Gallery: A Cool Dozen Cult of Mac Fan Workspaces

William_Lockie.jpg

Moving closer to the more simple end of the set-up spectrum, William Lockie’s whole family gets it done from this neat and tidy workspace: his MacBookPro and iPhone, his mum’s lamp iMac and his dad’s iMac 24 and iPhone. He says, “We’re die-hard apple fans!”

There’s no more here than a last generation Mac mini with Belkin Companion and iPod, but we love Ap May’s simple, clean, inviting workspace.

Andrew MacDonald has an impressively minimalist approach, too, with a 24’ iMac, his Macbook and his iPhone 3GS.

We’d be remiss in failing to thank AurĂ©lian Lewin for giving us a look at his groovy lava lamp and the killer wallpaper he’s got on the 17’ MacBook Pro, would we not?

Jan-Peter Herberger’s desk is made of black MDF — it’s 5 meters long and hollow where all cables are drawn… making this a lovely minimalist partners’ workstation with what looks like a 24’ iMac and a 15’ MacBook. Nice.

We featured our friend Bob Eckstein’s workspace a while back in a piece on Steampunk. The New York-based cartoonist is hard at work on a graphic novel about 19th century British whalers, so he covered all his Apple gear in scraps of driftwood and transformed his office into something resembling the Captain’s Quarters of an 19th century whaling ship. Aargh, matey!

Magic Mouse Giveaway Winning Workspace Photo

Damian_Rintelman.jpg

Speaking of office transformations, we leave you with Damian Rintelman’s ‘office of the future,’ which is actually the result of a prank played on him by co-workers. Somewhere underneath all that foil is a 15’ MacBook Pro, multiple external hard drives, two LCD monitors, keyboards, and more.

Remember these are just a dozen of over 90 workspace photos submitted by fans of Cult of Mac and tomorrow’s Magic Mouse winner may not be one of these. Check out the Facebook fan page, become a fan, and submit your own workspace photo or other cool Apple-oriented shots and you may find it featured in a blog post down the road.

  • Alex

    From work

  • Joe

    I don’t have a Facebook account, but I sure wish I could have posted my workspace pics… Is there any way to email them in CoM?

  • http://www.samanjj.com saman Jebeli-Javan

    Wow some commentators are real whingers. Thanks for sharing everyone who sent a pic in.

  • Christian

    Thanks for posting my pic as part of the cool dozen work spaces… My three monitors are for the editing computer, with the big 24 inch monitor on the right being the client view one… when not hosting clients i use that monitor as a second screen for the macbook pro…

    Liked seeing what every one else works with this was a fun thing to follow thus far seeing all us mac fans out there and how we use our machines.

    Cheers

    “Christian Henning has a tidy editing suite running a G5 MacPro …” Probably you mean a PowerMac G5 ! ;-)

  • ged

    surely by def on CoM you cannot be cool with non-Apple products?

  • Jon

    on page one you have a typo. G5′s weren’t called mac pros, just PowerMac G5′s. Kinda surprised that such a mac focused blog doesn’t know this….

  • Mandy

    It’s nice to see Mac setups that aren’t completely barren and cold! I, however, prefer them that way. It’s just a nice change to see some atypical workspaces that look more lived in.

    @Al @Jon – thanks for the catch on the mis-ID of Christian’s PowerMac; what I get for writing this late at night.

  • Nils Bertrand

    Thanks for posting my office. I swear that I am a mac geek it’s just all that silly tinfoil was everywhere.

    Sean Caine here… Thanks for the feature – I’m flattered. That would be my HOME office in Miami, my New York one is tiny and ugly. My “office office” would be my iPhone… ofcourse.
