    I love the way the light bars illuminate the plant wall behind the monitor! I wouldn’t have thought of doing something like that, but I like it. I’m starting from a pretty blank slate in my flat - newly built, currently all painted white with neutral pale oak floors. I’m working out plans for a multi purpose home office/living room area (also open plan to the kitchen and space for a dining table... it’s a hard working small space!). I’ve got the white Fully Jarvis desk frame very similar to this one, but haven’t decided on a table top yet (their tops were all waaaay back ordered so I’m planning to pick up a kitchen worktop in the right size), so right now I’m using my terrible old dining table as a desk, which is way too small as well as being ugly, so I need to hurry up and make decisions! Going to check out your other desk related videos after this one on the hunt for more ideas 😀

    $2700 for everything not including shelving, ikea plants, the board, headphones, and laptop. Also doesn't include taxes.
    Oh, and if you all want the vaccum its an additional $650 before tax, and the stand is $80 before tax. Enjoy your day!
