New home office

[glorybound]

It's been crazy and I am never moving again! Awhile back we all shared our office space. I thought it would be a good time (for me) to start that thread again .

Introducing my new home office. (http://bobby-parker.com/architectura...log/new-office) I would love to see yours.

Looks good Bobby. Beautiful view outside. But what's with this one screen business? You need two or three at least

You know, I started with three screens, went to two screens and settles on one larger 4K screen. I have read so many things on multiple monitors and you can argue both sides of it being more or less productive. For me, I am distracted too much with more than one monitor.

Nice! I love the recliner for a chair .

Very cool Bobby - congrats on the move! That's a pretty cool mouse pad. Is that all it is - an edge-lit mouse pad? I'm jealous of your move. We debated selling, but we'd have to relocate to find anything affordable (we live north of Dallas, TX - growth up here is insane). I want at least an acre - tired of my neighbor's house being 10 feet away. How big is your lot, if you don't mind my asking?

Thanks! Yes, all it does is light up, but it is cool at night with the back lite monitor and rainbow keyboard. Moving is a pain, but if you are moving up it is worth it, I guess. We got an acre with no neighbors, which is nice.

I'm sharing office and this is my side....I built my desk using IKEA countertops and the frame is made of metal studs.

Nice and I love the metal stud desk. Is that huge box on the bottom right your PC? It's huge!

Mini farm (4 computers) & backup drive ....my desktop is on the other corner( by the monitor)

[glorybound]

Just one monitor!

[flino2004]

I'm working more on my laptop.....I don't like to be stuck in one place...sometimes I work from home, office, coffee shop, etc. ( I use my Ipad as the second monitor.)....I'm simplifying my life, I haven't used my farm in a while, only Rubus farm.
my laptop has 32GB ram and so far I haven't had any problems.


I also use the TV as a second monitor BTW.

32 Gb is getting you by, good for you. From start to finish on a laptop might cause me some anxiety. I purchased a 2017 MBP, but it's pretty much an expensive chromebook IMO. What are you using?

[flino2004]

Alienware 17x ...I use XREFs, Proxies... 8GB video card, SSD and it's working well.

Wanted to contribute but don't have any good pictures of my office space. Here's a screen grab of a 3d scan I did of it. Essentially a glorified closet - my 'office nook'. Has 2 pocket doors to close and hide all my hideous electronics It's a standing desk sort of setup. The 27" monitor almost feels like two screens if you get close enough. 1 PC to work on, and a 5 node helmer modded render farm that is starting to show its age. Synology NAS for project files - and a battery backup for the NAS in case of power failure.
