A beginners guide to home office desk styles FI

As more companies offer their workers the opportunity to work from home, many are tasked with figuring out how to set up a home office space. 

This is why taking time to consider the kind of work from home desk option best fitting your work style is crucial, so your work environment is conducive for optimal productivity. 


Why do you need a good desk for your home office?

Working from home can feel a bit hectic at times, so finding a desk to help organize your office supplies and comfortably fit within your space helps to cut down on the extra “noise." 

Some work desks are large enough to fit two computer monitors, printers and other devices. Others have storage space for paperwork and smaller items. Taking your work needs into consideration, you can narrow down your search for the desk best fitting your style. 


Standing desks

A stand-up desk, also known as a standing desk, allows its user to stand as they work. Studies have shown there are remarkable benefits to using a standing desk. These benefits include: 


  • Reduced back pain associated with sitting for a long time.
  • Increased energy levels. 
  • Positive boost in mood. 
  • May aid in lowering blood pressure after eating lunch. 

Smart desks

If you’re searching for a well-balanced desk experience, consider purchasing a smart desk. Many big name tech companies have incorporated smart desks into the workplace to improve the environment for their employees. 

Smart desks can monitor how long you’ve been sitting for, suggest times to stand up and then times to sit back down. A smart office desk is usually adjustable and can be moved from a sitting position desk to a standing desk with ease. 

Your home office is integrated with your personal space, so it’s crucial to make sure your home office desk provides comfort for a positive work environment.
