I got it at Lowe's. It is Sherwin Williams Peppercorn HGSW1491. Just be warned that if you do not have a lot of lighting in your room it will make it really dark! With my LED soft box lights it looks good in there, but with just the light from the ceiling fan it is too dark!
My friend, i'm moving homes and wanted to new setup for my room. I got the same color walls even and im so happy seeing that you already figured for what colors to for and such. Im copying it all, thanks so much!
Love the setup. I’ve been looking to put my own together for a while now and TH-cam has been the place I’ve done most of my research. This video by far has been the most helpful. Simple to the point and well put together.
I'm currently looking into creating a place for my streaming/gaming setup. Your idea is really inspiring and I will be taking some of your ideas and putting it into my setup. Thank you for sharing! Your setup looks fantastic!
You rock! Thank you for breaking down the materials and placement of everything. Your desk is pretty much exactly what I was trying to understand how to create for myself.
just ordered all; the parts to make this desk. Its exactly what i've been trying to find so thanks! Only thing i did different was ordered shorted butcher block counter tops from home depot that I will stain. The 74" versions here were going to be too large for my spot, HD offered them in multiple sizes for comparable prices. Thanks again for the video.
ive never wanted to rip someone elses desk before until now... no shame you did an amazing job on that desk! And you probably saved me from making really bad design decisions! Thanks!
The explanations are really helpful for the decisions you made for the monitor mounts and the reason for 4 legs on one table side. It makes sense and helps us make thoughtful choices in our own builds. Thanks.
Here after seeing you break that linmon tabletop haha! Looks like an awesome setup! I am actually using two linmons for my L-desk setup right now but I’ll follow this video when I upgrade.
You look & sound like a GREAT father !!! wish you all the best with your family, please remember to enjoy every second with your loved ones, life is 2 brief for arguing and fighting, just love each other and enjoy life !!!
Man, I feel you. I have 2 spare rooms in my house, but one has to be a guest bedroom, so I'm going to turn the other into my workspace with kind of desk setup. Probably going to go for a horse-shoe shape around the room though. Plus side.. convinced the gf it's a good idea, so that's the hard part done. Now just to wait for lockdown to end lmao.
@@ChrisWilmshurst At least you're making good use of the space! You should treat yourself to one of these though, they're gorgeous :D Just convince your partner that it will also make the whole aesthetic of the lounge nicer and you're golden ;) Good luck, friend!

Sweet setup my guy! This is the exact desk layout I’m going for but I’m going to make my workbench a sit/standing desk for when I’m printing custom apparel. Thank you for sharing this with us!
Love this build. It looks clean and professional. I just want to know how you secured the desk top to the desk risers(if you secured them at all). I would assume weight would be enough, but I'd want to somehow connect the top of the desk to the bottom of those risers.
I've seen a lot of videos of this setup so I'm happy that you made a video of how you made the setup because not many people show how they made the desk and I want to get something like this too
Hey Matt you inspired me for my office thank you! Do you have the weblink on where you purchased the small stand off furniture legs you purchased? Would appreciate the help.
So I couldn't immediately find standoffs with the full black finish but these look roughly the same. www.amazon.com/BQLZR-Stainless-Kitchen-Adjustable-Furniture/dp/B00KQH8HMU/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=Stainless+Steel+Furniture+Legs&qid=1588101147&s=hi&sr=1-2
I copied your desk, with some minor modifications to fit my space, and I just wanna say thanks for sharing. The desk is better than anything I could've bought already made.
I am going to renovate my room and this helped a lot! I will probably use the karlby counter top and the wall panels. I really appreciate the fact that you show the items you use and you also give a cheaper alternative for people that try to stay on a budget. Keep it up! Close to 10K
Awesome setup man. Thanks for the inspiration. Thinking about getting the same Karlby with 1 Alex drawer on the left side, and 1 leg on the right (Never going to use that much space with 2 Alex drawers). The wall on the right side will have the same foam packs.
That looks great. I was looking for computer desks (all in one) for a while, but they had all their pros/cons, and I wasn't sure... This looks very clean and sturdy. Thanks for the inspiration.
Keep us updated ! And continue to produce content even if you run into difficulties ! Good luck and thank you for getting us untertained, love from France xoxo
They are grey, and Ikea calls them grey. There are some new black ones that they call “black-brown” and they have a wood grain to them, not just smooth like the ones I have.
Dang, that is an amazing desk setup. Just a tip for anyone, if you add a bit of dish soap to your drill bit before drilling through the metal, your bit will last longer! Thanks for the video. How is it holding up today?
I am building a setup and I love yours it is the style I want I was wondering about the grey Alex Drawer’s because your link doesn’t work and I went to the website and I could not find the grey version
you can upgrade things from a laptop just like a pc. You can get an external monitor for it and even find a way to make it run faster when its in desktop mode
I just built this setup at home, and I must say it was A LOT higher than I thought it would be, but I’m happy with it and it does the job, I also need to get those metal pipe mounts because I currently don’t have quite enough mouse space
If you don't have the correct drill bit, you can cut the screw driver handle off. Then use the bit in the drill chuck. Works good as the screw driver shafts are usually longer than the the small bit for drivers and drills. Great video by the way..
In my experience the adhesive velcro tabs work really well and dont pull paint or do anything like that. and if you want to rearage the patern they are just velcro on one side so you can move them around freely..
This was literally the way I was thinking of in my head so I just thought to look it up on yt to see if someone had the same thing just so I could see if it would look nice and holy shit you’ve absolutely smashed this desk set up definitely doing it like that now thanks for the awesome video man
I’d like to know the color code and brand of the paint! Looks really clean.
I got it at Lowe's. It is Sherwin Williams Peppercorn HGSW1491. Just be warned that if you do not have a lot of lighting in your room it will make it really dark! With my LED soft box lights it looks good in there, but with just the light from the ceiling fan it is too dark!
@@MattieKB we have the same color paint lol, i painted my room this color like 2 months ago now. its a super nice gray
HealhoeGaming haha! XD we are paint brothers!
I thought the exact same thing! And the wall texture looks great with it too
How did you do the texture?
My friend, i'm moving homes and wanted to new setup for my room. I got the same color walls even and im so happy seeing that you already figured for what colors to for and such. Im copying it all, thanks so much!
I was literally just looking online for a corner desk and this video has just given me a great solution..

