Tech Tour: Beamer Wilkins' Workspace Obsession

Name: Beamer Wilkins
Location: Austin, TX
Office: 1000 sq feet
Living Space: 400 sq feet.

Beamer Wilkins is the owner of the San Jose and Austin network of programming companies under the banner of TRNSFR, a ridiculously admirable accomplishment at the age of just 25. But we're equally as impressed with his Austin home office setup, which includes a couple desktop workspaces which integrate his obvious obsession of vinyl collectibles with his home tech equipment, including a myriad of music and computer toys all shown below...

 
 

Beamer's living room space

No real rigs. Just obsession with hiding wires. I'm a zip-tie magician. The only real "rig" on my current home setup (MacBook Pro, 23" cinema display) is moving one of the overhead shelves beneath the desk to hold all my business so the desk can look nice 'n clean.

Beamer notes he's moved to a new office in downtown San Jose with a smaller 1,100 square feet, but with similar organization and layout, a temporary loft until he finds a place to purchase to live/work for his business.

Thanks to Beamer for allowing to share this peek inside his previous work space, and we look forward to seeing what he does with his future space.

The Desk looks like Fredrik from Ikea in White with one of the shelves placed underneath, a pretty neat idea. I have essentially the same desk, I think I may do that.

The entertainment center is elfa birch and platinum freestanding unit and to the left of that is a Ladoro shelving unit similar to this one, but a bit wider. The setup with all of the figures looks like elfa Sycamore & Platinum setup with a ton of shelves and a set of flanking file cabinets.

Workstation is 'Jerker' from Ikea. Never seen it in white. Really nice and would age really well, unlike the birch veneer I always see it in.
