I moved apartments last month and didn't bring over a proper desk. I alternate between an armchair with a laptop on an Ikea Dave table and standing next to cheap standing shelf with the monitor on one shelf and the keyboard on another. I've been mostly sitting in the armchair since I tend to use my home setup when I'm tired after work.

I sometimes work in the armchair and then stand up to watch TV, since TV watching doesn't take up mental energy like working does, and extra mental energy is useful for sticking with the standing pose.

For the past 14 months my desk has been a bookshelf and my chair has been a bed. Sometimes my bed is also a desk, and my bookshelf is also a bookshelf.

I would recommend this setup for people who want to get outside more.
