Wupper desk from Hoeffner
Navaris Monitor stand from Amazon
Quntis Monitor bar lamp (I added this later, love it) from Amazon

Thrift store lamps picked up from weekend markets in Berlin
A marble magnet from Kos, Greece that reminds me of a Hippocrates quote "Anything exaggerated is contrary to nature"

Mood Makers

I like looking at them when I am zoned out or seeking creativity:

My Rose road bike and Jetblack trainer
My small but mighty guitar pedals (NUX, MXR Fullbore metal, TC Electronic Ditto Looper)
A red leather test cricket ball (I use it to rubber duck or be stupid and break things in the house)
Vic Firth drumstick that I caught at a live Meshuggah concert
