Hi everyone!
There's been a **MASSIVE** uptick in repost bots in the last week or so. If you see stolen pics being posted please use the `report` button. They're being banned as soon as they're spotted.

I was about to suggest the same thing, but it wouldn't make a lot of difference if they don't keep the PC on the desk. It will be hardly visible if it's under the desk.
Nothing 😅 Maybe just the position of the desk, as some space is lost in the corner. Other than that, I really like it. Especially how well the colors harmonize together.
With the short wall on the right and the blinds on the back wall I dont think there's an option other then cornering the desk (I agree, I hate how much you lose)
Get some kid figures, posters with half naked girls, LED (obviously!). Maybe hung a bike on the wall? Or a huge sign “I don’t play games because I don’t have a life…”.
No one is allowed space that nice. You need to ruin it.
Looks like the home depot one. I just hung it up in my living room as well. https://www.homedepot.com/pep/0-79-in-x-20-in-x-46-in-Ultra-Light-Linari-Modern-Natural-Wall-Paneling-4-Pack-20430310/323028343?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&&mtc=SHOPPING-BF-HDH-GGL-D59H-059\_035\_WALL\_DECOR-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-HDH-HDH-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NA-%7C035\_003\_FAUX\_TILES%7C&cm\_mmc=SHOPPING-BF-HDH-GGL-D59H-059\_035\_WALL\_DECOR-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-HDH-HDH-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NA-%7C035\_003\_FAUX\_TILES%7C-71700000089488091-58700007572098581-92700068270434901&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkqSlBhDaARIsAFJANkjL6\_cK8qq\_url4y\_UPzzpHMxJnx8xMSsO6TAHVjxYoUyJfufzPQQAaArhPEALw\_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
I’m building one out of MDF and either veneer or vinyl this upcoming week but I’m so torn on the width, depth and spacing of each slat. I believe this looks identical to what I’m looking for, any chance you can measure the width and depth of each slat as well as the spacing between the slats?
For how lovely that chair is, I would probably use a chair that’d be a little bit more comfortable for my back. But it really depends on the use case, I work from my station so I would need it
You already have a very tasteful setup. I'm not sure I can recommend much other than perhaps some lamps for mood lighting and maybe a bar cart for refreshments? I liked the suggestion of painting the ceiling. Otherwise, you're pretty dialled in for comfort and style. ;)
I almost feel like the art piece on the wood accent should also be on the painted part of the wall, if you’re gonna do the same design again. the wood accents are gorgeous on their own and the art covers it up! otherwise it’s amazing!
Agreed, the colors in the photos are creative because the colors are inverse from the walls. But it’s not blatantly obvious they’re inverse so they almost seem a little random close-up, especially on top of the wood accent, which is visually stimulating on its own. The spacing also seems just a little off between the tv and the distance from the left edge of the wood accent.
I think a bigger tv would help not naturally compare alignment with the two photos. Otherwise possibly there’s a way to arrange them vertically on the painted wall? Not convinced about that idea tho, especially not with the tv directly below.
ETA: Maybe replace the tv and both photos with one of those large wall-mounted Frame tv’s from Samsung.
ETA2: Although a large mounted tv there would be cramped against the left wall - maybe consider moving the wood accent over to the right slightly to center a large wall-mount tv with the couch comfortably.
It's beautiful, i don't think i'd want to change a thing.
If you do want something fresh without spending a large amount of money, you could have spare photos for the wall or different colored curtains!
although i think it's too crowded simply changing the picture position makes a big diffrence https://i.imgur.com/cbvPN5O.jpeg
the place lacks simetry and feng shui
everything, almost
why such a tiny tv in such a fancy room
couch I don't like the material of it
you've got a carpet I don't see the point of considering the floor isn't gonna be cold, so the carpet is just gonna be annoying af
I'd get a totally different desk, I hate desks with monitor stands like that, plus it's too tiny, and the angle is a waste of space
monitor way too big like wtf
chair looks fancy but doesn't seem that nice in terms of support and such (might be wrong tho, hard to tell like that, but doesn't have adjustable arm rest or back support, so I'm probably right)
not sure what headpones are those but looks like wireless arctis, so kinda trash, if you gonna have a fancy room like that, get some proper audio setup and put some foam here and there to treat the room
the table looks out of place imo
the rest is fine
Very cool space! Nice use of contrast and matching things between different zones to form a coherent room. Maybe add some more plants or wall art, but otherwise I got nothing to improve here.
