Phase 2’s here in this year’s Desk Setup journey.

So I did a thing: put the two setups together, side-by-side. I don’t know what’s up, but it worked. So I took a few shots to share with you how the space looks like at the moment. The space is coming together nicely. I’d say merging the home office and the cafe’s a good coo.. There’s the delicious aroma of coffee, clean white walls for focus, a few artworks for inspiration, and lighting that gives the right vibe for the right activity.

Also, the Lofree Hyzen’s taking the center stage in this setup. I recently talked about it on the channel, and reviewed it like an architect would. If you want to check it out, just click on my profile.

Save this for inspo, and share with someone who loves home office setups too. Happy monday, fam!

After a week of “living a little”, it’s time to get back to work. We recently received this new hardwood walnut desk from ‪@vernal_space‬, from their new Core3 line. Despite its weight and massive size, building it was a breeze. On top of its intuitive design, it has such a beautiful finish that added much needed warmth to our space. I’m really happy with how minimal the space is turning out to be. I just can’t bring myself to add more things to the setup. I’m working on a full length tour to show you what we’ve done with the space, as well as some of updates on my current desk and home office lineup of items this 2026. I promise it’s going to be fun, so do follow along. Can’t wait to share it with you all soon! That said, happy new week.

A few shots of some of my favourite items when doing short walks, quick commutes, and cafe runs. I missed curating darker setups and item collections. So I thought of doing a new “blacked out” EDC visual journal.

Everything fits the Flight Sling from ALPAKA. Easily one of my new daily faves.

Would you like me to do an updated EDC video soon? Let me know in the comments!

Time flies! It’s finally March, the last month of the first quarter of the year. I just realized it’s been a hot minute since I posted my desk setup, and what best way to re-showcase it by also slapping on this beautiful wallpaper from my friend, ‪@harrisonniap‬. It’s part of his forthcoming “GLASSTATE” Wallpaper Pack, which is coming very very soon. I’m super stoked about it, so I’m sorry I had to post it soon haha. But anyways, I’m not exactly changing things up drastically, except moving this desk around the studio to see which configurations will fit my needs the best. Save this for inspo, and don’t forget to share this with a friend who’s also into home workspace / desk setups. Tag them here!

Happy Monday, fam. Wishing you an awesome week ahead.

We've neglected this space a bit over the past few months.

I think it's because of the friction from scattered remotes, messy game controllers, and an overall lack of structure. While browsing online, I found some images that inspired me to be more intentional with the space. I organized the cables, added a flowerpot lamp on the side, and made the most important update: a full-length desk shelf to raise the TV and store key items neatly. I went with a matte black shelf and matching tray, where I now tuck away the Apple TV remote and my YU 4 speaker remote. Under the desk, I placed a few books lent by my uncle and cousin. Essentially, a few reminders of two other things that bring us joy: coffee and cycling.

Now, the space feels more organized and a bit more elegant. Also, it was fun to shoot the detail shots of the shelf.

Subscribe for more updates! Happy start of the week, fam!

Okay, so these were shots earlier this year, but I have to say that these shots really represented a cozy welcome for the year. So I’m repurposing them to welcome a brand new month, and a brand new week. A few key things were added to my space, like this floor lamp I got online (it’s literally from a store I can’t remember, but it looks super good), a Zara table lamp, my trusty old Switch (I picked up a Demon Slayer game and been playing it whenever I can), and currently the guitar I recently picked up from my friend, the Danelectro NOS+.

Been busy doing some recordings here, and can’t wait to finish the full-length album.

Happy February!
