(I have worked at home my whole career, so if this seems extravagant consider it is nearly my only business expense. :)

I have a 98” TV on the wall, with two 55 inch TVs in portrait orientation on each side, tilted 45 degrees toward me.

It turns out, the long dimension of the 55” screens equals the short dimension of a 98” screen. So all three screens have the same height.

Having huge screens on the wall means I don’t need my reading glasses, can demo easily, can look at my screen while walking around the room and thinking.

It keeps my desk clear of clutter, cables etc. Wireless keyboard, track pad, mouse & headphones.

Furniture is minimized with a small desk and no screen stands.

Clutter and crowding silently sap my productivity.

I use the two side screens to constantly show my todo’s & reminders, and messages that need responses, respectively. Otherwise for me, out of sight is out of mind.

The TVs are mounted low, only 18 inches from the floor, for a comfortable seated viewing angle. also this leaves room for motivational, decorative art over the screens.



This sounds like a great 'artificial window' setup

Can you show us a photo of your setup please? Very intrigued


Sounds fascinating. Do you have a picture of the setup?
