how to choose a desk for your office

If we set up our own office and intend to furnish it tastefully but above all make it functional, we need to optimize the spaces. Above all, to be able to find the best solution to work comfortably. We are thus simplifying the various activities that we intend to carry out within it. But especially, if the work is concentrated on a desk, the choice of the latter must be carefully considered, due to the various fundamental assumptions that we are preparing to list below. So let’s see how to choose the desk for the office.

how to choose a desk for your office

Height

If our work requires a constant effort to access the computer or draw up documents, a customized desk is the most appropriate one. However, the advice is to check its height before buying it, as an adjustable chair may be insufficient if the desk is too low or vice versa if too high. This is important for posture. In fact, if the work is longer than 5 consecutive hours, the back could suffer substantial damage over time.

Surface

When we decide to buy a desk, it is a good idea to choose one with a large enough surface to place your computer monitor, telephone, keyboard and mouse. Not counting pen holders, everyday books, letter writing paper, and other stationery tools. A desk for the office must be very functional, so it is advisable to place the choice on the type just described. And possibly with a series of side drawers, to avoid getting up and down to find what we need.

This model is therefore good for an office furnished in classic style, that is with wooden furniture. If instead, we opt for a modern, linear, transparent desk (in glass or plexiglass) and without drawers, then it is better to buy the modular ones. These are types of desks that, in addition to the supporting surface, have the same finishes as the drawer units with wheels. Excellent to store, from time to time depending on the need, below the support surface and possibly to be replaced with classic drawers.

Form

The office desk can also be larger and above all the different shapes. On the market, you can find very large ones, which can serve four employees or co-workers in a circular way with special divisions on the surface at the same time. Finally, if space is cramped or you intend to place it in a corner, the desk for the office most indicated is the one that is structured. Which allows to optimize the spaces and to be able to carry out work without necessarily changing the support surface. To complete the functionality of an office desk, it is advisable to install additional practical elements. Such as, for example, a removable shelf on which to place the computer keyboard when necessary. It must not be missing.

Safety

For the office desk, the ergonomic principles established by legislative decree 81/08 aimed at workplace safety must be respected. By facilitating the psychophysical well-being of workers with the most appropriate solutions, their productivity is consequently improved. First of all, the keyboard must be placed on the work table so that the forearms can be easily supported. Furthermore, it is necessary to use a work surface adjustable in height from 68 to 82 centimeters, the surface of which must be clear and without reflections. Finally, the correct distance between the computer screen and the operator must be between 50 and 80 centimeters.

Never forget:

The desk must be equipped with all the essential accessories for carrying out a good job. Such as for example, the object holders in which to insert scissors, staple removers, staplers, and whatever else is necessary. To eliminate the annoying tangling of electrical cables, use cable ducts.
