Re: Working from home? Show us your home office

The first one is my wife's setup at home. The desk frame in steel (powder-coated) was made in my factory and the table top and shelf were outsourced from a kitchen and wardrobe manufacturer.

Setup:
1. LG Ergo 27" 4K monitor.
2. Benq Screenbar light with wireless controller.
3. Aluminium dock for the laptop.
4. Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse.
5. Anker usb-c hub to connect all the peripherals to the laptop
6. Basic FHD webcam for all of her video calls.

The second setup is the one that i use in my factory.

Setup:
1. 27" imac with 24gb ram and a 2 tb ssd upgrade. Its a 13 year old system but still runs fairly quick after the ssd upgrade. I also use windows 11 on the same system using bootcamp to run some designing softwares.
2. Keychron K2 wireless keyboard with apple trackpad. This keyboard is a beauty. One of the best wireless mechanical keyboards i have ever used.
3. Epson ink-tank printer.
4. Sony 32" FHD tv for cctv system.

What about the chairs? How old are those? Local or some brand?

The chair in the first picture that my wife uses is from Span seating which is based out of Gurugram. I got this last year in Jan, so its been a year.

The chair in the second picture which i use, is 6 years old that was sourced locally from furniture market in Kirti Nagar, Delhi.

Re: Working from home? Show us your home office

Lot of interesting setups!

Here's mine:

Working from home? Show us your home office-desk-2.jpg
Working from home? Show us your home office-desk-1.jpg
- Amazon basics Big & Tall office chair - been using it for 5 years now, and age is beginning to show.
- Desk - built into the room
- Montor - LG 34" curved. I used to have two 27" monitors, but I finally made the switch to a curved Ultrawide screen monitor and I must say, it's amazing!
- Keyboard - Logitech K850 wireless
- Mouse - Razer Basillisk V3 - very comfortable for a guy like me with huge hands. But I must say that the batter life is appaling.
- Microsoft Modern USB-C Speaker for audio calls, paired with a simple Logi C270 webcam
- Laptops - Surface Studio for work, ASUS Vivobook Pro 15 for personal + gaming (note the flight yokes). With this setup, it's a simple switch between both PCs - change the source on the monitor, keyboard's multi device set up, mouse toggle between bluetooth & dongle mode.

I also made a switch to a large mouse pad, on which the keyboard sits, feel it's given me a lot more space and makes working much more comfortable.

And of course, home office aint complete without hobby gear:
- Small model collection from Left to Right:
Mustang, Supra, BMW M3, Batmobile from Arkham series, Lambo Cuntach, DMC Delorean from Back to the Future, Elanor from Gone in 60s, Nissan Skyline R34 GTR, Another mustang

- DBZ figurines + beyblades - hello childhood!
Note the pizza truck - a bye bye gift left behind by my 5 year old petrolhead nephew

- Guitars - PRS Tremonti, a vintage Westone Concord I, Fender Jazz bass

Re: Working from home? Show us your home office

hey - Akash noticed the air purifier. Since you have mentioned that you live in Goa, am curious if the air is that bad!

I presume you are asking me. This is Ashok here. I am Chronic Asthmatic by birth and extremely sensitive and allergic to dust. Slightest dust is enough to cause breathing problem to me.

Hence I rely on the Coway Air purifier in my work cum bedroom to keep it as much dust free as possible.

The air quality in Goa is quite good (by city standards). I reside in Vasco that has the MPA (Mormugao Port Authority) from where the heavy port cargo movement by road / train/ river navigation happens and the same result in severe dust and air pollution in the city.

My health condition warrants me to have an air purifier at home. Otherwise,the air quality in Goa is generally good.

Re: Working from home? Show us your home office

Nice thread.

Here is my home office. Being in Pune there is too much dust that gets in on daily basis. So I wanted a easy way to clean the dust.

HP Mini PC has been put behind the monitor.

The below is where my personal laptop sits.

Alas.. All this is going to change as I will be moving to Mumbai shortly.

Re: Working from home? Show us your home office

Nothing fancy, looking to get a secondary monitor for way too long, confused to get whether a 2K + 144hz or a 4K 60hz or even a 2K + 100Hz is fine. Anyone who recently did any upgrades can shed some thoughts.
