How should desk space be planned in a retail store's back office?

Retail store back offices are typically small (100–300 sq ft), multipurpose, and chaotic — they serve as office, break room, and storage all at once. The key space planning principles: make the office function first (designated desk area with proper chair, monitor, and storage), then fit the secondary functions around it. A 48"x24" desk tucked into one corner takes minimal space. Position the desk facing the door so the manager can see entries. Keep at least 36" of clear path through the space.
