Bow-Front Desks — Expert Answer
Can I put a bow-front desk against a wall?
You can place a bow-front desk against a wall, but the curved front means you'll sit farther from the wall than with a straight desk, which reduces usable space behind you. The design works best when the bow faces outward into the room — ideally toward the office entrance — so the curve frames your workspace and presents a welcoming front to visitors. Placing the bow against the wall defeats the ergonomic and aesthetic purpose of the curve.
