Build Log

This idea I have had for years, I want to build a custom desk 100% from scratch with everything I could possibly want built into the desk.
My ideas are always changing and heres what I could come with for the "perfect desk"

The main desk frame would be made out of Hexagons with a gap inbetween them with a ring of LED's that go around them and silicon in the gaps for the LED's to shine through almost like this but a bit darker wood:

I would also want Hiden cable managment on the bottom on the desk to try and hide as many cables as I can. From looking around online, I have not found any perfect out of the box solutions that work, but one that I found that has potential is carving cutouts on the bottom for the wires and some sort of cover or clips so the wires dont fall out. but this might add a lot of unwanted thickness to the table to make sure it still can support the weight.
I would also want built in power. I have not figured out what exactly I want but what I have in mind is 2-4 normal 3 prong plugs and at leat 1 usb-c and at least 1 usb-b plug built into the desk and be flush with the rest of the desk.
I would also want to have some sort of shelf under the monitors to store my little desk accessories I like to keep on my desk. It can be little fidgets all the way to my xbox remote and charger.
speaking of my monitors, I would want a built in stand for them that can hold 2 and or 3 monitors but is as hidden away as possible. I dont want to be able to see the arms, only the post.
I have also seen online peg boards and aluminum extrusion to hold things. The peg boards will hold all of my tools I might need for the protoyping and electronics. the aluminum extrusion will hold overhead lights and or a microphone or something along the lines of that. I have something like this in my head, just the top section not the bottom.
