The BIG WFH Office pictures!
- Mar 17, 2020
Hey Simon Binder here's my WFH setup I mostly work from home for about 2 years now, so I try to make the home office as nice as possible as this is where I spend most of my work time.
Simon Binder here's my office setup, right next to MStrant!
I have a standing desk, so when I really want to focus I put headphones and and go into standing mode for 25 minutes at a time. The right monitor is dedicated to showing the app built in this blog post, with some additions since then including a Pomodoro timer.
I've worked from home for the past 16 years, both self employed and as a Microsoft full time remote employee. I fully appreciate that not everyone can dedicate an entire room (or even an entire desk) to work, especially if they're not usually in a work from home role.
I use an L shaped desk, with my tech along one side and a nice clear working space on the other side. I do a lot of long format writing and reading, so I love my portrait monitor. It's also really important for ergonomics to get your laptop screen elevated if you are also using it as a monitor.
Not pictured is a good chair - mine's a mesh style similar to the Herman Miller but without the price tag. It took me a few tries to find one I liked that didn't wreck my back or my tailbone, after hating the "gamer style" padded chair I had.
