This is just nit picking but it would look better/cleaner if you centered that picture above your monitor rather than have it off to the side.
Here is my minimal setup, nothing major at all

Thank you for posting this !
Been thinking about bying that desk
It's a great desk. I wasn't sure if I should get this or the BEKANT electric professional version, but for half the money, the SKARSTA is great value.
It costs about 45 seconds to get it fully up or down and the desk is quite sturdy in both positions.
Thanks! That's my old SE on the top shelf, then one down is a PowerBook 540c and a ThinkPad 760XL. Left of those is my collection of originals - my old original iPhone, iPod, and Apple TV. And a small portion of my book collection - you can never have too many!
Wanted to change my setup a bit again... Moved my old 2011 iMac back to my room for a dual screen setup. I'm enjoying the dual screen experience again..A little has changed since last year but not much difference... Fixed the wobbling issue by mounting the table to the wall studs.. Added a drawer underneath the table, new K811 keyboard since my wireless keyboard gave up after 6 years.. and finally a new office chair I am willing to show...
My plan is to replace the macbook pro to a Mac Pro in the near future...

That's a LCS from a dual G5 that died a few years back. It's a neat-looking thingy, and it makes for a great bookend

Sorry if this is like an old subject but do you really have to prop up the TBD to make it level with the iMac? You'd think Apple would've sorted that out.
2009 Mac Pro Quad 2.66 and 2005 G5 Dual Core 2.3. Running off of 2 20inch cinema displays and sound provided by Harmon Kardon sound sticks and isub. Keyboard is wireless solar powered K750 Mac edition and a Cobra E-Blue mouse.

My first Mac setup. Mid 2015 15" Macbook Pro with my 27" ASUS VX279Q Monitor.

I think I will always have to have a Macbook Pro as my main laptop. I have had too much joy with my late 2013 rMBP to even consider another laptop. I won't be replacing this one for awhile anyway. Here's my setup with the ipad air 2 on the far left and my rMBP on the far right.

Not sure if someone already asked this, but do you mind sharing what spokes those are? They look great.
I've been meaning to take better pictures of my setup, but I haven't had the chance, so for now here you go.
First, this was taken about a year and a half ago. This is what my setup looked like up until a month ago.

Since then I've gotten a new 5K iMac, so I had to make some modifications to the desk. Removed the large shelf, added two smaller speaker shelves.

From that display to a 5K iMac, sweet upgrade! Your eyes must think its christmas everyday!
Had only one evening with it so far so not yet totally settled. But still I am pretty sure there is no going back
switching from 30" to 40" the screen real estate doubled
I also thought of 27-32 4K monitors. With those you would have better DPI, but not much more working space. Not without making everything tiny anyways.
So in my opinion this is the way to go.
I absolutely love mine. I moved from a 3 screen setup (19-24-19) and love the simplicity of one big screen. I use divvy to keep my windows tidy.
Every time I use mine i am amazed at the age of wonder we live in, and this screen is the main reason I look at the current Mac range and wonder if there will ever be a new Mac I want to "upgrade" to? Who wants a puny 27" iMac after using a 40" screen? nMP costs too much, and Mac Mini won't drive 40K at 60Hz.
