Aesthetic Desk Setup Ideas for Productivity and Focus
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 тра 2022
- So when did aesthetic desk setups become the hot topic? I wanted to follow up on my 14-inch MacBook Pro Desk setup tour and jump back in on this work from home aesthetic trend that we're seeing everywhere. Are we actually using our dream desk setups, or are they just set pieces for our minimalist Instagram feed?
I've got a couple of new accessories I've been testing on M1 Mac Mini desk setup and I wanted to share these with you if you're looking to make a new investment in your space to get that productivity dialed in.

This setup isn't always this clean, but when it is, it's clean. Sending my best to you all. 🤘
Kevin question for you -- Are you editing with the Mac Mini M1?
I still use the Mac Mini. I go back and forth between the mini and the M1 Max MBP, but the mini is still in rotation.
@@KevinRossRN cool thanks Kevin appreciated your answer
You bet. Sending my best 🤘🍀
I like the idea of an aesthetic workspace. But the realities of business and production always get in the way! That piece to hold the iPad is dope.
Yeah, it can certainly be challenging to keep it organized. And the iPad stand is so clutch.
Great to have you here on this one. Appreciate your time.
Love me some Magflott! That light bar is a godsend. Thought it was a gimmick but now can’t live without it! Awesome setup Kevin and very soothing vibe my man! A nice break from all the noise 🙏🏼
This light bar is just the bees knees man. Loving it.
Appreciate having you here brother. I like making these chill vibes videos from time to time.
nice videos! love your set up especially the drawers
Thanks friend. Very much appreciated.
Awesome setup man! Love how clean and functional it is!
Really appreciate you saying so. And thankful to have shared a little time with you here. 🤘
Nice setup! I got the pitaka ipad case, and it works well with my Magic Keyboard. Love it!👍
Yeah, I really just leave that case on the iPad all the time. Except for when I’m using the Sketchslate. Otherwise, it’s on.
Love the setup , nice job awesome video.
I appreciate that. And thanks for your time here.
The only thing that triggers me about this setup is the lack of leg space
I don't see how that can be comfortable to work/game with
Well it’s primarily for standing. And the stool I use moves at the base so I basically lean back on it, however in my other desk setup video you’ll see that I also have another desk where I sit.
But I get it. It’s not for everyone.
When I got married! My wife’s definition of cleanliness is for every room to look like no one lives here. Great video. Best wishes brother! ✊🏼
Ha! If only the rest of the house looked this good. With three kids, shoes, backpacks, sport’s gear and two dogs to boot, it’s much tougher to find a place for everything 🤣
Very clean. I like the more minimal desk setups. Helps me focus on my work. 😊
Thanks! And yes, I agree. Helps me focus as well. Really glad to have you hanging out here.
Great video :)
Very much love this
Many thanks 🙏 Always working on it.
I could never do cabinets in front of my legs for the office but I love the idea for a garage. Also that Ipad holder is soooo nice
Love the iPad stand. I use it daily. But as far as the cabinets, depending on how I’m standing or using the stool, I can open them up if I feel like I need some space, but I totally get that it’s not for everyone. I just love having this much space to spread out if I need to.
Appreciate your time on this one.
I've been watching a lot of videos like this recently because I find them so inspiring. I think they're the reason why I began to take a much more serious interest in interior decor and interior design, specifically home office. I believe that having the work environment configured correctly according to our personal standards is what allows us to be more productive. Recently, I changed the colors of my home office, added some indoor plants, changed some basic devices and bought a Protractor desk at Barcelona Designs. Overall, I think that has inspired me to be more efficient.
A Protractor desk!? Very nice. That is inspiring. I of course agree that if this is the place that I’m spending most of my time, then I’ll make the necessary investments to make certain it’s a place where I feel inspired and more aligned with the way I work.
Plants. I could use some plants.
Appreciate you taking the time to share, and of course for the opportunity to have a little chat. 😉
Great flow here brother. I am really enjoying these keyboards: Keychron Q2, Iqunix F97 (pink switches), Highground Snowstone, and the FICIHP K2 (cheesy but fun).
Thanks! And I was looking at the IQUNIX last year and still considering on of their keyboards. And of course the Keychron is certainly a staple in the space. Appreciate the suggestions.
It’s quite a little hobby. 😬
I'd love to see a behind-the-scenes on the gear you use to film your desk setup. I'm thinking about doing something similar with my setup, but only have an iPhone 11. Thanks!
