Straight Desks — Expert Answer
What features should an architect or engineer look for in a straight desk?
Architects and engineers typically need substantial desk space for drawings, physical models, and large-format reference materials alongside a workstation. A 72- or wider straight desk with 30 inches of depth gives the working surface needed. Consider a complementary drafting table or flat file cabinet alongside the desk for physical drawings — these are more efficient for large-format work than trying to do it all at a standard 29-inch desk height. Task lighting that eliminates glare on drawing surfaces matters. A desk with a return on one side lets you dedicate one surface to the computer and one to physical work. Standing-height supplement desks for reviewing prints while standing are valuable. FindOfficeFurniture.com — call 888-719-4960.
