Intro:
I'm moving to a new apartment. I have no furniture for my battlestation. My day job is software development, side gig is electronics design. Have a desktop and a laptop which I will give specs on below. Will need to get an oscilloscope in the near future, and maybe a multimeter. My apartment is in Manhattan, so space is limited.
Problem:
I've been looking for office furniture. I need space for 2 monitors, my laptop stand, instrumentation, and a workspace for soldering and tinkering. I'm not sure if a keyboard pullout thing is necessary, but I feel like it would be useful to have one. I feel like the best choice would be to get two very basic desks that can be put together in an L shape, and maybe one of them can have a keyboard thing. I would like them to be very minimalist and sleek looking.
Use cases:
-coding
-gaming
-electronics design (software)
-electronics assembly and testing
-watching media/listening to music
-music production
