Best Desk Setup for Designers: Dual Arm, Clean Layout

For designers, the desk isn't just where work happens—it's where ideas are born, refined, and delivered. Whether you're editing videos, designing user interfaces, or illustrating digital art,a well-aligned, clutter-free dual-screen setupmakes your workflow faster and your body more comfortable. Here's howlingshang’s dual monitor armshelp creative professionals build better workstations.

Screen Alignment That Supports Flow

Creative tasks demandprecise screen control. Many designers switch constantly between software like:

• Figma + Adobe XDfor UI/UX prototyping

• Photoshop + Illustratorfor digital illustration

• After Effects + Premiere Profor motion design and video editing

Dual monitor arms allow you to align both screens evenly—no more tilting your head between mismatched displays. With full rotation, height adjustment, and tilt, you can build a fluid, ergonomic visual flow across your entire desk.

Case: Motion Designer in a Compact Home Studio

Ella, a freelance motion designer based in Singapore, splits her screen time between editing timelines and rendering previews. Before using dual arms, she stacked her second monitor on a box—awkward, unstable, and ugly.

After switching to a lingshang dual monitor arm:

• She aligned both 27” screens at eye level

• Freed up space for adrawing tabletanddesk mic

• Noted lessneck tightnessafter 8+ hour workdays

Now, her setup is studio-grade—without the cost or space of a traditional editing bay.

Declutter to Focus

Designers often deal with:

• Reference sketches

• External drives and tablets

• Styluses, camera gear, sticky notes...

Without vertical lift, monitors eat up valuable desk real estate. By raising your screens, lingshang arms make room for tools that actually support creativity. Many models includebuilt-in cable management, so power and HDMI cords don’t get tangled under your sketchpad.
