Furnishing an Executive Office

Furnishing an executive office should be done with care and take a number of different factors into account when choosing the right desk set. Some things to avoid are desks that are cheap, have a small or no warranty, failing to buy enough or too much desk and not buying enough storage for paperwork. To avoid these obstacles it is important to work with a professional who has experience office layouts and floor plans. These professionals should be able to provide you with 2D and 3D floor plans as well as the flexibility to work with the client to insure adequate storage.

Most executives will want a U Shaped desk. These desks are large and offer a lot of space for paperwork as well as room for meeting with staff and clients. The meeting space at the end of the reception desk should have at least an additional 3 FT of length beyond the total length of the desk in order to place 2 guest chairs for meeting. Some executive offices might also have round meeting tables and additional storage including lateral filing cabinets and bookcases.

Nice touches that you can add to an executive office include task lights, overhead hutch with a tack board, paper flows, a sit-stand electronic height adjustable bridge and a comfortable ergonomic chair that can work as an accent piece to the room but also give the executive ergonomic adjustments for long days at work.

Executive desks come in a number of different shapes and sizes but most commonly a u shaped executive desk will be installed into the space. These offer more luxury than an l shape desk, which may look more like a lower budget desk or a straight desk that only offers meeting space where you would most commonly put all of your paper work.

When furnishing an executive office always be sure to give the space a finished feel with a lot of storage. A space lacking adequate storage and organization will suffer with desk clutter which can put off potential clients. Also, when making your purchase, a matching set that will look good with your carpet and wall colors is also very important to take into consideration.
