I have the worlds smallest bedroom, so thought I'd post my TV set up too.
In order to get more space, everything got thrown on the wall!

Don't really have any space to deal with. I'll be upgrading to a bigger desk soon. I need to rearrange the room & move some stuff out. I'll update as soon as I do.

Whoa - where did you get that workstation!? I have an 88-key keyboard that I'd love to have on a slide-out shelf like that!

I designed and built the desk out of necessity; Couldn't find any solutions that fit my needs and wants. I ended up taking the keyboard's casing off to save space.

What did you use for the keyboard slide out tray? I've been looking for a piano/keyboard slide out tray for ages that would fit a 61 key keyboard.

It's a 54" long 3/8" thick piece of oak that I stained and mounted with 10" drawer slides rated to support 150 lbs of weight.

Nothing much changed. iPad is gone and I bought a new MacBook Air 11".
iPhone 4S quality photo's.

In the picture:

- iMac 27" (late 2010) 2.93 i7 w/ 120Gb Vertex 3 + 1TB HD and 16GB RAM
- MacBook Air 11' (late 2011) 1.6 i5 w/ 128GB SSD and 4GB ram (much easier for my university needs)
- Hercules XPS 101 Audio System
-2TB Time Capsule

Not included:

- White iPhone 4S 32GB

Future plans:
Very first update will be buying an older iMac 27 Late 2009 (3.06Ghz C2D) model to use as an secondary monitor. It will hang on the wall making this a dual 27" setup. I wil not buy 27" Cinema Display because it does not look good next to 27" iMac on the wall. And those late 2009 iMac's are starting to around the 1000 euro's here in Holland. (the price of an new 27" Cinema Display as well)

Where can I get that chair? :cool:

Overstock, I think. It's been a while! There are chairs like this everywhere, however, so it shouldn't be too hard to find one.

Unfortunately, this one is about to be replaced because of its little to no comfort.

Update: This specific chair in the photo is a knockoff Eames chair. Hence why it has to go.

Those are Eames chairs, so through Herman Miller. If it's bought through overstock it's probably a replica and won't be the amazing quality that Eames furniture is.

I have a replica and its the same build quality as the original Eames chair.

It's not worth paying 4X the price for the same thing IMO.

How did you hide the cables? Great use of space BTW :)

Thanks!

Basically there is a small square of the wall cut out where the consoles are on the shelf, and a second square cut out behind the TV. I fed the wires down through the inside of the wall so they literally just peak out and plug into the tv / consoles etc.

:)
It has saved me loads of space!