Hey an iPhone 11 is certainly nothing to sneeze at. I had a desk setup video I did last fall and most of it was filmed on the iPhone as a little test to myself that it could be done.
I’ll be doing a full studio reveal though with the gear I use.
Great setup :)
Thanks! It’s been fun building it out.
Kevin, I loved this video, not just for what it suggests to me for my own productivity and home decoration but for what it tells me about you, the artist behind this video. But I’m confused about something fundamental here: You disparage aesthetics, but as everything in this set up and your video screams out, you define them too
It’s the constant ebb and flow, and the push/pull that we seem to admire from a distance while also being enveloped by it at the same time.
Maybe I should write a Haiku 😀
It’s great to have you pop by on this one. Always a work in progress around here. 😉🤘
Many thanks.
Great Video and use of IKEA cabinets systems 👍👌
Many thanks! And yes, the cabinets are convenient.
Your setup is so clean and nice! I recently changed my setup and went really crazy with everything new 😅 having a nice and clean setups improved my work.
Thanks! It really does make a difference to be in a space that inspires you. What’s one of your favorite pieces in your new space?
@@KevinRossRN definitely the new 16“ MacBook Pro
Oh yeah! 🤘
That’ll make any setup look good 😉
@@KevinRossRNmy 15“ Pro was from mid 2012, I treated my self something good 😬. That machine is a real beast!
Nice upgrade. The difference in performance is just hard to describe until you actually use it.
great setup
Appreciate you 🤘
Honestly these setup tours are really getting ne to want to clean up my setup, despite the fact i'm going to college in like 14 days 😅
Ha! Well first, congrats on heading out to college. Second, I know what you mean. I have other office space I’m not in very much, but I really love having those spaces “clean.”
Of course the space does get a little congested on the workspace I do like having options to put pieces of equipment away.
I thought the pitaka case is only compatible with the pitaka stand. Never thought it could work with this magfloat stand. Great video, Love your setup.
They’re both great stands and I do use them both (on separate desks), but it does work well on this one.
Great to see you over here.
Def check out Nuphy Air 75 and 60 Keyboards! I just got the 60 and I love the form factor! Love your setup btw!
Thanks for the recommendations. I will also add this to the list. It’s starting to add up 💰😬
Also, thanks for your time here.
@@KevinRossRN Oh I'm sure, with all the people watching, you will have no shortage of ideas!
Thank you for the kind response also!
Let’s hope. And of course! I appreciate hanging out in the comments with everyone.
keychron q1 is a fantastic keyboard, some light modding turns it into a great sounding board :)
That’s one that is at the top of the list to mod. I plan on picking it up. Appreciate you weighing in on that.
I've a very similar set-up that includes the same monitor and monitor arm and large bookshelf speakers.
Really!? I assume you’re liking it?
@@KevinRossRN yes and no. I've always been a ViewSonic fan and some of the things that drew me to this monitor is it's professional grade and features and I could game on it too, but I'm becoming increasingly annoyed with the colour. I work as a graphic designer and enjoy photography too. It's just not as good as I would like. I bought a colour calibrator hoping to dial in the colours. It'll do for now but in the future I'll probably give in to Apple and buy one of their displays or at least a more expensive ViewSonic. 😁
I can understand that. I’ve found the color to “fit” the look I’m after with video, but if I were strictly doing design work or photos, then I can’t argue with either a Dell or an Apple display. I get it.
Hey Kevin - looks great! I appreciate the Nexus 6 with the wood-grain skin. I rocked my N6 for a good while with an ebony-wood skin and it was truly one of Google's best phones for enthusiasts. I have eyed that BENQ ScreenBar for a little bit - it looks nice, sir. Keep up the vibe you have going here - "Organic Industrial Minimalism" or whatever you wanna call it. :)
Ah the organic industrial minimalism….Nice description.
Appreciate it.
Actually, that phone was (is) the Moto X with a bamboo back. It was one of my favorites. Hard to believe that was about 9 years ago that I got that phone.
@@KevinRossRN Oh haha looks a lot like the Motorola Nexus 6 :)
Uncanny similarities. The year right before Google purchased Motorola so they could manufacture in Texas.
I really wanted that deal to succeed.
Every iPad user goes says that at some point maybe the next OS will be different 🥲 Great video as always!
