Bow-Front Desks — Expert Answer
What is the best bow-front desk setup for spreading out large documents or plans?
The bow-front desk's extended center depth is one of its most practical functional advantages for document-intensive work. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we specify bow-front desks for attorneys, architects, and executives who regularly review large-format documents or spread multiple reports simultaneously. The approximately 40" center depth of a standard executive bow-front — combined with a return — creates a working area approaching 20 square feet of usable flat surface. Pairing with a monitor arm to reposition the screen when large-document review is underway maximizes the available surface further. For the most demanding document-spreading use cases, a credenza provides an additional 20+ square feet of reference surface immediately behind the chair. Call 1-800-460-0858.
