What Size Computer Desk Do You Need for a Living Room Corner?

Most living room corners suit a computer desk between 80 and 120cm wide and 45 to 60cm deep, but the right size for your home depends on the space around it. Here we explain how to measure a corner, from the distance to the nearest sofa, door or window to the position of sockets and sills. We look at how much clearance a chair needs and why it often overlaps a walkway. You will find a clear comparison of straight desks and compact corner desks, with guidance on when each makes sense, and an explanation of why depth matters more than width in a living space. We also cover desk height beside lower furniture, choosing a style that blends with your existing pieces, lighting a dark corner, keeping work and relaxation separate, and sizing examples for common situations such as a tight corner beside the sofa, a corner between windows and a corner by the door....
