How do I lay out an executive office so it works for both daily work and client meetings?

The most functional layout for a dual-purpose executive office positions the main desk facing the entrance for authority and presence, with a 36–42 inch round meeting table tucked into a corner or positioned in front of the desk for client conversations, and a credenza behind the desk for storage and additional surface space. A round table is preferable to rectangular for small meetings — it eliminates the implied hierarchy of who sits at the head.
