Hi everyone. I recently purchased a 27" iMac which I have mounted on my wall in the bedroom. Its a great place for it since I can watch TV, Movies in bed or play games, check/ respond to emails in a comfortable setting at the low profile IKEA desk that sort of sits under it. Its notably terrible however for long term work, the space is naturally cramped and wouldn't accommodate a full desk chair- since the desk is low profile the only thing it will fit is a keyboard which is horror for my wrists.
I am looking for advice- On the precipice of returning to school for my masters, I am brainstorming ideas that of course dont include the moving of or purchase of a new mac- but rather expanding its use to a different room (an office I want to set up since my roommate is moving out, shares a wall with where the Mac is mounted) in one of the two following ways:
Are either of these even practical, is there something I am not considering, what would you do?

- Using AppleTV to mirror the display of the mac to a TV and simply using my bluetooth keyboard / mouse to work at as if the computer were there (does Airplay even support this, would degrade workflow with possible lag?)
- Mirroring the display via cables (would degrade 5k resolution to 1080p, correct me if im wrong)
Are either of these even practical, is there something I am not considering, what would you do?