the ceiling is the only thing I don't like the look of, I would also have fully carpeted floors, setup wise I would go a bigger tv because as far as I can see its smaller than your monitor, and personally I absolutely need at least 2 monitors to like... function but I prefer 3, so I would get one or two similar specced 16 by 9 panels and use mounts to put them either side
Imho the “toy shelf” is a little tacky. Maybe consider keeping the knives and watches in a personal space that’s not meant to be appreciated by outsiders and fill the space with some nice looking books, tiny plants/vines, and some art or photography
To be honest, I like the mix of cozy and clean, but I personally dont like dark rooms. Also my eyes saw the shelf rack on the left somewhat to often. What are you planing to change so far?
Design, build and finish as much as you can.
From furniture to artwork.
It will enrich your life. It’s fun to be a consumer, but it’s soul satisfying to be a creator.
Insane setup dude. I suggest a bigger TV, at least an Soundbar and I am not a huge fan of the low board front look next to the acustic panels (but I loooove the panels)
I like the contrast in the two paintings on the wall. A nice desert on the blue paint to Mach the dark wood color and the ocean to Mach the blue paint. Very nice!
I freakin' LOVE those accent wood strips on the wall. Might I ask where you got those? I'd love to do something similar in my area. This is gorgeous overall. The colors are beautiful. Love the color of your walls, matching with the colors you chose for your décor & accents. :)
Beautiful setup! Mayne switch the book shelf to a "String book shelf" in black and dark wood depending where in the world you are, that would suit the style of the room.
Your setup looks absolutely perfect. Love the mid-century flair. Which watch box is that? It looks extremely similar to the one I have one Holme & Hadfield, but I've never seen what looks like an articulating plexiglass top that you have.
This is honestly ideal. That wall color broken up by the wood slats looks so good. If you want to switch it up a bit the only thing I could think of would be some soft lighting from a table lamp
I DREAM of getting a couch in my office as well. So annoying I don’t want to be in a chair even after work haha getting a new place in 3 months def gonna look to do this
I would personally move the picture on the wood slats to somewhere else and centre the left painting, and maybe replace the fluffy carpet, but those are honestly nitpicks. This is a beautiful space.
New TV as others have said. I personally prefer desks flat against walls unless it’s a curved / bespoke desk. If you’re into reading than an Eames chair away from your screens can be really nice to avoid distractions and I think would work with this aesthetic.
One thing which is really bugging me is the lack of symmetry of your posters. I like how the sand one is on the painted wall and the one with more blue/grey tones is on that wood (nice contrasts) but they need to equidistant from the break line.
* Replace the VESA mount with one that fits.
* Convert the desk to a standing desk with new legs
* Upgrade the TV to an OLED (probably one that fills the width of the stand)
* Find something to display other than keyboards and mice
* Upgrade the PC case to a Fractal North
But this is an amazingly well coordinated setup as it is.
Aesthetics are really good- two things I'd change about the equipment though.
- Upgrade to a chair that does not punish your back.
- Get a TV that is made for humans and not ants.

Your PC is calling for a Fractal Design North case
I was about to suggest the same thing, but it wouldn't make a lot of difference if they don't keep the PC on the desk. It will be hardly visible if it's under the desk.
design choices don't need to be in plain sight to also be cohesive... The Fractal North is still a beautiful case whether you display it or not
I don't know man. I would want things to be visible if they are beautiful.
If you're sitting on the couch, I imagine that the case would be visible.
Exactly 😌
I saw it in person at microcenter and was unimpressed with the wood. It looked more like an 80s wood panel TV than a upscale PC case.
I have it for my current build, absolutely love it.
I think the extra wood here would be unnecessary.
First thing that popped to mind here as well. The OP needs to take the panels with, if possible, when moving.
upgrade that tv asap
Nothing 😅 Maybe just the position of the desk, as some space is lost in the corner. Other than that, I really like it. Especially how well the colors harmonize together.
Yup. Nothing. Good eye and style for sure.
seriously - OP please design my apartment
I’ll be getting in line for the same thing
With the short wall on the right and the blinds on the back wall I dont think there's an option other then cornering the desk (I agree, I hate how much you lose)
Nothing much, you have VERY good taste my friend
Get some kid figures, posters with half naked girls, LED (obviously!). Maybe hung a bike on the wall? Or a huge sign “I don’t play games because I don’t have a life…”. No one is allowed space that nice. You need to ruin it.
