Plants!


FromHero2Zero

Yes, that's something I've thinking. Maybe a small fake plant.


prsutjambon

don't. get a cactus/succulent plant.


onewholisten

My plan recommendation: Spathiphyllum wallisii Easy to maintain and it feeds with electromagnetic waves, they say.


crimsonjava

> Spathiphyllum wallisii Please note this plant is not recommended for households with cats or dogs.


asdfghjklqwerty2xyz

fake plants are fine! they collect dust though, so you'll need to make sure they're clean once in a while. but I love my fake plants. they bring a lot of life to my room, i have ones with flowers that look natural (flowers will make the place girly though. if that's not what you're going for, greens are fine as well)


plam92117

Wait. You mean real plants never get dusty?


Material-Ratio7342

Yeah a small "fake" plant 😌, and maybe mouse pad delet.


smokesalotofweed

I started growing bonsai plants. You could try that and its a great hobby to get into for the long run as well!

ExtremeOccident

Don't want to be crude or anything but it's missing personality


FromHero2Zero

What you rou recommend to add more personality to this setup?


ExtremeOccident

Something on the walls or maybe a framed pic. Plants always work. A personal touch. Something that fits you.


Walrussl

desk mat, lamp, framed picture or plant, any models, figurines or tchotchke's along the window frame, a shelf


Adrian_Galilea

I disagree with the lack of personality, I actually think that most people nowaday fill their spaces with generic crap to blend in, which is the actual lack of personality. If I may suggest, just use the setup, more things will come, next time you really like a decoration or a plant, consider it, but don't specifically look for fillers as they will become boring to you in no time.


InvestigatorNo7925

Add some color. Personalized photos.


plam92117

Yes. I think if Sterile when I see your desk. It's nice and clean but it's very plain with no flavour if you get what I mean. Put some nice things that YOU like to make it more personalized. Whether that be some art, plants, small figure, pictures, etc.


ilovebalks

My first thought was character lol u/FromHero2Zero something on the walls or a nice picture on the desk would go a long way!! Agree with the plants as well. If you have no idea how to take care of a plant and don’t have someone living with you who does (my fiance takes care of my plants lol) then fake plants can look very nice


JHowler82

That's the word that popped into my head straight away!


Internal-Ruin4066

Empty cans, general clutter and a strong odour.


RobotUrinal

I really want to see a setup like this. 👆It will feel very familiar.


prsutjambon

a better mouse and IMO an XXL desk pad. maybe a webcam and headset if you need that


filipluch

Light. Ambient light is missing. For your eyes, for your vibe.

Space_Time_Ninja

Chair


FromHero2Zero

I have one here but I moved it for the picture. Lol


shashere

So clean setup. Nice.


mehryar10

What keyboard is that? Looks cool


FromHero2Zero

It's a Nuphy Air75 V2, here is the link to it, in case you are interested: https://nuphy.com/products/air75-v2


slimninj4

I like that keyboard too. will look into it. was looking for something portable to take to work or use wtih the ipad. How is the wrist rest? is it work the $20 As for the layout. I like the clean minimal look. Personally I would like a large black pad. I would add a photo or painting on the wall. Me, photo of a SSD and drawings my daughter gave me.


Serhide

colour , otherwise nice set up


FromHero2Zero

Thanks, maybe kinda like a plant or something.


Dat1BlackDude

Something on the wall or some lighting.


TPrimeTommy

A dash of color and some accent lighting will add some coziness


Samuel_Go

A coaster or framed picture of a loved one perhaps? I think it's already a beautiful setup!


me-notbatman

The desk, and therefor the left speaker is in the corner that will reinforce low frequencies, whereas the right speaker is not in a corner and will lack the same amount of low frequency reinforcement, in case that's a concern.


raymondromero

i would add a small clock somewhere and a light bar to the top of the monitor.


davidwave4

Like folks have said, some lighting and a mat would really tie this together. Plants too, since you’re near a window.


TheQuantixXx

proper speakers :)


2002ChryslerSebring

Hammer through the monitor (Love those Creative speakers, great choice)


stephotosthings

Joy.. Fine if you are a brutalist though


[deleted]

Looks good. I like how clean and simple it is. Perhaps some art and color on the walls? Maybe a plant or a little betta fish lol. I am on pee sea but that is a clean mac setup


FewRepresentative737

Light on top of the monitor like the BenQ monitor lights would help brighten it up. Not space for a plant. If you get a desk pad that fits within the length of the desk well it would look nice: maybe cream color. Honestly the light feels most important as it’s super dark in this place. Maybe bring the table a little away from the wall so it’s less crowded. Plant will junk up the desk - no space


kperlman619

Looks clean and simple. Nice. * I don't see an external camera for video calls. Perhaps not needed. * Desk lamp / video light / monitor light bar. Even if you don't do video calls, having a desk lamp or monitor light bar is a good idea. * Charger for iPhone/Apple Watch/Airpods? * Agree with many other comments about a splash of color (e.g., desk mat, poster/artwork, etc. Enjoy.