This inspired me to build my pc/ home phone repair shop set up thank you so much for the inspiration
You rock! Thank you for breaking down the materials and placement of everything. Your desk is pretty much exactly what I was trying to understand how to create for myself.
The Black/Grey/Blue colour scheme is awesome. Desk is awesome. Awesome job.
did you add any padding to the "feet" for the countertop not sliding? im worried that mine would slide since it's plastic and not rubber lol
Not even a gamer. Son is but not me. I do however have to tell you, I'm impressed.Looks great!
actually my favorite setup i’ve seen so far!

Tf are you doing here xD
this is a legit randomfrankp replica, the Alex drawers desk is everywhere, if you haven't seen it before than uv been living under a rock
@@johntitor1054 nope just been living at the warehouse with overtime. Replica or not, im grateful for coming across it nonetheless.
@@insomnizvk k, you should check out randomfrank p's room tour project vids, he shows off awesome setups there, you can get a lot of ideas.
What I like about this situation is that it’s modular, you can start cheap and upgrade to drawers or adjustable legs.
The explanations are really helpful for the decisions you made for the monitor mounts and the reason for 4 legs on one table side. It makes sense and helps us make thoughtful choices in our own builds. Thanks.
Glad it helped!
Those gray Alex Drawers look really nice. Good work!
This utuber is the only monotone voice I can listen to and not get bored, some how
Clean setup i wouldn't change anything about the colors I love the gray and black with that table top
Here after seeing you break that linmon tabletop haha! Looks like an awesome setup! I am actually using two linmons for my L-desk setup right now but I’ll follow this video when I upgrade.
What color of the drawer
great to see someone not using white furniture / walls for a change and it looks great!
You look & sound like a GREAT father !!! wish you all the best with your family, please remember to enjoy every second with your loved ones, life is 2 brief for arguing and fighting, just love each other and enjoy life !!!
Absolutely LOVED THIS SET UP! One question, did you screw the worktop down or not? If not does it move around when you lean on it?
I had this same question
Thanks for the video and for listing all the parts in the comment. Awesome setup.
I'm late but this gave me ideas for my setup revamp, will defiantly do that to my Vivo monitor arm too
The before and after transition was such a huge difference 😎
Every time I see a Karlby worktop I want one. Thankfully the isolation in the UK is stopping me from spending money! haha
Man, I feel you.
I have 2 spare rooms in my house, but one has to be a guest bedroom, so I'm going to turn the other into my workspace with kind of desk setup. Probably going to go for a horse-shoe shape around the room though.

Love the color of the walls....it really ties the room together....very nice job, brother!
You did a great job with this. I'm doing a similar setup in my apartment... Thanks Matt
Looks good man. I especially like the infamous "casting couch"
Lol! that’s what everyone says!
I really like the shots where you use your hands to point and frame objects.
Really nice setup, just not a fan of the blue colors.

agreed, it is a warm setup and would fit better with a warmer rgb color scheme like orange or somthing
Same, I think that chair is ugly 😬 But to each his own!

Love the new set up. Where did u get the third set of drawers with the filing drawer? Is that an Alex drawer too? Link?
Yep it is a different variation of the alex drawer

Have you found out a solution?
I was thinking the same. Would be a shame to accidentally knock it. Could put some sort of adhesive on top of each one maybe?
You are such a nice and humble person. Good video.
yeah ı buy a new mouse, its upgrade for me :(
Same
lucky
Dang I feel bad for u :( 😭😭
This whole month I came from a broke desk to a better one with a folding ugly chair into a gaming chair with a green screen
Baby steps dawg.
We'll make it one day lol
Looks slick AF. Very nice.
the t pins are genius thank you for sharing that
what was the thing he put on the wall called?
@@KKRobocop He put acoustic foam
Why don’t you just go back in the video and watch it
then your wall is so soft you can put the t pin easily?
Thank you bro, I know I’m late but this the desk I want appreciate you🙏
Thanks bro
0:21 "piece by piece through all of my setup " - this part is rapped perfectly xDDD
I've seen a lot of videos of this setup so I'm happy that you made a video of how you made the setup because not many people show how they made the desk and I want to get something like this too
Awesome set up bro, I'm curious to know what height your desk sits at with the 2" furniture risers?
love how simple black is

