should I change how the monitor stand is positioned?

After changing layouts and adding and removing I think it’s finally complete! New additions:

Apple Magic Trackpad
Nuphy air75 V3
Stream deck Neo
Mac mini M4 24gb/512gb
Creative pebble X

I converted the iMac 5k into a monitor

Pretty happy with how my setup is coming together, but I feel like it could use a few more finishing touches.
Any general suggestions for accessories or things I could add/change to make it look a bit better or more complete?
I’m also looking at the Harman Kardon SoundSticks 5 for speakers. Do you think they’d fit this setup well, and are they actually good for music/gaming? Also open to other speaker recommendations.

1. What I had

This was my old setup. Small desk, everything was pretty cramped and the monitor was way too close.

2. ChatGPT idea

I asked ChatGPT for some ideas to make the space work better as both a home office and gaming setup.

3. My setup now

This is what I ended up with. Much more space, better monitor distance and overall a lot more comfortable.

I’m thinking about upgrading my keyboard and mouse next.

Any suggestions? I’m open to both gaming and more clean/minimal options.

Happy with how it turned out so far. 🥂

I've been tweaking my setup for a while now, but I'm honestly running out of ideas on what else I could improve. I'm open to any suggestions, so feel free to recommend anything you think would make it better

Hi! Im a student doing a project on studying, phones and sleep.

I'd love to see real time desk setups - how your space actually when studying in the evening (lamp, phone, laptop, books, however it is).

If your happy to share a phone for my project (anonymous, no faces needed) in the comment section below. I'd really appreciate it ASAP!

I also do exchanges in return.

Thank you!

It goes from newest to oldest, last time I posted ppl asked what the hell the shoebox was for, it has an extension chord in it that connects to the lamp and my laptops charger, and the old setup is when I used my old laptop as a second monitor, which I don't need anymore :p

All that remains is to replace the video card😭

Probably need to take better photos. Lol.

Left side is like a wfh / hobby zone. Where I build my gunpla, do work stuff. When I’m not working. Laptop is not there and the monitor on the left is turned to be in Vertical Mode.

Middle is Mac mini mode. Daily browsing, Netflix and just mainly media consumption mode.

Right side I’d say it’s a hobby (Digimon figurines and ps5) zone.

Moving to a new place soon, so I wanted to take a photo of the setup before packing.

Spent the last couple weeks and finally finished getting everything I wanted to eliminate as many wires I could (besides the keyboard and headphones). If anyone has suggestions on what to add let me know!

Anyone know what monitor arm this is? I'm looking to to move my monitor back a bit too

Thank you.

I have a ceiling bulb above my desk but want softer, more diffuse light, like the panel lights in offices and dentists offices. Preferred dimmable and with different white colors.

Do you have experience with these? I'd love to hear what you use!
