    Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

    Hi! I’m Kuba Flizikowski. I would like to introduce myself and share a little of my world with you.

    I’m a student at a high school N°6 in Bydgoszcz, Poland, the city where I was born and live now.

    I like to describe myself as someone who is interested and involved in computer graphics — whether it’s vector/raster graphics, 3D or even movie editing. All of these things are my passion and hobby.

    My big adventure with computers and video games began at six when I borrowed my mom’s laptop for the first time. I played Minecraft all day long, marvelling at the secrets of computer science.

    As a kid, I was also fascinated by my dad’s work. He was a telematics engineer, so was always into anything to do with computers.

    The passion, as you can see, has stayed with me, and is slowly turning into something more serious. I have a lot of other interests as well though, like astronomy or cars.

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank my lovely girlfriend, Agata, for always being there for me and supporting me.

    She and my parents have been pushing me forward my whole life, and I don’t think I would be where I am today without them.

    I love them dearly.

    My workspace is the fulfilment of a longtime dream of mine.

    Ever since I can remember, I wanted to have a workstation of my own where I could spend long hours studying, creating, and playing games.

    The obstacles were always money and space, or rather the lack of them.

    Once we’ve moved into a bigger house, I knew it was time to start making my dream come true.

    That’s when I began saving up. To earn some money, I also worked as a temp.

    In March 2021, I created the first version of my desk setup.

    In retrospect, I can see it wasn’t really complete, but it gave me joy and satisfaction regardless.

    The second version, the current one, is perfect for me.

    Size-wise, the 215×75×3 cm tabletop is ideal.

    Two MALM drawers from IKEA hold my tabletop. They’re actually bedside tables, but don’t tell anyone!

    I put up the architectural concrete panels on the wall, and almost everyone who’s seen them stayed impressed.

    And I can’t disagree. Those panels are incredibly impressive in pictures and in person.

    They add a natural look to the workstation and give it a character I haven’t seen anywhere else.

    From the desk pad and keycaps to the LEGO shoe, everything in my workspace complements the vibe set by the concrete panels. Oh, did you know there are trainers made from LEGO? I think this is awesome.

    The defining element of Kuba’s workspace is concrete wall panels

    I’ve got two monitors. I use my main monitor for programming, editing photos and videos, creating graphics or even developing games. It’s nice to have that extra space. Plus, as you can see in the photos, my main monitor is hung pretty high, and I wanted to fill that space with something.

    The second monitor is slim, light, and looks like a thin notebook. I can use it as an additional screen for my phone. Overall, I recommend this monitor to anyone who wants a second screen that can be used in any location.
