ACL is an interesting venue for this particular set of photos, since I remember you did a few features on people's workspaces a few months ago (not sure if that's still happening, but I remember reading about Eugene Tong's desk and some other interesting ones).

ACL ever think of having readers submit pics of their own workspaces? With the clientele found on these pages I would love to see what everyone surrounds their workspace with.

So many jobs today are in the ephemeral realm of "solutions" and "information," where the only thing made with hands is carpal tunnel syndrome. I'm a victim of this, as my desk is centered around the computer and typing. These images really show how much more we can do with our hands if only we were motivated to do so. Perhaps Rag & Bone is trying to promote a return to industrial industriousness, but then, as other commenters posted, why are they abandoning American sewing tables for those overseas?

I'll have to pop in and check them out in person. I'm hoping they're printed large enough and hung at the appropriate level that I can imagine actually sitting at each of the work areas.