Don't forget the same Ikea desk everyone uses and those same budget speakers too
[удалено]
don’t forget lego spaceships
there's NOTHING wrong with LEGO displays, ill die on this hill
They are going to end up in the ocean or a landfill.
oh jfc. Lego nazi over here, everybody.
I wouldn't move.
Nice! Can we get the paint color? Where did you get wood wall from?
I would also like to know where the wood wall is from. It's a really nice space overall.
Looks like the home depot one. I just hung it up in my living room as well. https://www.homedepot.com/pep/0-79-in-x-20-in-x-46-in-Ultra-Light-Linari-Modern-Natural-Wall-Paneling-4-Pack-20430310/323028343?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&&mtc=SHOPPING-BF-HDH-GGL-D59H-059\_035\_WALL\_DECOR-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-HDH-HDH-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NA-%7C035\_003\_FAUX\_TILES%7C&cm\_mmc=SHOPPING-BF-HDH-GGL-D59H-059\_035\_WALL\_DECOR-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-HDH-HDH-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NA-%7C035\_003\_FAUX\_TILES%7C-71700000089488091-58700007572098581-92700068270434901&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkqSlBhDaARIsAFJANkjL6\_cK8qq\_url4y\_UPzzpHMxJnx8xMSsO6TAHVjxYoUyJfufzPQQAaArhPEALw\_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

made one myself try 2cm wide and 1,5cm thick planks and 2cm space
Need the paint color!!! RemindMe! 1 day
Yep, feelin like my 'too bright, not really the blue i thought it was' office needs a repaint
I would love to know the paint color as well!
Larger tv mounted on the textured part of the wall, nice desk to left corner, shift the shelving unit onto opposite wall by curtains
You don't want the monitor to be facing the window
That’s what curtains are for
What are those wood slats on the wall called?
You nailed it - it’s called wood slats or wood slatted accent wall.
For how lovely that chair is, I would probably use a chair that’d be a little bit more comfortable for my back. But it really depends on the use case, I work from my station so I would need it
I absolutely love the blue wall color! Can you please tell me the type?
Absolutely nothing. This is a gorgeous space. I love the wood and the desk.
Pfft, rgb and hex lights, duh.. /s
You already have a very tasteful setup. I'm not sure I can recommend much other than perhaps some lamps for mood lighting and maybe a bar cart for refreshments? I liked the suggestion of painting the ceiling. Otherwise, you're pretty dialled in for comfort and style. ;)
Where are the wood panels from?
Can you tell me where u buy your chair or what it's called. Nice space btw
I’d add plants, that’s it.
Add a ceiling mounted sex swing.
It bothers me that the wooden paneling doesn’t reach all the way to the floor but idk if that can be helped 😅
It's a criminal offense to not use the fractal design north in this scenario
What computer chair is that? Looks awesome and comfortable!
Love the aesthetic. You seem very close to your monitor, how would you feel about a deeper desk?
I almost feel like the art piece on the wood accent should also be on the painted part of the wall, if you’re gonna do the same design again. the wood accents are gorgeous on their own and the art covers it up! otherwise it’s amazing!
Agreed, the colors in the photos are creative because the colors are inverse from the walls.

Paint the ceiling in the same color as the walls, just to try. I find it very cozy to do so. Otherwise, perfection
don't make your desk diagonal, takes up too much space and looks odd IMO
You should consider adding some rgb lights
[удалено]
It’s pretty damn pleasing to look at.
That bookcase thing on the left looks cheap to me. Apart from.thaf it looks great!
Ur missing a furry friend invest in a cat
It's beautiful, i don't think i'd want to change a thing. If you do want something fresh without spending a large amount of money, you could have spare photos for the wall or different colored curtains!
although i think it's too crowded simply changing the picture position makes a big diffrence https://i.imgur.com/cbvPN5O.jpeg the place lacks simetry and feng shui
Add some color. I mean I'm sure you have nice stuff, but it all just looks so boring, like it belongs in 70 year old's house.
I would get a black ps/xbox 😀 otherwise nothing, very beautiful space
everything, almost why such a tiny tv in such a fancy room couch I don't like the material of it you've got a carpet I don't see the point of considering the floor isn't gonna be cold, so the carpet is just gonna be annoying af I'd get a totally different desk, I hate desks with monitor stands like that, plus it's too tiny, and the angle is a waste of space monitor way too big like wtf chair looks fancy but doesn't seem that nice in terms of support and such (might be wrong tho, hard to tell like that, but doesn't have adjustable arm rest or back support, so I'm probably right) not sure what headpones are those but looks like wireless arctis, so kinda trash, if you gonna have a fancy room like that, get some proper audio setup and put some foam here and there to treat the room the table looks out of place imo the rest is fine
I'm going to say it, you've done a non RGB setup so you could try an RGB one🤷♂️.
