My favorite item in my workspace is my gaming pc. Some people have project cars, I have project computers that I build my desks around. I don’t play games much anymore but building computers has been a long-time hobby of mine. It's a custom mini-ITX build with a custom liquid cooling loop and it took ages to secure the right parts during the pandemic.

The best way to spark creativity is to go and experience something different that gives you a context shift. For me, I have a park I like to take walks through. I also find movies, games, and books inspiring. If creativity is connecting dots, the more things you see from different angles the more dots you can connect.

I don’t optimize for this. I view my work as an extension of my life, I’m very happy with the things I do which is why I’ve dedicated such a significant portion of my living space to it. This doesn’t mean every day is all work, it just means it’s a part of my life; not some part that I compartmentalize. My gaming computer and work computer are both plugged into the same monitor after all. :)