Thanks! And yes, there’s always the next iPadOS. You never know. 🤷♂️😉
Just purchased the Halo. Delivered yesterday. Love it already!
It’s kind of silly how awesome this thing is. I turn this thing on just to help light the space even when I’m not at this particular desk. Hope you continue to enjoy it.
@@KevinRossRN Pricey as.... but it delivers. Really happy with it. I use it day and night. I have to use a keyboard skin on my MX Keys and even though its clear, it still shades the keyboard a bit. The Halo makes all the keys really easy to see. And plus, it's just really cool!
Agree. And I can notice a difference in eye fatigue.
Very cool setup
Thanks so much! Appreciate you.
I NEEEEEED to know more about what your IKEA desk is built from! I need to build a new desk and I require advice and model numbers.
I’ve had it for a few years now. In this video:
ua-cam.com/video/z6KbLznmAZI/v-deo.html
Everything should be linked there as this was the primary focus in that video.
@@KevinRossRN Thanks Kevin for your efforts, but the links in the old video are not to those specific cabinets. I did click em' and I did check the kitchen cabinets and I cant find the ones you have in the video. They may be discontinued, but if you have a minute can you double check and see if you can still find them? Maybe I'm blind and missed them. The counter top is still a good link, thanks for that and did you have to cut down the length? Sorry to be a bother, but I'm trying to come up with a design for my office on a budget.
So, I've gone ahead and updated those links in the description. Ikea just changed the name of the cabinets, but they're still the same (relatively speaking). It's the SEKTION line of cabinets. And no, I didn't personally have to cut the countertop, but if you do it should come with a piece of laminate that you can glue onto the side you have to cut.
I wish my desk looked like that. Mine looks like a dumpster fire!
Ha! Oh, this has been a work in progress. I remember the dumpster fires I tried to work with. 🤣
This is a my theory on aesthetics and workflow. I couldn’t agree more. I want my space to look good when clean and then everything has a place so everything can be in its place.
It’s like the non-exciting part of having a slick setup. Making sure you’ve got space to put everything. Drawers, cabinets, etc.
Minimalism is nice as long as you’ve still got the available tools to work and of course when the work is done, then you’ve got a place they can stay until next time.
It’s awesome to see you over on this one. I believe you were just talking about your space over on Twitter, right?
@@KevinRossRN yeah my space is still unfinished but ive taken the challenge of using the space as much as I can before I start finalizing plans for how I will use the space. I’m loving the ikea kitchen cabinets. I may borrow that idea for at least a work bench.
I worked in an unfinished basement for awhile. I still remember those days. But I know part of that inspiration is fueled by the space you walk into every day.
As far as the kitchen cabinets, most definitely. These have been such a space saver and having a place for everything I use/need. I pop by that Centennial location from time to time for a little inspiration. There’s never just a “quick stop” at IKEA 🤣
For keyboard recommendations, I'd suggest taking a look at the Keychron Q2. The KBD67 lite is another great cheaper option, and the QK65 is an amazing option that will be in group buy soon. If you don't want to lube switches or pay extra for lubed switches, the Gateron Oil Kings are a great stock linear switch.
Awesome! I’ve got a pre-built on the way to take a look at, but I have been REALLY wanting to pick up that Q2. Also, thanks for the QK65 recommendation. I’m going to take a look at that one.
@@KevinRossRN The QK65 is an absolute beast of a board for the price. I was lucky enough to get one of the round 1 boards, but round 2 is coming up pretty soon I think. Good luck!
Thanks! I’ll see if I can snag one. Appreciate your time here 🤘
Love the vid! Can I get the name or link to the Yamaha monitor stands/risers? Those are beautiful!
Thanks! Totally forgot to add those. I love them! geni.us/MiBAiE6
@@KevinRossRN thanks so much 🙏🏻
You bet. If you make the investment then I hope you enjoy them. 🤘
Nice 👌
Thanks!
Awesome video, love the setup and great lighting in your office and making the video!!!!
Quick question about t he speaker stands, do you hear any rattle or do you think the High Density Acoustic Foam Studio Monitor Isolation Pads will sound the same?
+1 SUBSCRIBER
Thank you
I really like the stands because they bring those monitors up to where I need them. I use them all the time and haven’t appreciated any rattle. That’s definitely a good question though, but they are pretty solid and the monitor enclosure (bottom) doesn’t move around on the stands.
