Submissions: Create Your Ideal Workspace

Last month we challenged the GOOD community to "Create Your Ideal Workspace." We received fantastic submissions that transform the conventional desk and chair, deconstructing the components of productivity and inspiration in the very space which they are created. Check out our top picks and vote for your favorite entry below. 

The winner will receive a GOOD t-shirt and a year's subscription to keep or send to a friend. Voting will remain open through Thursday, December 15, and we'll announce the winner on Friday, December 16.

It's always been a dream, perhaps a nightmare, of mine to have a studio space at the top of a lighthouse in which to work on my art and design. There would be other small rooms: bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, but instead of a light there would be my

I'm a freelance graphic designer working from home now. I find the more I take out off my office - the more I get out of it. Scaling it down to a few key pieces is important in keeping my work and mind less cluttered. I like the idea of an office

It won't look exactly like this, but this is roughly what I want. Yes, I'm aware it's not really an office, but a small farm, but it's what I really, really want to own one day. I shouldn't need much of an office again, except to s

I'm sure tons of artists have a set up very similar to this. What makes it my dream workspace is that it represents the fac

This Treehouse Workspace includes everything needed for successful creativity, including a retractable rope ladder and a slide within the tree trunk. Maybe there's even a tiger pit underground to keep away unwanted clients?
