I’m just imagining the terror of getting a front wheel caught off the floor and suddenly falling forward with all your weight into a three legged table.

Luckily it has that beefy support string serving as the fourth “leg”

[-] Ilikepornaddict@lemmynsfw.com 5 points 1 year ago

Looks to be a rod of some sort, probably provides reasonable support. Still terrifying though.

Given the choice, I would take danger as my office mate over other humans.

You have to wear a climbing harness to work there.
And pound a piton into the ceiling above you.

Just put a noose around your neck while you work.

Working remotely for Tumblr.

~~living~~ working on the edge

It had stairs from the opposite side? That's terrifying!

[-] athos77@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure if the stairs are running right to left, or running back to front.

[-] Someone@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

The great big hole is there either way!

[-] BeigeAgenda@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

To me it looks like the normal work position is right against the wall, and it looks like there's just room for the feet.

I also hope the table is fastened to the wall.

When the design says storage but you think office space.

[-] Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk 5 points 1 year ago

Too much headroom. Would trigger my agoraphobia.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I hate these rooms with high ceilings.

[-] derpo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Omg I hope this is in the actual blablacar office

[-] kite@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

In addition to the obvious awful in this photo, the back right corner of that rug behind the chair makes the floor look like it's cracked and sinking 😬

[-] dreadedsemi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

No one will give you their work though, they don't want to "accidentally" tumble

[-] philluminati@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Only for desktop computers.

I honestly can't tell if this was AI generated or not

[-] candyman337@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Oh my got I had a dream where I had an office almost exactly like this, I almost fell down it several times, just like I would in real life!

[-] spookex@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I kinda like the concept, but the implementation is questionable

Is it somehow held to the ceiling with this puny string? Is that some electrical wire going nowhere?
I mean ... it could be usable with some security features? need to stop the weels from falling of the edge (better get a chair without weels), a proper handrail and some solid anchoring in the wall (or ceiling). There is some storage next to it, could be used when looking through that. Still requiers a solid heart to use though, I wouldn't do it.
How did that kind of space even ended up existing in the first place? Why ? So much questions ...

[-] SomeoneElse@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

My best guess is it’s a loft conversion, but rather than having just one big room they’ve partitioned off the part under the eaves for… reasons. They had to remove one of the back legs from the desk so it would fit, and made it a three legged table. The random cable is holding it up/steady. They have a wheeled chair and no safety rail because while they may work a desk job, they’re an adrenaline junkie at heart.

[-] just_chill@jlai.lu 3 points 1 year ago

Wanting to create two independent rooms so a weird corridor ends up there? Then stick an office in the way because why would you put it in one of the newly created rooms when you can have it in an unsafe, uncomfortable akward space. One where you cannot work properly because you get the sound from downstairs or smells if it's a kitchen. And annoy everyone else if you are in a call, because they need to be quiet and enjoy whatever you are discussing. Most best decision ever.

[-] soupspoon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Why is there just a janky chunk of beam at the top there

[-] SomeoneElse@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It’s structural - this is in the eaves of a loft conversion.
