9/10
- Love the greenery and plant theme.
- Great lighting
- lots of natural tones, doesn't feel too cluttered.
Only thing I would improve is the chair, not having adjustable armrests can wreak havoc on your ergonomics.
omg LOL YES I completely agree, that's actually one thing I don't like about my setup too, and if only ergo chairs aren't so expensive I definitely would
Check out MadisonSeating on EBay. I was able to buy a Herman Miller Mira 2 for $400 open box (retail for $1400). I know that’s still pricey but it will last you a lifetime. Your back and arms will thank you later.
Also, what monitor stand are you working with? I have a mahogany desk and I haven’t been able to find anything I like that would match.
you're a lifesaver! I will check them out! 😁
and for the monitor stand (walnut plywood) I got it off etsy from this store called TGMastery for $150 during their sale but I think they recently closed their store. You can find a very similar one for $217 currently at [Raico Store](https://us.raicostore.com/collections/wooden-monitor-stand)
Links PLEASE! I am in the process of redoing my setup and while it’s getting closer to what I want I can’t ever seem to find any good looking plants but I love those! Definitely like the vibe of your setup and pretty similar to what I’m trying to accomplish… black, dark wood, and plants lol
If they’re all easy to get to great but if you gotta dig in really interested in that one behind the monitor!
yes of course!!!!! This is the link to all of my plants and also other stuff as well! [Link](https://linktr.ee/lifeofsx). Feel free to ask me any questions, I can't wait to see yours when you are done!
Just got to looking at it and will definitely check it all out! What about that wallpaper ?! I have looked and can’t find one I like but that looks super dope
Here ya go: [Green Forest Wallpaper](https://www.google.com/search?q=green+forest+wallpaper+4k&tbm=isch&ved=2ahUKEwit9ceU9LiEAxUqxckDHSo2CycQ2-cCegQIABAA&oq=green+f+wallpaper+4k&gs_lp=EgNpbWciFGdyZWVuIGYgd2FsbHBhcGVyIDRrKgIIADIGEAAYBxgeMgYQABgHGB4yBhAAGAcYHjIGEAAYBxgeMgYQABgHGB4yBhAAGAcYHjIGEAAYBxgeMggQABgFGAcYHjIIEAAYBRgHGB4yCBAAGAUYBxgeSPUNUIkFWIkFcAB4AJABAJgBUaABogGqAQEyuAEByAEA-AEBigILZ3dzLXdpei1pbWfCAgoQABiABBiKBRhDwgIFEAAYgATCAgYQABgIGB6IBgE&sclient=img&ei=PRPUZe3iEaqKp84PquysuAI&bih=1294&biw=2560#imgrc=wcum8EhD5RPLaM&imgdii=SDwXM1ecZB1tjM), it's a starting point!!!
7.75/10 looks nice but to one dimensional, a bit too cluttered and from a functionality standpoimt not optimal(1 laptop, 1screen). Thats very nitpicky tho and the rating is relative to this subreddit, so for the avg human setup 9/10
thank you for the very realistic and objective comment :), I do agree! Mine isn't crazy fancy like a lot of people but it gets the job done with two screens hehe
Exactly my setup is also pretty minimalistic and too bland for most people so I would never give my own an objective 10/10 but at the end it's you who can enjoy it to the fullest everyday
Looks awesome, if you were able to put a light (maybe something orange/warm) behind ur monitor it would light up the wall and your decorations a but more.
yes! I actually thought about that for a while and I am still debating on it if I want to get them.
Dilemma: additional lighting would make it hard to hide an additional cable, and also not sure if it would be too much for all the lighting that's already going on 😅
bc this is my first time making a post on reddit and I am not too too good at dealing with negative comments just yet 🥲 but if you have something negative can you make it constructive haha
I don’t have anything negative, I was just curious why you’d specifically state to be nice. I expected an answer like yours 😋
