It was an interesting read. Didn't feel that this person really followed their own rules about pre-owned. It wouldn't be for me, it feels like a very stark style. I got a really nice large wooden desk for cheap from a store in the US when I lived there, it was <50% retail price because of some bad surface scratches. Here in NZ wooden furniture is stupidly expensive. I've just finished, nearly 10 years later, resurfacing it. Plenty of space for crap on top, plus three drawers to hide cables, hankies etc. I've got one of those Aeron chairs. It was my chair at work years ago and then through the company being bought out, remote working and bad record keeping it ended up being mine. The most important thing for me about a working area is that I can have all my stuff close by. Guitar on one side so I can take a music break from work. I usually have a painting on the go too as another rest from work hobby, so I've got a crappy easel on the other side. It's not the cleanest area, but it's the first time in my adult life that I've had a space just for myself.
