Is an L-shaped desk worth the space it takes up in a home office?

It's worth it if you work with multiple monitors, need dedicated space for a secondary task, or spend 6+ hours daily at your desk — the extra surface area meaningfully reduces the friction of switching between tasks. It's not worth it if you can't maintain 36" of clearance on the open sides, which makes the space feel cramped. Measure first: if a 60"x48" configuration fits with proper clearances, the answer is almost certainly yes.
