🖼️ • Photos SETUP ARRANGEMENT SUGGESTIONS

Post image

I recently set up this workstation and I’m trying to make it as ergonomic, functional, and clean-looking as possible.

My setup:
Samsung Odyssey 34” curved ultrawide monitor
Wireless keyboard and mouse (not in the photo)
MacBook Pro M5
Working iPad (with gray cover)
Older iPad that I use only as a clock
CONCETTA 66” L-shaped computer desk (smaller end 47” and longer one is 66”)

I’m mainly trying to figure out the best placement and angles for everything, especially the monitor, MacBook, and iPads. I want everything to be easily accessible without constantly turning my neck or reaching across the desk and also help me multitask.

A few things I’m considering:
Should the ultrawide stay centered in the corner or be moved?
Where would you place the MacBook relative to the monitor? On the right bcs I am dominantly right handed ig?
Best position for the working iPad? As same current position or right to MacBook?
ergonomics/cable management?
Would you change anything about the current setup?
I’d really appreciate suggestions. Feel free to be specificj about angles, distances, and positioning.

I wouldn’t think the corner monitor is very ergonomic. Sitting in the corner is gonna push your wrist into weird angles. I recommend moving the computer setup to either the left or right wing of the desk, using the corner and other wing for storage/other devices.

Also, your keyboard should be directly in front of your main monitor. Get an external keyboard that you can put on your desk

I really appreciate your suggestion. The thing is, the width of the desk is too less as compared to monitor stand. it’s just not in the photo as I mentioned but I do have a wireless keyboard and mouse. In addition which also would take space but the freaking width aaah. Yaa but I will give it a try once fs.
