L-Shaped Desks — Expert Answer

What size L-shaped desk fits well in a 10x12 office without feeling cramped?

A 60-inch main surface paired with a 48-inch return fits comfortably in a 10-by-12-foot room when positioned in a corner, leaving adequate clearance for chair movement and a path around the desk. Anything in the 72-by-72-inch range will feel tight in this size room. One practical check before ordering: measure your doorway — most commercial L-desks ship as flat-pack components that assemble in the room, but some 72-inch surface panels require a 74-inch clear door opening for delivery.