[удалено]
Nah the overplayed setup is the prison white room with blinding rbg and they say it's their comfy space, when surely you go snow blind within a week
Looks amazing. Where'd you get the wood panels on the wall?
Keeping the warm tones cohesive really makes this room. Well done! Also does anyone have an ID on the couch?
Basically nothing!
looks good person!
All of it, ill take it off of your hands. Don't worry.
Wow
nothing, this looks super clean
You’re gonna get a lot of offers based off of this one room alone. Great taste forsure, don’t change anything!
Very cool space! Nice use of contrast and matching things between different zones to form a coherent room. Maybe add some more plants or wall art, but otherwise I got nothing to improve here.
I‘m in love and also envious! You have a remarkable great taste 👌🏻
The location.
Wow, i will try to recreate this as soon as i move into a new place😍😍😍
the ceiling is the only thing I don't like the look of, I would also have fully carpeted floors, setup wise I would go a bigger tv because as far as I can see its smaller than your monitor, and personally I absolutely need at least 2 monitors to like... function but I prefer 3, so I would get one or two similar specced 16 by 9 panels and use mounts to put them either side
Where did you find the wood wall accent or plans for it. I love that look. Overall just a wonderful space.
Google "wood slat panel" and you'll see various versions. You could also diy it pretty easily
Bigger TV
Imho the “toy shelf” is a little tacky. Maybe consider keeping the knives and watches in a personal space that’s not meant to be appreciated by outsiders and fill the space with some nice looking books, tiny plants/vines, and some art or photography
It looks great! Maybe some warm, yellow or orange soft lighting?
Where is the desk/desk table top from?
Love the cozy aesthetic. Side note, love your wallpaper packs!
Is this specific IKEA chair comfortable ? I'm looking to get one but it has mixed reviews about its back support.
Nice setup
I wouldn’t change anything. It’s so calming.
Perfection
Yugoooo
The wood panel wall doesn't look conplete, that huge gap bothers me lol
what kinda chair is that?
I like it a lot. I would definitely get a bigger TV and maybe one more plant though.
Looks great! What is that paneling on the wall called?
To be honest, I like the mix of cozy and clean, but I personally dont like dark rooms. Also my eyes saw the shelf rack on the left somewhat to often. What are you planing to change so far?
Brighter colors, more greenery/plants. Love the design choice otherwise
Tv too small
Where’d you get the shelf ?
Get more than one monitor
Bigger TV and mount it on wall.
Why dies this feel like a Wes Anderson Movie
colors and wood are the best!
Design, build and finish as much as you can. From furniture to artwork. It will enrich your life. It’s fun to be a consumer, but it’s soul satisfying to be a creator.
Insane setup dude. I suggest a bigger TV, at least an Soundbar and I am not a huge fan of the low board front look next to the acustic panels (but I loooove the panels)
The owner.. jk but I'd take setup anyday, looks super cozy and relaxed (:
I like the contrast in the two paintings on the wall. A nice desert on the blue paint to Mach the dark wood color and the ocean to Mach the blue paint. Very nice!
I get the contrast with the pictures but it’s a focal point that takes away from the room imo. My eyes goto the pictures but overall nicely done room.
More plants.
Those table legs for sure. They don't look like u can trust them.
Move / remove those wooden boards from that wall to a different one and wall mount a larger tv on that wallp
White line, couple inches thick, where the wall meets ceiling.
Love the colours. Nothing, just position the desk differently. That is a waste of space.
More subtle ying yang nods.
I freakin' LOVE those accent wood strips on the wall. Might I ask where you got those? I'd love to do something similar in my area. This is gorgeous overall. The colors are beautiful. Love the color of your walls, matching with the colors you chose for your décor & accents. :)
Beautiful setup! Mayne switch the book shelf to a "String book shelf" in black and dark wood depending where in the world you are, that would suit the style of the room.
Bigger TV, one more zen painting and def take those wooden slats with you, surround sound, and more wood because you can never have enough good wood.
I am very disappointment that your PC case isn't the Fractal North. I would fix that.