Look forward to seeing you around the channel.
@@KevinRossRN Thanks for the quick reply...
Oh you will, if you are ever in Houston, TX stop by Houston Camera Exchange and I'm also a photographer......
I need to start making more videos and post more on my channel and the store channel....
Thank you
Well alright. Will do. And I have to say that it’s tough for most of us to get started. It’s one thing to share information with family and friends, although they can still be a tough critic, but it’s definitely tough to share that same information with the world 😬😳
It does get easier the more you create. Just put in the reps.
Question on the light - would you recommend if you are looking for a light to also serve for a decent lighting source for video calls ?
As long as this doesn’t get in the way of a webcam. I do use it for my Zoom and Teams meeting calls, but my camera sits off to the side, so it actually works.
wow this setup is clean!!! but why didn't you talk about the speakers tho? they really stand out which speakers are those?
Thanks! I did discuss them in this video: M1 Max Desk Setup | Get Work Done
ua-cam.com/video/Qpe5SvLl6rA/v-deo.html
They’re the Yamaha HS5s.
I have never seen a 90s Keanu until now 😂
Ha! Well, I like to keep him around the studio for inspiration. 😉
What speaker stand are you using there? Thank you. 😊
Forgot to add these in the description. Love them: geni.us/MiBAiE6
The soundrise speaker stand, is that for HS8? I have HS8, and I am not sure if that can handle the weight.
These are the 5’s, but as far as the weight, these stands are really sturdy. The question may be whether you might want more surface area to have the stands sit on, but weight shouldn’t be an issue.
looks great, but no leg space? that´s a big no for me, but I see you work almost standing so maybe thats practical to you... very nice looking setup thats for sure!
Thanks! And yes, for standing I don’t really need the space, however if I were sitting on a stool the cabinet doors open up to an area that allows for a little room.
Although I also have a desk in the space when I’m sitting. Gives me options 😉
Appreciate your time here.
Hello Kevin, Im about to buy the MBP m1 with 16/512GB...Do u think its ok to buy this or save money with the external ssd.
Thank you.
Honestly, the internal storage on these machines is so efficient, I’d recommend getting as much internal storage as you can. External storage can always be added later down the road, but half a terabyte would at least allow you to have a couple of projects on the internal (if you’re talking video production, 3D modeling, etc).
Just my two cents worth. 😉
the tofu65 / tofu60 case from kbdfans might look nice in this setup
I’m actually looking at that one. Might just make an appearance 😉
@@KevinRossRN I need my arrow keys, but the 65 PCB is only hot swappable with the american layout and I want the europe one :/
Really? I had no idea. That’s unfortunate.
I truly appreciate Your Videos Kevin. So I have 2 27” Samsung and looking to go DOWN into a larger ONE monitor and possibly leverage the Cal Digit TS4. What Monitor would you recommend now? - I have an M1 Pro MacBook Pro & a Windows Laptop - I can focus on ONE machine at a time - but I do flip often. THANKS. I do LIGHT photo/video editing (nothing like your stuff) AND Heavily use for Research (Browsers) and Spreadsheet work. THANKS - I appreciate it! PS - I am not a gamer…. :)
Do you have a particular budget in mind, and are you looking for 4K or is 3440 x 1440 workable?
@@KevinRossRN I should have included that in the comment :) -- I have a 27" Samsung S70A 4K UHD High Resolution Monitor and LOVE it - I just wish it was a little brighter --- but... Samsung actually makes a 32" version I just can't tell - if going to from 2 27" (the other is an older Dell) to a 32" would be enough. I think the 3440X1440 would be enough - but I am looking at somewhere around $600 - I really think I will long term need the docking to support some future HDD and I really want the one plug solution. THANK YOU for your opinion and time...
Well, are you more concerned about going with me monitor because of using the dock? You can push both of those monitors. For the equivalent experience you’d be looking at a 49 inch ultrawide, but I assume you wouldn’t want it that big. Not to mention it wouldn’t be within budget either. A 32 inch monitor would likely feel small, so you’d be landing (minimum) 38 inches, but trying to push as close to 40 as you can.
However, going back to the original monitors, if you can push them through the dock, would you keep them?
