"I can be creative because everything is organized. Structure is really important to me when I work."
Name: Marvin Wildhage
Location: Berlin, Germany
Profession: Journalist & Web Video Producer
As a journalist and web video producer, Marvin works on projects that require concentration and in-depth research. For that his workplace is a supportive factor that provides structure and sharpens his focus on the important things.
Organization that Leaves Room for Creativity
For Marvin, an organized workplace is the basis for creative work. When everything has its place, his mind is free to concentrate on the task at hand without constantly having to rearrange things or search for items.
The Setup Cockpit desk shelf is a central element of his desk. It creates an additional level and more space without cluttering up the workspace. Thanks to the modular add-ons, his laptop, cell phone and all daily essentials are always within reach, while his desk remains organized and tidy.
In everyday life, it is exactly this organization that makes all the difference: "I can be creative because everything is organized. Structure is really important to me when I work."

Focus for Investigative Projects
Marvin most enjoys working on his YouTube projects, especially formats where he "sneaks in" and highlights topics that often go unnoticed. He finds inspiration in journalists who test boundaries and ask uncomfortable questions.
To stay focused, Marvin relies on music. It helps him immerse himself in projects and get into a steady work rhythm, especially during intensive research or writing phases.
A Workspace that Adapts
A typical day starts off straightforwardly for Marvin: get up, drink coffee, read the news. Then it's straight to work.
His setup is not a place that constantly demands attention, but rather one that provides support in his daily tasks. With the modularity of the Setup Cockpit, he has created a clear structure to optimize his workflow entirely according to his needs.
Values Instead of Trendy Content
What Marvin appreciates most about his jobs the opportunity to initiate socially relevant debates and to address uncomfortable issues. Whether it's a doctorate obtained by deception, a German Cross of Merit, or fake products for influencers, Marvin's work challenges established systems, exposing security gaps and social dysfunctions. These values are also reflected in his setup: honest, refined, and highly functional.
