The oh so popular, artsy-fartsy voyeuristic "show me your desk" trend has made its way over to PingMag, but with a little twist. Keeping in mind UK-JAPAN 2008, "a year-long season of exciting events, performances and exhibitions to showcase the UK's contemporary creativity in the arts, in science and innovation, and in creative industries," only desks from the UK and Japan are showcased here. And another noticeable (and welcome) difference is the departure from the strictly Mac minimal and perfectly hipster-fied designer desks we're all used to seeing--check out the blissful chaos of white-screen.jp editor Kana's desk!

All desks can be seen on PingMag's Flickr.
