I'm reorganising my study and am looking for a new desk set up for my editing work station. It would be really helpful to me for ideas if people could share images of their work spaces to give me some ideas please

I also need a new desk for my computer/editing work. Looking forward to seeing what others are using.

Maybe post your question in another forum?


When you see my camera gear you'll think I'm a pro.
When you see my photos you'll know that I'm not.

I highly recommend a motorized standing desk and an ergonomic chair if you can afford one or the other. I'm using a 72 inch Fully Jarvis Bamboo and "cheap" Steelcase chair. A standing mat with mixed terrain to shift weight is also dope. The Jarvis comes in a variety of shapes and sizes that are more affordable or adept for small spaces too. Reviews for standing desks are hard to come by as a lot of companies have their employees write their own reviews, but I finally got decent feedback from a friend and aerospace engineer and have been personally happy with the one I chose. I think Steelcase makes a higher quality one but it's (Italian mob gesture) very spendy to say the least.

Best shot I have. It is a glass top motorized desk, not quite standing height, but I have a good quality task chair and ergo tall stool. Desk isn't very wide, but I have side wooden file cabinets that hold everything I don't need in front of me.
Yes, I need the bourbon in front of me...:-D

It's the best setup I could come up with that leaves enough floor space for my 2 Irish Wolfhounds room to sleep in there.

Funny how that works when I was looking for an L shaped desk my two priorities were

#1 that the desk was set up dual monitors at the corner.
#2 that the layout of the leg supports for the desk had room for my vizsla to lay at my feet.

If #2 was not met, #1 didnt matter :)

This would require me to clean my desk.

I'd have to give that a lot of thought.

Same, and I just did a major overhaul of my workspace. Here is about half of it in a mostly-done state from a couple weeks back, but I still have some final bits and pieces to deal with to finish cleaning up.

Put some more art up on the wall today and did some more organizing and tidying, so it's getting close.

I gotta clean up my setup and post it, seriously. :-|

It's all dusty and disheveled, but it's a 3x6-foot desktop of solid walnut,
atop a 2-drawer base of Baltic birch plywood, a single stand for dual monitors,
leather pads for the desktop and keyboard tray, and other cool stuff.

Couldn't be happier with it.  :p
