READ UPDATE FOR UPDATE

Hey guys,
so im going to be starting a project soon and i want to build a desk, however i am wanting to build my console and pc inside of it.

Below is the first draft of a model i have designed:

I need help!
The top section is the PC build section and below is my xbox console.
I haven't yet left spaces for extra fans (only ones on the side) or the icy box IB-864 front panel 3.5 inch usb and card reader hub and the fan controller.
My main concern is airflow and at the moment i don't really want to pay out for liquid cooling.
How many fans do i need?
How many intake fans to exhaust fans? Do i need exhaust fans or can i have enough gaps to air to escape?
Anything i may need to know or you are interested in please comment below! Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

UPDATE

So i have taken out a small section and moved to the back of the computer section and put button on top1
Some slight design adjustments aswell

That built in speaker...like I would honestly be beyond myself with that, would use that with my sub woofers and just blast music. Overall I do like the design that you made and what you're going for. I would definitely get a setup like this, would be even better if the desk was black. If this does work out for you, I might just need to get this done for me, would definitely save me space!

Why not try using the Corsair H100i or something similar for the CPU cooling? have it attach to the cut out side on the right off the desk? And maybe a few rear fans pushing in and extracting air? that should be the only cooling you need.

The xbox doesn't need much cooling either.
