I've put together my dream workspace

workspace Published 5 min read

This year I decided to invest in a new workspace. You have probably already read about the Hinomi H2 Pro in the April post, and now it was time to assemble the rest.

The desk is a Secretlab MAGNUS Pro. I had the drill out for it the same afternoon the chair came out of the box. On top of that sits the MAGNUS Pro desk riser, also from Secretlab, which gives the monitors that extra elevation.

The dual monitor arms are Secretlab as well. Heavy, precise, smooth motion. They keep the monitor cables hidden in the arms, which is the part of cable management I actually finished.

The finished desk in daylight: UPerfect in portrait, Philips Evnia ultrawide, MacBook on a stand, Hinomi chair in front

The screens

The main display is a Philips Evnia: 34 inches, curved ultrawide, QD-OLED at 175 hertz, with built-in ambience lighting. This thing is unreal. That is the window I write and review in. One wide surface instead of two matching rectangles fighting for the middle of the desk.

On the left, a 24-inch UPerfect mounted vertically. That one is for Slack, docs, and long terminal logs.

The MacBook sits on a stand on the right as a third screen. A yellow Pokémon lives on the riser.

The lights

A Nanoleaf vertical light bar, because every dream workspace needs the right vibe. It changes colour through the day and syncs with the desk's built-in light bar in the cable management.

The short

If you want to see it go together, the short is on YouTube.

Workspace complete. Ready for the next year of software building.

Can you guess the cost of the entire workspace?

Cheers! 🍺
