    Describe your studio

    If you have a studio, did you:

    A) Purchase your desks, chairs, file cabinets, etc., new from a store?

    B) Purchase new and mix it with what you had?

    C) Make do with used stuff?

    D) Make it from parts -- building some of it yourself -- and making do with stuff you already had?

    E) All of the above?

    Mine is E; all of the above. I have new, used, and stuff I made from what I had + parts I had to make.

    Doesn't matter! A studio is a studio. Mine happens to be an art studio, though with the computer, printer, and wireless bits and pieces about the place, you might think it was a computer lab. But, we artist/designers need computers today, don't we?

    E , one thing I really needed is a giant size table to work on so I actually have 2 tables stuck together to form a big one so I can place a1 paper sheets on it. Laptop with an external old 15inch tft and a3 printer. Mainly 2 screens so I can work and play at the same time muahahaha instead of getting distracted to play facebook games and not working I just now do both at the time.

    My Studio Crew.

    1 Unit Core2Duo PC for Internet & Browsing.
    1 Unit 17"Laptop for music and games
    1 Unit G5 my design assistant.
    1 Unit Standard Color Laserjet and old canon scanner.

    after finishing color testing prints and before submit to clients or contests, I Always put that sample in the wall around me, give me more energy when I see them.

    of course coffee and snacks give me extra calories when work with clients in different time zone

    I think my answer would be B) :] I have quite a lot of stuff in my studio....kind of makes me feel like organizing it a bit.

    I've got a phone, fax machine, my laptop, laptop speakers, my Wacom tablet, a heat press, a lamination machine, my regular printer, a large format printer, a television, a collection of DVDs and CDs for inspiration, and a microwave (great for busy meal times )

    My studio is in my head, pretty much crowded with unused stuff too
    The physical studio? Well, just ordinary desk with a 17inch crt monitor fighting for a place against my printer, one sempron linux pc (half opened like Simplest)
    Chung Dha, it's cool about you applying multitasking and multithreading between game and work
