How much floor space does a corner desk actually take up once it’s in a room?

A standard 60” × 60” corner desk occupies a 5′ × 5′ footprint along the walls, but you need to add 48–60” of open floor in front of the desk for your chair and the ability to move in and out comfortably. Plan a 10′ × 10′ zone total for a 60” corner desk setup with working clearance. Smaller 48” × 48” models work in a 9′ × 9′ zone. Don’t forget to account for any doors that swing into the room — they can conflict with the chair clearance zone if you’re not careful.
