I am a freelance filmmaker, photographer and content creator based in Västervik, Sweden.
I have collaborated with a variety of clients, ranging from celebrities like Björn Ulvaeus to a luxury Italian yachts brand.
While living in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, I started my own business called Denhef Digital. It's named after the De Hef bridge that survived World War II.
David Wall runs several businesses, including photo & filmmaking services, desk mat production, and accounting practice
I do have a side project under the same name. It's an online shop selling leather and wool desk mats.
Also, I designed a watch in 2015 which was released under the brand name John Late. It's a fictional character based on my own trait of always being late.
Since creative thinking is an integral part of who I am, it's crucial for me to have a cosy place where I can develop and implement new ideas.
It took quite some time and effort to build my studio space, but now it helps me stay inspired and motivated.
If you ask me, it's primarily a desk that makes a proper workspace. The trickiest part though is finding one of the right size.
I struggled quite a bit with that as a standard IKEA 160×80 cm desk was too big for my needs and a 120×60 cm one seemed too small.
That's why I decided to customise a kitchen countertop and turn it into a desk. Then I bought a motorised desk raiser, placed a custom-made 150×65 cm piece on it, smoothed out the untreated wood with some sandpaper and finally applied a dark brown oil stain.
Having made his desk worktop to his own measurements, David sanded and stained the surface by himself
My workspace is constantly changing.
Different brands I work with send me their new studio monitors, audio interfaces, headphones and other gear. I keep some of them and send the rest back. I would say around 40% of my setup comes from collaboration with brands.\
