Dual OS Setup in office desk setting
The cool thing about this setup is that it can be switched between mac mini and laptop with a press of a button without removing keyboard and mouse.

Wireless system & storage drive to keep the desk clean
KVM switcher
All this possible because the monito has a KVM switch built into it. The mouse and keyboard are connected to the back of the monitor. And the switch directs the connevtion to the right device. Having it like this works really well with my wireless mouse and keyboard to keep the desk clean and clutter-free.
Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse
Wireless keyboard and mouse in this office desk setting is the Logitech G915 TKL and the Logitech G502. It have been using for a whole year and the wireless connection is top-notch. Especially if you’re using both MAC and PC.
Storage Drive
The dual OS setup in this office desk setting can edit 4K videos with no problems at all. And that’s because of the thing that connected on the side. First, useing a two bay external drive that’s holding four terabytes in each bay in this office desk setting.
Wall Decor & Lights – Adding Personality in Office Desk Setting
Philips Hue Play
Signify has steadily expanded its Hue line of smart lighting products to cover the entire home, inside and out. But while the ability to remotely control your lighting, including adjusting color, intensity and brightness is great, one of its more recent products focuses more on how to turn all those connected lights into a dynamic, at-home interactive entertainment experience. The Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box is a relatively simple device that sits between your video sources, including things like game consoles and the Apple TV, and your television, enabling synced light shows that can take advantage of a wide range of Hue products.

Cable Management – The Essenyial Step
If you really want to make a space look good, cable management is a must. The goal is to not be able to see any cable when you’re looking at the setup from the front.
Desk shelf
Using a desk shelf really helps hide the cables connected to the back of the computers.
Cable Ties
Under the desk it’s using the cable management solution that’s made specifically for this desk. And the unique thing is that you can actually tie things to it through the holes.
And the last thing was to run the power and thunderbolt four cables through a clip at the end of the desk so that can move freely up and down with the standing desk. It’s definitely worth investing the 10 or 20 minutes to hide your cables as it makes a massive difference.
