My home office setup
Creating a space that maximises focus and productivity were extremely important to me — and I’ve figured out how to perfect just that…
The list below is what I have in my home office, which I use in order to work on my blog and design projects for hours a day:
Computer/ Monitor
15inch Macbook Pro — for everything work related. My super reliable baby. (I’ve also linked the latest version of this macbook pro)
LG 27″ IPS Monitor — although the exact version I have is no longer on sale, this 23inch version looks great for anyone who wants that double screen action when working (highly recommended!)
LG 27″ IPS Monitor (4k version) — this will be my next purchase, I promise you that… it looks stunning.
Custom Gaming PC — although I no longer play any games and have donated this PC to my younger brother, it’s still the beast that it was all those years ago and is definitely worth a mention
Bookshelf
Bamboo Storage Ladder Bookshelf — a quiet and fitting design that allows my proud collection of books to stand out!
What’s on my bookshelf 📚 — this where you can find my ultimate reading list
Desk
Ikea’s Oppeby — If you notice, the desk is actually not a desk at all, its actually a dining table from Ikea. I needed a desk that could fit a lot of things onto it. This includes my speakers, a macbook, monitor and other desk accessories. So when purchasing this, my intention was to have a large, beautiful and glossy desk. I got exactly what I paid for.
UPDATE: Unfortunately the desk I have is no longer available as one piece, but you can still buy it in two pieces: the table top and the legs. Otherwise, if you’re looking for a great Ikea desk, I couldn’t recommend this one enough!
What’s On My Desk
Apple Wireless Keyboard — surprisingly tactile and comfortable to use
Leather Desk Organiser — great if you have a few devices
Bose Speakers — the best quality speakers I’ve ever owned and I refused to part ways with these beauties!
LOADS of Muji Pens — I’m in love with these
Moleskin Plain Pocket Notebook — for journaling, which kind of like free therapy — try it!
Moleskin Ruled Notebook — for plans, lists and ideas
Seagate 2TB Hard Drive — cause it’s badass and rapid
Forever Spin Spinning Top — helps me focus whilst I think and… because Inception!
Ikea Fake Desk Plant — because they look cool and who waters plants anyway haha?
Blue Yeti Microphone — my microphone I use for audio notes and my videos
Personal Assistant
Amazon Echo — but the Echo Dot is a cheaper, compact option
iPhone’s Siri — unpopular opinion but I actually really like Siri and get all my calls and texts sent using it
Lighting
LED Light Strips — an absolutely must have!
LED Light Bulbs — make your lighting badass
Star Wars Death Star LED — I’ll be getting the Millennium Falcon one next
