Hey all, and thanks for reading about me and my setup! My name is Marc.
I’m a Project Manager for marketing and product development related topics.
After working freelance for around four years, I recently switched back to regular employment.
Now I work within a steady team and focus on specific projects/products, rather than collaborate with different clients all the time. It’s refreshing to be employed again and get all these employee benefits.
Currently, I’m working for a large asset manager in Germany; hence I’m based in the finance industry.
The Anglepoise lamp was invented in 1932 by a British designer George Carwardine
Besides working, I like to spend my days gaming, watching shows, meeting friends or spending quality time with my girlfriend.
Also, I just recently started to be more involved in photography after purchasing the Fujifilm X-T30.
Despite not really being able to right now, I also enjoy travelling and exploring new places (like many people probably).
I’ve been lucky enough to spend around 14 days in Tokyo in March 2020, just before the pandemic hit.
I can’t wait to go back there.
Japan has always been one of my dream destinations. Being there sparked my interest in exploring the country even more.
Plus, Tokyo is a superb place for street photography — highly recommended.
I’m a very clean person in general, so I like to keep all things I use tidy at all times. This especially includes my car, home and, of course, my setup.
So, when building my workspace, I had subtle colours, clean lines, only the essentials (while still adding some personal touch) and quality over quantity in mind.
Marc’s custom tabletop was made by a German cabinet maker. “I liked the thought of adding some traditional craftsmanship to my setup while also supporting local artisans”
I enjoy going for subtle colours as soothing to look at and easier to combine. As a fan of dark colours, I also wanted to include a lot of black and dark elements.
Therefore, I started to add more black & dark grey items from time to time while looking for higher quality brands as much as possible.
Generally, one main goal was to stay clutter-free and not add anything that I won’t frequently need, while neither going for too many design accessories.
A plant and the picture (November, by Lena Wigers) are all I need to add some personal touch but still keep things rather minimal.
