A Dark Themed Workspace: Inside the Inspirational Omnidesk Setup of @thericebucket

Our Omnidesk feature this week is Benjamin, an artist from Singapore. Known on Instagram as @thericebucket, you’ve probably seen a photo of his dark themed workspace if you are an avid follower of minimal desk setups and other workspace inspiration pages. Let’s have a look at how he does it.

It is a very cosy workspace

How do you build a space that feels warm and comfy? Using darker wall colours and wooden themed desks help to invoke feelings of elegance and mystery. Solid wood desks only provide exceptional durability and longevity, but they also add a timeless feel to any space.

Benjamin’s setup features the Omnidesk Pro, paired with the Pheasantwood table top from the Wildwood Collection. With its striking light coloured streaks running through the wood, it’s a perfect blend of light and dark timber for a balanced aesthetic that complements Benjamin’s wooden flooring.

A minimalist space designed for productivity.

On his desk, you can tell that everything is meticulously organized, with only essential items occupying the desk. By removing any potential distractions and simplifying the space, it helps to cultivate a sense of calm and clarity, allowing one to be fully immerse themselves in their work.

Pick accessories that match the vibe.

From the desk mat to the speakers and PC, everything on Benjamin’s desk looks carefully curated to deliver a very clean and minimalist look. Plants also help to add some colour and harmony to the workspace and it looks amazing.

Ultra-organised cable management

Now, even the prettiest setups is not complete without proper cable management. While we love our tech like the double monitor setup Benjamin’s rocking, a mess of tangled cables never looks good. The Omnidesk Cable Management Bar, Mounted Powerbar and Power Clamp are a cable management holy trinity.

An elegant solution to messy cables, they allow you to neatly stow away cables where they can’t be seen. Just make sure to plan out where your cables need to go, and you’ll be able to replicate this sleek setup in no time! Or, if you need a little help, check out our cable management guide!