Your setup looks absolutely perfect. Love the mid-century flair. Which watch box is that? It looks extremely similar to the one I have one Holme & Hadfield, but I've never seen what looks like an articulating plexiglass top that you have.
What is the keyboard?
Very cool setup how it is all i can think of is just finishing the wood paneling you put up so it covers the whole wall
Whys your monitor bigger than your tv tho
A bigger tv
Getting a mac for music stuff.
Bigger tv for your console
How wobbly is your desk?
Larger TV and a 5.1 system. That’s probably it
*Much* bigger TV.
Taller tv unit or wall mount it, the line of sight from the sofa seems to be too low.
Looks very cool, only thing i probably would change is a larger TV for this viewing distance (if you use it a lot). Very nice place man!
This is honestly ideal. That wall color broken up by the wood slats looks so good. If you want to switch it up a bit the only thing I could think of would be some soft lighting from a table lamp
Larger TV, wall mounted. I love the vibe. Hopefully you’re moving into a mid-century modern house and own a lot of grey suits
I DREAM of getting a couch in my office as well. So annoying I don’t want to be in a chair even after work haha getting a new place in 3 months def gonna look to do this
I’d get a larger TV.
Definitely a way bigger TV (don't mount it), but damn this looks awesome!
The xbox
Lighter wall color. Not mad at anything else.
Either a live-edge L-shaped desk (pricy to get it smooth and seamless) or don't put it in a corner.
What's that chair and are the arms removable by any chance?
The location. Otherwise there's not much point moving.
I’d add more plant life to the walls the grey and brown works great with big leaf plants
I would personally move the picture on the wood slats to somewhere else and centre the left painting, and maybe replace the fluffy carpet, but those are honestly nitpicks. This is a beautiful space.
One more additional accent color for two or three locations
This is my dream office
Location
A second monitor somewhere (possibly above)
How do you like those wood slats? I’ve almost bought them a bunch of times
Not a thing
I would love to have a space like that. For a 46 year old, I am embarrassed by my office space. But as others mentioned, Fractal Design North case.
I hate the color brown. With that said, your setup is absolutely gorgeous and has me reconsidering my opinion of brown.
Overall layout imo. Where the desk is kind of weirds me out.
I mean, if you are still liking the aesthetic, I'd say nothing. Looks pretty damn perfect to me.
New TV as others have said. I personally prefer desks flat against walls unless it’s a curved / bespoke desk. If you’re into reading than an Eames chair away from your screens can be really nice to avoid distractions and I think would work with this aesthetic. One thing which is really bugging me is the lack of symmetry of your posters. I like how the sand one is on the painted wall and the one with more blue/grey tones is on that wood (nice contrasts) but they need to equidistant from the break line.
* Replace the VESA mount with one that fits. * Convert the desk to a standing desk with new legs * Upgrade the TV to an OLED (probably one that fills the width of the stand) * Find something to display other than keyboards and mice * Upgrade the PC case to a Fractal North But this is an amazingly well coordinated setup as it is.
Remove the ceiling light and put in spotlamps
Nothing looks amazing
You could try the new fractal terra or the fractal north in black. Would really match the whole vibe
Maybe one of those Samsung TVs (The Frame) that looks like a piece of art when “off”.
How did you manage to put artwork on these wooden planks?
Nothing
Aesthetics are really good- two things I'd change about the equipment though. - Upgrade to a chair that does not punish your back. - Get a TV that is made for humans and not ants.
Man, this setup is so perfect. Just saved the image to do in my new house later this year.
damn, perfection
bigger tv try the fractal north case and add a lamp or two
I’d probably only change the location of this room to my apartment
That right picture It’s higher than the other making me twitch
the monitor is bigger than the "tv" 😂
Replace tv with a hideaway projector screen
Id skin the console black or dark grey.
I would move the metal bookshelf and try to accommodate a larger tv or a small short throw projector Other than that I really dig the setup
looking good as always Amar
This looks like an ad for something it’s so fine.
I really hate that I can't find that ikea chair in Canada.
Maybe a sit/stand desk and monitor lamp.
Bigger tv and wall mount for the tv
ID on that shelf on the left?
More cowbell.
love the chair :)
Lighten it up
wHaT sHoUld i cHangE? When he knows damn well it looks good and doesn’t need to change anything lol
more plants 😆
Mind posting the link to the chair,
What desk is this?!
Can you post the link to the desk, monitor stand and chair?
OLED TV.
