Storage Cabinets — Expert Answer
How tall should storage cabinets be in an open-plan office without blocking sightlines?
In open-plan offices where sightlines and natural light flow are important, limit freestanding storage cabinet heights to 42"–54" to keep them below the standing eye level of most adults (approximately 60"–66"). Cabinets at this height function as room dividers or zone markers without creating walls. For more private or dense storage needs, taller 72"–78" cabinets can be placed against walls or in designated storage zones rather than in the open plan. Low 29"–36" counter-height cabinets are the most 'invisible' option in an open plan, doubling as work surfaces.
