Desk setup ideas

Twin Arch laptop stand, Grove headphone stand, Wiggle organiser and a lit Nest table lamp on a tidy wooden desk

A good desk setup is mostly about getting things off the desk surface: the laptop up, the headphones on a stand, the pens in one place and the small things in a tray. This guide builds one desk, piece by piece.

Start with whatever is cluttering yours most, then add the rest when you need it. Every price below is the live price on our store, and anything that sells out drops off this page automatically.

  • Two slots hold a laptop and a tablet upright on their edges, which clears room on a small desk.

  • One straight slot for a closed laptop, which rests at a slight lean. Good when you work on a monitor.

  • A curved stand with a gently dished saddle that keeps over-ear headphones off the desk.

  • Holds a tablet in landscape about 12 cm above the desk, as a second screen for notes or calls.

  • A compact phone stand that keeps your screen up and in view while you work.

  • A wavy organiser about 19 cm wide for pens, stationery and the cables that end up loose.

  • One tall ribbed organiser for pens, scissors and rulers, about 15 cm wide.

  • Two upright pen channels and a front pocket for sticky notes or a phone.

  • A cheerful desk holder with one deep, round opening for pens, pencils or brushes.

  • A long grooved tray with a round bowl that slides along it, for clips, earbuds and a watch.

  • A small table lamp, about 24 cm tall, that gives a desk a warm light in the evening.

  • A 10 cm cube planter for one small desk plant.