@@KevinRossRN I would get rid of both of the 27" to a more streamlined look in the office - I was also looking (because I have a TV above the monitors - to go with something like - UN43AU8000FXZA 43" AU8000 but worried that the text quality would not be there. THANK YOU
amazing voice… or audio setup… or all at once)
Appreciate that. I’ve been working on it, although I’ve had this voice at least my entire adult life 😉
Thanks for your time.
Great video! Love the clean desk.
But there's no space for your leg, don't you feel uncomfortable?
Thanks! Well it’s just one of my desks in the space so I do switch it up. And I’m able to open the cabinet doors if I feel like I need some space, but I mostly stand or just lean against the stool.
My setup looks relatively nice when I clean my desk off. My mini leg lamp is definitely out of place though.
You have a mini leg lamp? That’s awesome.
@@KevinRossRN it was a minor award.
Must be Italian.
Those stands for Yamaha HS8 are awesome. Any link?
The coolest. Yes, it should be in the description under the Yamaha link.
@@KevinRossRN Ah I see, thank you so much for the quick response it seems they are somehow not available in Europe 🤔
Oh bummer! Trying to think about some others I had my eye on. I just specifically wanted the white (to match of course).
Did you see any others? There are some from Kanto. Are those over there?
@@KevinRossRN I see many ugly stuff but once I wave through VPN/USA they become visible 👽
Visible, but still not able to be shipped there?
Hey Kevin, would you recommend going a curved monitor? How have you found it going from a flat screen?
Well, I use both. I like the curved on this larger setup as I feel like I’m not having to stretch to see everything. I have a flat 27 inch monitor on my other desk where I sit, and I also like this because that desk is smaller, and I’m sitting closer.
What are you mostly working on? Your typical workflow.
@@KevinRossRN Logic and browsing mainly. I have a 27inch imac and was looking at either the 34 or 38 inch UW. Have you had any experience with the 38inch? It looks like there's a little bit of height lost on the 34 vs the 38 inch.. I wonder if you will get more out of the 38 in terms of productivity etc?
The 38 will definitely provide a bit more real estate that will give you more options with split screen or being able to float a few windows that you may be working in.
Personally, the 34 has been fine, however I have enough distance and workspace where I’m considering some in the 40ish range. If you have the space and it’s in your budget, then I’d grab that extra few inches if you can.
As far as personal experience with the 38, not in my current setup, but definitely in another studio I’ve worked in.
I always try and get it organized but then when creating starts there that goes.
You know it. It’s a full time job just keeping the clutter off of it.
Word.
Notice the desk warping in the middle. I looked up your video to see if I should mount off the desk or wall with a similar setup. I'm leaning towards three monitors wall mounted at head height, sound bar below, then tv above. Not sure if it's overkill or not
You mean my desk warping in the middle?
As far as wall mounting, are you think about being able to adjust height or having them mostly fixed?
@@KevinRossRN I was thinking of using an ergotron wall mounted arm, then having two 25 inch monitors either side of a 32 inch as a central monitor for video editing and color grading. I just think the weight would be too much for a desk.
That is quite a bit of weight for a desk, unless it’s solid wood. I will say that I did consider mounting displays on the wall. I do like that look. I also think that if you’ll already have a pretty permanent setup for your desk, then why not? 🤷♂️
@@KevinRossRN Yeah, you have a point. I guess it circles back to the purpose. In my case, just trying to clear my desk of clutter and have a simple space. I think I'll try to mount the monitors using wall mounts. Love your video by the way.
Hey, I get it. It’s nice to have as much off the desk as possible. I’m all for that. Appreciate you jumping over here on this one. 🤘
How are you playing genshin on macOS? Not an M series chip I'm assuming?
Indeed it’s the M series. I’m playing through PlayCover.
Hi Kevin, are you interested in HDMI Live Stream Switcher?
I’d love to, but my content schedule is a little booked up at the moment.
@@KevinRossRN That's Ok, I can send it to you first, you can make videos when you are free
@@KevinRossRN Hi, Kevin, Could you please check your email, cooperation matters have been sent by email, thanks
Will do, apologies on the delay. Emails come in quite frequently and I have someone that goes through those for me as there are quite a few that we have to review and answer. But I’ll take a look.
Appreciate you reaching out.
nice set up…i like hhhh
Appreciate that, and thanks for your time here.
I would say that minimal desk set ups are an aesthetic but as simple as they look, they’re extremely expensive. For example, everyone uses grovemade (which is super expensive) but I find it a bit strange to buy a $120 mousepad when you can literally buy one with similar quality, look, and feel at Amazon for like $20 or less.