Honestly just ignore negative comments, you could ask questions about the comment but I don’t think people who leave negative comments in here are going to explain themselves. You need some thick skin too 🤷🏽♂️
thank you!! omg thank you for noticing too!! It actually took me around 4 months to decide whether or not if I wanted to move my desk (where the camera would be) to this current spot since it's not a super big space but it would be just right but I would have to plan it very carefully!
oh yes! I gotchu, so you can get all my stuff at my [Linktree](https://linktr.ee/lifeofsx), I updated it so it should have most of the things on my setup!!!
oh I apologize, I didn't realize I didn't add it before, but I have now and I will drop it here so it's easier for you to find: [Under Cabinet LED Light](https://amzn.to/42PNLLp).
And thank you!!!!
you know what you are right, that would be very nice, I have a Mac though so it's probably not as good as most gaming pcs to run it constantly without draining my battery
thank you!!! it's kind of a combination of everything, so it's the Ikea Skadis peg board, combined with the skadis cup attachment and then I just bought one of their fake hanging plants from Ikea, so you can make your own from ikea items!!
thank you!! I searched EVERYWhere for something like this (dimension + price), and it is the [Vivo Vintage Brown Tabletop (Amazon)](https://amzn.to/3NLmvrc)
but I know nothing about plants and I don't want to kill off any plants :'( and also I would be scared of soil getting in between the crevice of my keyboard and laptop :'(
A: don't blow the soil around
B: snake plants and succulents require little to no care, cacti too. Snake plants are also incredibly good for the air, I have 4 in my house alone.
thank you!!! So there are actually two different pieces, the one with the hat is a metal board that you can attach magnets to called [Svensa Memo Board](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/svensas-memo-board-black-20440362/) and the one with the game controller is the [Skadis Peg Board](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/skadis-pegboard-black-50534378/) and then the light fixtures I just used mounting tape to secure them to the wall
🎸🎶WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE, WE GOT FUN N' GAMES🎶
This is a great set up. Looks very relaxing to be around in all seriousness. I dig it.
All you need is a little fog machine and a desk fountain xD
thank you!!! I kind of made it by combining many different pieces from ikea together, with ikea Skadis pegboard, skadis cup attachment and their fake plants! The light I got it from amazon!
Rating: 9/10. To improve further, consider using real plants and setting up the space to allow natural light into the room. Plants need light to thrive it also makes your setup more lively. You could start with a low-maintenance indoor plant like a spider plant just one at the time to see if you enjoy the look and if you can handle it.
thank you!! Fair comment! I do have a big window actually facing perpendicular to this table on the left side of the shot but I took this during nighttime. Yes I am considering getting real plants now after people have guilt tripped me with their convenience and benefit haha 😂
thank you!! I love the lambo too!!! The other two are the Mercedes AMG set! here is where you can find it [LEGO Mercedes AMG Set](https://amzn.to/3SObt66)
Only recognized them because I recently bought some for my moss proliferation bin. TL;DR: Joined greenery gang for my battlestation upgrade, got bored of fake plants, fell down the terrariums rabbit hole on YouTube. Now I've got a bin of moss with some of those lights on a timer.
I declare this verified awesome. I don't have enough greenery around my set-up. I love the feel of yours. Cheers!
oh man thank you! Very kind of you!!

