Create A Dream Home Office Without The Price Of A Designer

Hopefully you have your gorgeous executive desk picked out and ready to go, now you might be wondering how to create a perfect space to compliment it. Not to worry. We’ve found the top 4 designer tips to create a dream home office that is comfortable and stylish!

Where to place your black executive desk

According to feng shui you should have your desk placed so your back is to the wall and that you aren’t in the direct line of the doorway. This is what’s referred to as the commanding position. Perfect for you! This is believed to increase your energy level.

Depending on your office layout you can place your desk directly in front of a window for plenty of natural light. You can place your desk so you’re either looking out the window, or your back is to the window. That way you’ll get plenty of natural light shining in on your monitor and desktop.

If you are on video calls often, take into consideration what people on the call will be looking at besides you. You may prefer placing your desk so your back is against a wall rather than a window so there aren’t any people or animals moving around in the background.

Chairs

Depending on what you do, and whether or not you have office visitors very often, you may want to consider adding supplemental seating. I personally enjoy having a recliner in my office so I can work on my laptop in a more comfortable position. But, if you have clients, or kids, that pop in occasionally, provide them with a place to sit. Also, make sure that whatever chairs you have in your office, are ergonomic.

Storage

Bookshelves or filing cabinets are a necessary addition to any home office. As my mom used to say, “A place for everything and everything in it’s place”. Having enough storage keeps clutter and chaos at bay… at least a little bit!

Good Light

Plenty of light is important in any office especially if you spend a lot of time on your computer. Eye strain is a real issue and poor lighting can compound it. Desk lamps, overhead lights and natural light can all be layered to provide the perfect lighting.

The Best Black Executive Desk Review – The Bottom Line

Ok, that’s it. We found 4 desks that are gorgeous and perfect for any executive. Our review includes both modern and more traditional design, so something for most everyone. Each desk is very large, made of wood, and very heavy. They are all stunning in their own way so it’s up to you which style will fit best in your office and with your current decor.

Each desk is manufactured by reputable companies and should last for years. There are some differences in not only looks but functionality well. The biggest different among the desks we reviewed is that one of them, the Zuri Furniture Ford Executive Modern Adjustable Desk, is adjustable so you can use it when standing or sitting.

I’m sure that whatever desk you choose your productivity will skyrocket! Well, maybe not, you might spend a little too much time admiring your new office! Enjoy.
