Just updated my desk, a lot of items are from suggestions from here. Pretty happy with outcome. I use a large dining table for work (a lot of drawing, gaming and planning happens here as well).

Pretty cool! Congratulations. Looks awesome! Does it generally stay that clean?
d
Umm… Yeah. Only missing things are: Waterbottle, wallet and may be some snacks.

yayy..same pinch with the keyboard-mouse combo. And setup is cool. You got that new monitor based in the thread posted here? How is it and what model is this ?
d
Yeah, Loving this combo specially the mouse for the gesture support for mac.
The display is at par with macbook pro retina and is HDR 10 (for gaming etc)
c
Yes, even I had not expected the mouse to be so feature rich. I suggest to also get an amazon basic mouse/keyboard pad.
d
Yeah, looking at some larger ones, also need a background for the wall behind 🙂

have similar setup, @dry-waitress-7852 did you see rise in your productivity, focus levels?

Well as a designer I’m saving 50% of my work time simply by not having to zoom in and out of things, you know. It

@dry-waitress-7852 agreed, i just started ui prototyping on figma, and I cannot imagine working on 13" screen

I guess a larger monitor works better for designers than having multiple screens. Now the Laptop screen is for Slack, Abstract, Documentation and music etc. The larger screen allows me to work at 100% zoom (this one is 4K so I can actually have couple of desktop or a whole flow of mobile screens visible at a time and work simultaneously) Also less switching between apps helps focusing a bit. This is the first time I’m working with two displays on mac so still looking for ways to improve the workflow further 🙂

I use magnet app for mac to snap windows to corners, very helpful for big screens

@dry-waitress-7852 I have used this for the wall behind my setup looks great https://www.asianpaints.com/online-shop/wall-stickers/Avengers/wall-ons-iron-man-the-armoured-avenger-original-wall-sticker.html And pad I would suggest get a Razer one.

Interesting collection they’ve got. Sadly the wall behind has Drill-holes from the previous tenant who had a TV fixed here I’d assume.

Oh I see, maybe some lights like nanoleaf or something.