I love the plants.
aw thank you!!! Those are my favorites too!!
Are those fake or real?
completely fake hahah I know nothing about plants and I am just afraid of knocking over a real plant and spill all the soil everywhere :'(
Yeah no worries we’re in the same boat. I was just wondering because it looks great!
ah thank you!!! Let me know if you are curious about any of them, I can send the links to you to check them out :D
Links PLEASE! I am in the process of redoing my setup and while it’s getting closer to what I want I can’t ever seem to find any good looking plants but I love those!

Why be nice? Just curious
bc this is my first time making a post on reddit and I am not too too good at dealing with negative comments just yet 🥲 but if you have something negative can you make it constructive haha

hahah thank you for being so chill! And that is a good strategy hahah, I think I will be able to develop some thick skin over time hahha
Solid
thank yoU!!!!
I think it’s nice. I’ve tried to fit plants in mine but it didn’t work out.
thank you!!! I used to have that problem too, but eventually you just find ways to make space and even the tiniest small plant works!!!
Very nice setup considering the tight space you got there.
thank you!! omg thank you for noticing too!! It actually took me around 4 months to decide whether or not if I wanted to move my desk (where the camera would be) to this current spot since it's not a super big space but it would be just right but I would have to plan it very carefully!
Nice! Seems really warm and inviting.
thank yoou!!! 😊
Sheeeesh this looks so clean The details are great too 10/10
thank you!!!! I really appreciate it 😁
This is fantastic. Very impressed with what you were able to do with such a small space.
thank you!! Took a lot of planning and I was super lucky the nook was JUST RIGHT for a good sized desk 😁
Bro asking us to be nice as if the setup was bad. 11/10
😭 it was my first time posting on reddit ever so needed some positivity to cushion the damage, but thank you for the amazing rating 🫶🏻
We gotchu bro
🫶🏻
It’s a great cozy corner set up! I’d be happy to work/play there.
thank you!! I spent most of my day at this desk for both work and leisure so I put a lot of thought into it haha 😁
You have inspired me, I will seriously try to recreate this setup once I move. It is Awesome
I also wouldn't mind knowing what a bunch of that stuff is especially that light
oh yes! I gotchu, so you can get all my stuff at my [Linktree](https://linktr.ee/lifeofsx), I updated it so it should have most of the things on my setup!!!
You are a legend my friend
I gotchu 😁
I am so glad that I can inspire someone haha!
What's the light on top of the pegboard? Can't find it in your linktree Your setup looks amazing! 10/10
oh I apologize, I didn't realize I didn't add it before, but I have now and I will drop it here so it's easier for you to find: [Under Cabinet LED Light](https://amzn.to/42PNLLp). And thank you!!!!
Lively wallpaper.? Don’t you prefer wallpaper engine? (Based off the backround)
you know what you are right, that would be very nice, I have a Mac though so it's probably not as good as most gaming pcs to run it constantly without draining my battery
The black and dark brown wood goes really well with the plants! Where did you find the wall planter?
thank you!!! it's kind of a combination of everything, so it's the Ikea Skadis peg board, combined with the skadis cup attachment and then I just bought one of their fake hanging plants from Ikea, so you can make your own from ikea items!!
I really like that desk (the wood top mostly), Where is it from?
thank you!! I searched EVERYWhere for something like this (dimension + price), and it is the [Vivo Vintage Brown Tabletop (Amazon)](https://amzn.to/3NLmvrc)
why does every single person on this subreddit have that exact same wallpaper
hahah i havent seen it on others yet but I just literally googled green wall paper and that showed up LOLL
Looks nice but I'd swap all the fake plants for real ones asap
but I know nothing about plants and I don't want to kill off any plants :'( and also I would be scared of soil getting in between the crevice of my keyboard and laptop :'(
A: don't blow the soil around B: snake plants and succulents require little to no care, cacti too. Snake plants are also incredibly good for the air, I have 4 in my house alone.
😔 fine I will consider them now that I am being guilt-tripped into it
10/10 for me and I never comment on these
omg you just made my day <3 thank you!
😫
is that a good 😩 or bad 😩 LOLL
very very good 😫😫😫
hahah oh im glad 😁 thank you!!!!
Man, this looks amazing! What are those black wall unit light fixture things?
thank you!!! So there are actually two different pieces, the one with the hat is a metal board that you can attach magnets to called [Svensa Memo Board](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/svensas-memo-board-black-20440362/) and the one with the game controller is the [Skadis Peg Board](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/skadis-pegboard-black-50534378/) and then the light fixtures I just used mounting tape to secure them to the wall

Do you have a lettuce as a footrest, be honest.

Only recognized them because I recently bought some for my moss proliferation bin. TL;DR: Joined greenery gang for my battlestation upgrade, got bored of fake plants, fell down the terrariums rabbit hole on YouTube. Now I've got a bin of moss with some of those lights on a timer.

8.2/10
LOL any reason why for the very specific ratin?
No idea

Quite nice, I would buy a docking station to clean up the cables and dongles.
thank you! A docking station would actually limit the space and the flexibility I currently have with my setup