Yeah, I get where you’re coming from. I have some less expensive options from Amazon that have worked well, while I also have others such as a desk mat that the leather started to flake and peel. But again, there are some decent finds on there.
Putting together a desk piece by piece can certainly take some time.
Agreed. I actually have a medium Grovemade wool desk mat. I regret spending the $90 on it. After a year of use the leather "Grovemade" piece came apart. The Wool coasters I got from them seem to be holding up fine though. Still think they are grossly overpriced for what you get.
Really? That’s unfortunate to hear and I’m glad you shared that bit of info. But, sorry to hear about your experience.
So it’s just flaking pieces of leather?
@@KevinRossRN Not a problem. The whole leather piece that had the Grovemade logo came off (bad stitching along the side that held that leather piece to the wool). I don't know if I had a defective unit or maybe they need a better way to stitch the leather logo piece to the wool (or leave it off entirely, but that was kinda the reason why I bought it). The Wool part still looks and feels ok (I lightly hand scrub areas that I may accidentally spill stuff on).
Ah, gotcha. Well, that’s still a bummer. For some reason I was thinking it was the whole leather mat, but I suppose at least you can still use the wool, although I agree it’s nice to have that leather piece on there. Kind of one of the few times that having branding on it is nice.
Akko PC75B plus...you're welcome
And I thank you 🙏
90's Keanu tho
The best.
just wondering if you can type in japanese too?
I would be cooler if I could 😎
Get any good chair for your back 🙂
It’s definitely a worthwhile investment. 👍
Hai may I know pc brand name
Are you referring to the Mac Mini?
@@KevinRossRN no I think asking monitor
Gotcha. It’s the ultrawide linked below. It’s a 34 inch from Viewsonic.
Thanks for reply I like ur setup Goodluck more videos:)
Many thanks. Glad to have you here.
That is the kind of setup I can get behind. Nothing wrong with the RBG loving crowd but that's just not my thing.
Thanks! And yes, I experimented with some RGB setups, which the lights behind the desk and the keyboard of course can accommodate, but I’m just more into some of the cooler tones with the occasional dial on a warmer look if I need it.
Appreciate you stopping over on this one. 🤘
UA-cam really needs to handle the bot issue.
Yep, grabbing those as soon as I can. They flood the feed from the get. 🤷♂️
Always something different it seems.
NuPhy Air 75
You got it. Will take a look.
@@KevinRossRN ha ha thanks ✌️
@@KevinRossRN appreciate your efforts put in to these videos. Keep up good work
Many thanks friend. I appreciate the community here.
Your desk appears to be so clean, no cat hair or dust. It seems I clean my desk at least three times a day; maybe the room needs a humidifier.
I don’t know how much this would help, but I have two dogs that produce enough hair in a day to make a cat.
I got a Dyson vacuum that I use pretty frequently and it definitely has helped. Wish I had made the purchase sooner. But I hear you. Keeping up with the hair is a full time job.
@@KevinRossRN Today, I went out and bought an air purifier to help capture dust, cat dander, and other particles in the room that serves as home office + spare bedroom. I sweep the floor with a "dust and dirt capture mop" daily too. I'll keep the Dyson vacuum in mind.
Hey that air purifier may help. I’m interested to hear how you like it once you have a chance to see if it’s working.
@@KevinRossRN after almost a week (6 days) I can confirm that using an air purifier works by reducing dust accumulation by over 99%. Beginning the second day of use there was barely any dust or other particles on the computer desk and computer. For the record, the air purifier runs approximately 16 hours a day, probably could be reduced but the electricity usage is minimal.
So glad you popped back over for an update, and great to hear that it works so well.
I’ve used air purifiers in the past, but I think I need to circle back around and consider one again. Thanks so much for the update.

It's nice, but I've seen the same exact setup across hundreds of content creator videos. There's no originality. As soon as I see anything Grovemade in the thumbnail, I roll my eyes and keep scrolling. Especially if it's a "Dream Desk" caption where they've literally copied everyone's Graovemade/Ikea setup.
Totally get it. It’s all about finding the look and function that works for you. Either way, appreciate your time.
this is what I calling "Overthinking". I just bought MacBook Pro. end of story.
If the story ends here, that would truly be unfortunate.
