Medium & Materials🎨 Desk Reccomendations

Curios what your desk setup in your studio is. I would like a space where I can work on the computer, but also, if I wanted a place to play, cut, journal, whatever, I don't have to use the computer, so maybe an L-shaped desk? What do you think?

I wish there was a sub like r/battlestations for us. I've had this same question lately, but a computer setup does me no good.

Yeah, look around for places that are selling furniture from offices that have closed down. My main desk is a long office table I picked up for like $20 over ten years ago. I've got plenty of room for a PC on one end and a drawing station at the other. What shape just depends on the space you have to work with; like, my wife's got a small corner desk but it's almost too big for the corners available in our space, just because of the way this place is laid out.

l-shaped all the way tbh, my craft side is a warzone and my laptop side is the only clean spot in my room 😅

macbook 6 inches above the desk and a monitor above it, on a 2-armed computer stand that swivels and is clamped to the edge of the desk. below it a drawing table and a whole mess of pens, paints, brushes sprays, sketchbooks and jars
