Optimizing my home one 20-gram plastic shim at a time. Itβs not a 'failed influencer career,' itβs a high-scale data project with a lot of stringing.β¦
5 years of homeownership means admitting your past self was a bit clueless. π
Exhibit A: Planning a proper workstation because "I'll just work from the dining table" was a lie that expired years ago.
Exhibit B: Paying for extra electrical points now. Itβs the most boring but essential upgrade, all because I want a cozy lamp and a vinyl record player setup behind the sofa. Don't skimp on sockets, guys. ποΈποΈ
The Workspace Rebuild: Tearing it all down to build a proper dual-zone setup. π¨
Zone 1: The Grind. A permanent, dedicated desk for the day job and coding projects. Because moving my desk every single time I need to use the monitor is a daily hassle I am officially done with. π»β
Zone 2: The Craft. A dedicated space for 3D printing and handcrafting dioramas. Hands-on creativity needs actual room to breathe (and get messy). π€π¨
My house is very wood-heavy right now, so I'm bringing in some stainless steel industrial contrast to spice things up.
First up, a massive living room rug because the floor currently has zero depth or separation. Next, a magnetic panel from mnetic.co so I can display gear without drilling holes (and yes, I will absolutely be 3D printing custom magnetic mounts for it).
For the walkway, a Muji stainless steel shelf to catch everyday clutter and reusable bags. And finally, that Teenage Engineering stainless steel table, because it is entirely unnecessary but looks so ridiculously cool I can't stop thinking about it. πΈ
Mnetic.co Magnetic Panel: The ultimate solution for my screenprints. I have a deep, personal hatred for drilling holes into my walls, and this gives me the perfect, flexible setup to swap out prints on the fly. Bonus: I can 3D print custom magnetic holders for it. π οΈβ¨
