How high should a desk be?
The standard height for a computer desk is between 50-70 cm. Within this range, most people should be able to find a height that fits.
Depending on how tall you are, and what kind of desk chair you use, you can determine which height is most comfortable for you. A few general guidelines for a good desk height are:
- When sitting down, the desk should reach up to your elbows. You should be able to comfortably rest your arms on the surface in a roughly 90-degree angle.
- Underneath the desk, you should have roughly 35-40 cm from the top of your knees to the bottom of the desk. And from the bottom of the desk to the floor it should be roughly 60 cm.
- Remember that your height and your sitting position might influence your optimal desk height, but since ergonomics can go a long way in supporting your body and warding off fatigue, it’s worth spending a little time on.
- Try sitting by a desk or dinner table and measure the height to make a calculated choice.

Which desk or computer desk should you choose for your home?
Not much room for a desk? Try a folding desk with a drop-leaf tabletop to save space. Need more storage? Take a look at desks with built-in shelves. If you’re working from home, measure the area you’ll use as your office—whether it’s a corner of the living room, a bedroom, or even the balcony—and pick a desk that fits your space (for one or more screens) and your storage needs.
If you want an aesthetic desk with built-in storage, decide if you need it on one side—like our MICKE desk, which also has a smart cable outlet for your computer—or on both sides. Would you add extra storage with a HEMNES front module? Prefer a desk and shelving combination to divide your space? Check out our KALLAX shelves. Or maybe you simply want a tabletop with legs, so you can add drawer units underneath.
Can you use a work table in small spaces?
Of course! You’ll find compact, folding, or vertical storage desks to make the most of every inch. Use trays and boxes to organise your area, and keep your surface clear so you can move easily.