I had the same spark of Idea with the desks! Thanks to you I can implement your way of doing it into my upcoming setup. Thanks mate! :)
Tested it in the closet.......brilliant!
LOVE this setup. Not extremely familiar with LED strips like that. Do they each have their own remote or can you control multiple off the same remote?
i love that you madew this video because this is exactly what i'm planning for my gaming station! thank you!
this is actually my favorite setup ive ever seen! good job!
This set up is pretty good but there’s way more better set ups than this :)

I really dig the countertops as a desk and the blue lights. Very clean! Nice work.
If the color grey could sponsor people, this guy would make millions.
Lol dude 😂
love your desk and the lumiy lamp is so brightttttttt
Your setup is awesome man! I want to do the same. By chance do you know the dimensions of that room??

Please turn the cushion on the chair right side up. Thank you.

I know im late but nice work. I plan to do the same thing this weekend but using the 2 inch taller lifts.
I’ve watched all your videos about your setup
Nice!
This is actually a great setup because I remember I have seen this video before you guys are doing amazing.. Keep it up.
You should go over the pins on the wall with a black feltip where the blocks are black so they don't stand out as much, cheap hack ;)
chansu your a cheap skate font do that
@@platinumuk690 And you're like 13 :)
What I’m 10
Thanks Matt! i'm going to ikea to buy the pieces to put the same desk together. very helpful video:D
Are the alex drawers black-brown or gray? I really love that color and i’m thinking about getting it
They are grey, and Ikea calls them grey. There are some new black ones that they call “black-brown” and they have a wood grain to them, not just smooth like the ones I have.
Matt's Tech & Vlogs Ok thank you
Beautiful make over nice monitors. Colors look cool pc has nice lighting. Gaming chair looks great couch 🛋 is a nice touch too. 🖥😊
You're really underrated my dude. This setup is dope and the vid was really high quality!👍🤙
Ok. Sold. Now I have my new setup... wow. This is amazing. This is exactly what I was thinking of doing, but couldn't quite visualize it. Awesome job.
Damn I’m really liking ur brand new setup it’s crazy how much it has changed gives me hope great video
i like the family team work 👏
Dude it looks amazing, you have really good taste. I like the gold screws, just say they're titanium lol
It turned out very nicely !
Did you have to cut any of the desks to size or was the desk length perfect between the wall and the window?
I was lucky and it fit perfect!
Dang, that is an amazing desk setup. Just a tip for anyone, if you add a bit of dish soap to your drill bit before drilling through the metal, your bit will last longer! Thanks for the video. How is it holding up today?
I have reconfigured my room since this video, but the desk and drawers have all been holding up nicely!
i think ive found my dream setup
Thank you so much !!! Helped a lot with my gaming setup.
I am building a setup and I love yours it is the style I want I was wondering about the grey Alex Drawer’s because your link doesn’t work and I went to the website and I could not find the grey version
They discontinued that exact color. So if you go on Ikeas website and look up Alex drawers, you will find what colors they currently sell.
Ok thank you so much
have fun putting those ikea drawers together...
😭and I'm still working on my old laptop waiting to get some money to build a pc that is gonna make my work easier
What is your work, some stuff will be fine on a laptop, other stuff like coding won't really work smoothly on a laptop
you can upgrade things from a laptop just like a pc. You can get an external monitor for it and even find a way to make it run faster when its in desktop mode
and i the same
If you smoke or drink etc that could be a good way to save a lot of money
that sucks, stop spending all of your money on roblox and mc donalds.
i could stay in that room forever, well done
what camera do you use for your videos?
Nick Riecher A Canon G7X on old videos, and a Canon m50 with a 11mm lens in new videos.
i love it.. thanks for sharing!
Matt: Let's upgrade my setup
Me: $1/$2000 for my gaming gear
Nice.
I just built this setup at home, and I must say it was A LOT higher than I thought it would be, but I’m happy with it and it does the job, I also need to get those metal pipe mounts because I currently don’t have quite enough mouse space

Great video by the way..
I don't know who this guy is, but this room looks like complete rip-off of JayzTwoCents recent gaming room update :)
Dmitry Krainyk was searching through the comments, to see if someone already posted this.... I’d call it heavily inspired 😅
Thank god, someone said it.
same was looking through the comments to find this the only reason i clicked on the video is because it looked so much like jayztwocents new setup
I’m Really inspired . Looks good and comfy
Just a thought: Light strips on the ceilings of the drawers would look killer!
In my experience the adhesive velcro tabs work really well and dont pull paint or do anything like that. and if you want to rearage the patern they are just velcro on one side so you can move them around freely..
Cool video. Straightforward and honest. Can't stand the highly edited videos with cheap hacks that don't really work irl.
Thanks for sharing your project and i like it very much.
Sick! Im probably getting the same desk :)
Same :)
