How high should the desk be? It’s not easy to be a worker, the desk design should be reasonable!
Modern people basically have a desk in their home. When they are busy at work, they can work overtime at home with a desk, and they can play games on the desk to relax themselves in their spare time. "Taking a break from the busy schedule and combining work and rest" is a normal lifestyle for contemporary people. Whether it is working overtime or playing games, a comfortable desk can make life more comfortable and convenient. Today I will talk about the topic of desk design. If you are planning to arrange a desk at home, you may wish to refer to it!
The standard height of a desk is 75-80cm, which can be determined according to the user's height. Generally, when sitting on the chair and typing on the keyboard, the hands are flush with the table surface.
▲The person sits on a stool with his elbows at the height of the desk.
The depth of the table top is 55-60cm. If it is too shallow, it will be difficult to place the mouse and keyboard. The length is recommended to be more than 1.1 meters depending on the size of the space.
▲The table depth is 55-60cm.
The seat height is about 45cm, which is the standard seat height and also the comfortable height for most people when sitting down.
▲The height of the table and chair is about 45cm.
Finally, the size of the bookcase can be used as a reference based on the size of A4 paper (210mm*297mm) - the depth is 25-30cm and the height of the bookcase is 30-40cm. This size can accommodate most books.
▲The size of the bookshelf can refer to the size of A4 paper: 210mm*297mm.
① No chassis space under the table
Some families really pay attention to storage design. For example, they like to install a computer case on the left side of the desk. If the table is not wide, adding a computer case under the desk will make the space for people to put their feet very narrow. It is better to use a laptop at home or buy a small case and put it directly on the table.
▲Add a computer case or safe under the desk, so there will be no space left for your feet.
② No drawers under the countertop
Adding a row of drawers under the desk top is also a common form of many desk designs. It seems that adding a row of drawers under the desk top provides practical storage.
▲Drawers under the countertop are not recommended either.
In fact, the desk is 75cm, minus the 45cm stool, leaving 30cm of space. If you install a drawer (if it is) 20cm, the height for your feet under the desk will only be 10cm. You can put your feet in, but if you want to cross your legs after working for a long time, it may not be so natural.
▲If you like to cross your legs, it would be more comfortable if there is space under the table.
③ Seat with armrests
If you use the mouse frequently, such as browsing the web or using design software, your arms will get tired easily if you use your hands for a long time.
▲The chair has no armrests, so your hands are left hanging in the air, which will be very tiring after a long time.
Choose a chair with armrests so that you can rest your elbows when using the mouse. This will make it more comfortable when working or playing games for long periods of time.
▲The chair has armrests, and you can put your elbows on the armrests to work more comfortably.
A reasonably designed and comfortable desk can provide us with a comfortable and convenient experience when working overtime, playing games or reading. If you often use a desk at home, remember to refer to the key points I summarized above - the desk height is 75-80cm , the table depth is 55-60cm , the seat height is about 45cm , the bookcase depth is 25-30cm and the height is 30-40cm ; then in order to make the desk more comfortable to use, there should be no computer chassis or drawers under the table, and it is recommended to choose a seat with armrests.