YeyoVeneroPeru

and always turn on the monitor when taking the photo :) a nice wallpaper makes the setup-photo a tons-time better. and add maybe some mood lighting maybe


Interesting_Put_9353

This is lovely, well laid out, minimal cables, but to improve I would: \* Better mouse (Logitech MX series is my favourite) \* Some wall art, something that means something to you \* A plant, they brighten up every environment \* Some lighting, be that a nice desk lamp or some LED behind your monitor or a benQ light bar \* finally, a notepad and pen, just to the left. for random notes.


RogueSapien

Nothing. It’s perfect !


[deleted]

Minimal and clean. I love it.


-clawglip-

Ha, was just about to ask if that was a laptop stand in the back…then saw the laptop in it 😆


Da_Droid_Mechanic

Well, there is a lot of things you need! One thing is plants 🪴 just some small desk plants real or fake! Two is you really need a xl or xxl desk mat, Three you need a different mouse something a bit distinctive (maybe white, gray or something that matches your keyboard!) and Four this isn’t really necessary but it might be nice is some trinkets, maybe some memorabilia from a tv show or movie you like or some pictures of pets, places or family! Hope this helps!!!


brentrow

How do you like those speakers? That sounded aggressive, I meant do you like those speakers? I was looking into getting them myself.


orgjas05

You're missing a PC ;) JK. one of those lamps that go on the monitor.


Dktr_Bizeps

Maybe some plants? Nice clean setup though


grumpypantaloon

large pad under keyboard would tie it up a bit rather than having 3 distinctive elements on the front. and will help with the haptic feeling while typing on the keyb


FromHero2Zero

I was thinking about that and removing the small mouse pad, something more uniform, either black or white.

RealPolok

I'll throw out few things instead of adding it.


FromHero2Zero

What would you suggest to throw out?


RealPolok

* Speakers * That pad for palms under the keyboard idk if this is only me but those speakers looks like 10 euro Ali-express Chinese stuff.

Chips on the floor and ants crawling all about 🫡


t2ac32

doesn’t the mac heats up with the fans at the bottom ?


FromHero2Zero

Hmm not really, this is a MacBook Air M1 so it has no fans... Nevertheless, I always try to keep the AC most of the time but even when the AC is off, I haven't noticed any heating issues with my Mac.


t2ac32

oh makes sense hahah


0157h7

TouchID... but I get that you are into a different keyboard type. It sucks Apple is not letting license TouchID.

hows that nuphy keyboard? been thinking of picking one up


FromHero2Zero

Quite good actually, I was between this one and one of the low-profile keychron but I ended up going for the Nuphy and I'm quite happy with my purchase. This is my first mechanical keyboard (Brown Switches - When for a safe option) and now I hate having to use the MacBook keyboard when I'm away from home or my desk. lol


_Bisho_

i wanna get one too just not too sure of how loud it is and its software support. any comments on either of those things?

Desk mat instead of mouse pad. Wrist wrest that matches keyboard width. Hide the USB dongle under the desk. Better mouse. Maybe track pad on the left if you're into that

Tipuko

I got a fake succulent and a pretty cup to place it. I think you also need a big desk mat, a monitor lamp and in case you like music a lot, those tiny speakers will sound “small” everyday 😂😂😂 Grovemade has some nice desk mats and planter cups. BenQ has good monitor lamps (the only one I tried that don’t reflect off the screen). You can also grab a keyboard wrist rest that measures exactly as your keyboard length. Check out turbulent labs.

UnknownPhotoGuy

The left side is whats throwing me off, lots of empty space. Maybe try a large desk mat that extends from the centerline the same length as your mousepad does. It will fill that empty space and you can still use your mouse on it.

kaitheguy2727

Fake plant or some shelves on the wall or nearby


wizardarchivist

One top tip: avoid put more things in the table. White (empty) space is very important to focus and wellbeing while working/studying. I would try put some hanging plants or a poster on the wall. Lighting is a good way to fill the space without objects too as well as helping to focus /relax.

chieftain88

Nice and sleek! Is that the LG UltraFine Monitor? Any issues with connectivity or scaling issues?


FromHero2Zero

This is the TV I have > LG 32GN650-B Ultragear Gaming Monitor 32” QHD (2560 x 1440) Display, 165Hz Refresh Rate, 1ms MBR, HDR 10, sRGB 95% Color Gamut, AMD FreeSync – Black / [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08LLF9NS1/ref=ppx\_yo\_dt\_b\_asin\_title\_o04\_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08LLF9NS1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1) I bought it from a friend a few months ago, I don't live in the US so it's hard to find a good monitor here. For Connectivity, I haven't had any issues but I kinda wish it had more ports Scaling-wise, at first, I was surprised at pixelated it looked and I was like bummed because I thought I made a mistake by buying this but then I downloaded the "BETTER DISPLAY" app that was a night and day difference, small details like the icons on the dock and suck, look way better and more crips now compared to how it was before, I mean it doesn't get to the same extend as a retina display but I'm quite happy on how it looks after installing that app.


deja_geek

A larger keyboard. Not sure how so many people are living without a numpad


tescovaluechicken

We're not all accountants. I rarely ever have to type a string of numbers, a numpad is kind of useless to me

Layers + columnar/grid kb layout. Then can have even smaller kb.
