What you get with this template
A white 11oz ceramic mug sits centered on a honey-oak desk, sharp and well-lit while the home office background softens into warm bokeh. You can make out a monitor, a pen holder, and open notebooks - enough context to read "workspace" at a glance without stealing focus from the mug.
Morning window light enters from the left, wrapping a soft highlight around the glossy surface and casting a gentle shadow on the wood grain below. The whole scene reads warm without being overexposed.
The usable print area covers the full front wrap - exactly where buyers look first.
Who uses this template

Freelancers use it for client presentations of branded office merchandise. The desk setting signals "professional daily use" without a word of copy.
