Desk Space Planning — Expert Answer

How can vertical space above desks be better utilized in office space planning?

Vertical space above desk surfaces is often underutilized in office space plans. Options for maximizing it: wall-mounted shelving above the desk for reference materials and supplies; hutch units that rise from the desk surface to within 12"–18" of the ceiling; pegboard systems for organizing supplies and tools; floating wall cabinets above the desk at accessible heights; and wall-mounted monitor arms that free the desk surface. Going vertical reduces the desk footprint needed per person, which is one of the most impactful ways to reduce total office square footage requirements.
