Subham's workspace is tucked into a cozy cubicle near his living room.
After setting up the essentials like a TV, music system, and reading area, he had a bit of space left, so he built out a dedicated nook designed specifically for work. The cubicle not only helps him focus but also doubles as a quiet meeting room.
His entire setup, from the cubicle structure to the placement of his tools, is designed for him. He believes in building his environment to fit his needs, rather than adapting to what’s actually available.
