If you know me, you would know my love for minimal desks and gadgets. Here is bunch of things on my desk which I use everyday.
Laptop - MacBook Pro
The workhorse. I have the MacBook Pro (15-inch). Even though i’m not a fan of the butterfly switches - the machine is indispensable for my design workflows. It’s ingrained in my usage with the setup and keyboard shortcuts (more about these in a separate post)
External Monitor - Dell
I have been rocking the 2 monitor setup for 8 years now. The LG 27inch 4K-UHD monitor (27UL650) sits on a UniArt monitor raise. The external monitor is for reference material, team chat, watching videos, general browsing
Desk speakers
I listen to Lo-Fi music while working and they are channelled through these amazing PreSonus Eris E3.5 desk speakers. They don’t take up too much space on the desk, have a great soundstage and tight bass. Love them!
Stationery
The notebooks keep changing over time. I am currently using a yellow A6 grid notebook from PaperClub. The Uniball Signo is my default go-to pen. I don’t prefer pens with a separate cap since I always somehow manage to lose them :)
Headphones
I don’t use headphones a lot but whenever I do it’s the Audio-Technica ATH-M50X. These studio monitors sound perfect.
Plants
On the desk there are 2 Fejka’s from IKEA (artificial plants) and a real money plant in a blue Sky Vodka bottle (yeah true story).
S21 Ultra
What a beast of a device this is. Absolutely love it. Great display, very versatile camera system and OneUI is slowing gaining on me.
iPad Air
I have iPad Air (4th Gen) along with the Apple Pencil (Gen 2), which is used for a lot of artwork on Procreate. This is the binge consumption/casual gaming device basically. Netflix, Call of Duty and Chill.
AirPods Pro
This is a recent purchase. Great for calls (best mic quality actually) and casual music, videos. They sound decent/good and decent noise cancellation, but the convenience of how they switch between the Mac, iPhone and iPad is worth the moolah.
Desk Accessories
Charging Dock - Quantum Zero (5 USB hub). The model I have is currently out of stock but check them out, they have high quality products.
Dongles - Apple USBC to HDMI / USBA / USBC Dongle
Desk mat - AmazonBasics Extended Gaming mat
The desk and chair are from FeatherLite
