This creates a neat and efficient feel for office spaces, making it ideal for clients who prefer a clean and bright atmosphere.

2.Space layout (size)

Reasonable space layout is the key to ensuring the comfort and efficiency of the home office, and the size of the standing desks and chairs must match the office space.

Measuring Office Space

Before choosing a standing desk and ergonomics chair, it is recommended that you first accurately measure the available space in your home office. Pay attention to measuring the length, width and height of the room, as well as the locations of doors, windows, sockets, etc., to provide an accurate reference for the placement of desks and chairs.

Size of standing desk

The length of the standing desk should be determined according to office needs and space size. Generally speaking, the recommended length of a standing desk for single use is 80-160cm(31.5”-63”); if you need to place multiple office equipment or use for multiple people, you’re suggested to choose a 180-200cm(71”-79”) table. In terms of width, the common width is between 60-80cm(23.6”-31.5”). In addition, the height adjustment range should also be considered. Generally, the lowest height should be able to meet the needs of sitting, and the highest height should be suitable for work on standing posture. The common adjustment range is 70-115cm(27.5”-45.3”), 70-120cm(27.5”-47”), and 60-125cm(23.6”-49”). ZHIDING's standing desks can meet the above specifications.

Office chair size

The size of the office chair is equally important. The width of the seat should ensure that the user can sit comfortably, generally between 45-55cm(17.7”-21.7”); the depth of the seat should be 40-45cm (15.7”-17.7”)to provide sufficient support. In addition, the width and height of the armrests should also be considered, as well as the space required for it to rotate and move, to ensure free movement in a limited office space.

Fabric seats are soft, comfortable and breathable, but they are easy to get dirty and need to be cleaned regularly.

Mesh seats combine the advantages of fabric and leather, have good breathability and support, and are not easy to feel tired even after sitting for a long time.
