                I created Dilbertville, sorry about that...

                                  Tobobo - I've always had the idea that Birmingham was a very polluted city - but when I think about it, that must have been a long time ago.

                                  I notice that you've always on holiday [street] even when at work. 😉

                                  Our fantasies keep us safe and sane in an incomprehensible, indifferent universe: inevitably we comprehend them as reality itself.

                                        Toby - The trees do make a difference [to the pollution and the view] - especially those in that shot. The work of a mature landscape architect no doubt? 😉

                                        As for the population - you'd know more about that than I would. I'm not picking that hairy chestnut out of the fire.

                                        I'll be heading to the Northern Hemisphere in about 10 days and don't want to get off on the wrong foot.

                                          I've had such a dense day today, it all started with me forgetting my lunch.

                                          The pollution is much better now, thanks to the public realm improvements such as the bull ring
