On the left there is a a streamdeck xl attached through a 3d-printed bracket … The Mac Studio is attached to the desk with the humancentric under desk mount:

Absolutely love this to the point where I might just steal the style.
And love this setup too. Minimalist. But seriously, how do you get any work done with that view?
Sort of a big update for my setup - in the quest to set up a central digital art setup for my drawing, I purchased a Wacom Cintiq 16. It doubles nicely as a 2nd monitor so even when I'm not drawing it still gets use.
I bought an ergonomic laptop stand which has tilt swivel and height adjustments. Not perfect but it's much better than the foldable feet the tablet comes with.

Nice setup. I'm curious, given the cost, what made you go for the Studio display? I'd love to splurge but I'm not sure my view of Excel justifies it!
I Only bought it because it was on sale at Sam’s Club. I saw it for $1199 and that’s what made me pull the trigger. I’ve been eyeballing it since it came out but couldn’t justify it before.
Here's my updated desk setup:
M1 Max 16" MacBook Pro
Apple Studio Display
Apple Mighty Mouse
iPod 5.5 30 GB with iPod HiFi Speaker
AirPods Max
Ikea Gronos Table Lamp and Ikea Modermoln Task Lamp
Ikea Siggfinn Monitor Riser

A nice setup rounded off with a beautiful picture on the right wall.
The comparison of modern tech with the simple life of a great man.
I don't have a fancy setup like you guys...
Mac Mini stock
Samsung G8
Some keyboard from Amazon
Razer Deathadder V3
7800x3d + 9070XT + 32GB + 2TB
Both computers are bother hardwired via Ethernet and shares a NAS.
Seriously……your setup is pretty slick….
I like the wall mounts, they look really useful…👍
YEA YOU DO!
My PC also has a 7800x3d and 9070xt, I do have a couple SSDs and 64gb ram though.Also you've got a steam deck and idk miniature gundams and a bunch of cool car figures. I love your setup!
It's been forever since I posted a setup picture anywhere but I do have a recent mac in mine now!
What all do I have going on in there? A lot. On the left I have my mac studio, it's connected to the 25" screen at all times and KVM'd onto my 57" screen when I want to use it there.
On the right I have my gaming PC (as mentioned, it has a 7080x3d processor and a 9070xt gpu) - it mostly runs Fedora linux and plays all the games I enjoy playing. The 57" is also KVM'd onto my work laptop, a 2018 i9 macbook pro that I will probably use until it stops working LOL.
Between my pc and the grandfather clock is a trashcan mac pro, I used to use it on my left side. The lack of MacOS updates and I wanted a more powerful machine for whatever it is I use that for.
Also my beloved guitar, an orange crush amp, a tiny spark go amp. Stuff.
Keyboards are a corsair k65+ in translucent blue with gateron silver switches and peanuts keycaps from 'thekapco'. And a dygma raise. As comfortable as the dygma raise is, they cost too much and I'm not a fan of their lax attitude towards fixing firmware bugs. I use a g pro wireless on the left and a g502x on the right. There's an apple trackpad too, using it in the middle of a split keyboard is SUPER COMFY.
It's a very comfortable place to work and play.
I have the matching wrist wrest and deskmat for the peanuts keyboard too, but don't really want to use them in the current setup heheh. They're so cute too!
