U-Shaped Desks — Expert Answer

What room size do you need to comfortably fit a U-shaped desk?

The minimum room size for a U-shaped desk is approximately 12'x12' — this accommodates a standard 60"x66" U-desk with 48" clearance behind for the chair to roll out and a visitor to pass. A 12'x14' or 14'x14' room is much more comfortable. For executive configurations with 72"+ returns, plan on 14'x16' or larger.
