With the introduction of working from home, it is essential to choose a suitable homeworking desk in order to maintain productivity and well-being at home. In France, 47% of companies use homeworking and 33% of employees work at least once a week from home (Statista, 2023).

Among executives, 40% sometimes find it difficult to separate professional and personal life (APEC, December 2023). Choosing the right telecommuting office can help alleviate these challenges and improve work-life balance.

The different types of offices for homeworking

1. Folding hanging desk

The drop-down hanging desk is perfect for tight spaces. Attached to the wall, it unfolds to provide sufficient work surface and folds easily when not in use. This type of office allows you to optimize space and maintain an orderly work environment.

Negative points of the folding hanging desk

• Less stability compared to a traditional office.
• Limited work space, which may not be suitable for people needing more surface area to work on.
• Requires wall installation, which may not be possible in all homes.

2. Nomadic office

The nomadic office is an innovative solution for homeworkers. This is a foldable desk that can be placed on any surface in the house. Easy to assemble and disassemble, it allows you to start working in a few minutes and store all the equipment at the end of the day, thus erasing all traces of work. This type of office promotes better disconnection outside of rest hours, essential for well-being, especially when we know that 40% of executives struggle to separate work and personal life (APEC, 2024).

Negative point of the nomadic office

• Requires tidying up your desk after each use, however, this ritual helps erase all traces of work and thus promotes better disconnection.

3. Folding desk

The folding desk is a solution for those who need flexibility. Easy to assemble and disassemble, it can be stored after use. This teleworking office can be useful for people who do not have a dedicated work room and must set up their workstation in different rooms of the home.

Negative points of the folding desk

• May lack strength and durability compared to fixed desks.
• Less built-in storage space, which can lead to clutter.
• Lack of aesthetics and work on design

4. Sit/Stand Desk

For those looking to vary their working positions, the sit/stand desk is a great option. Adjustable in height, it allows you to easily move from a sitting position to a standing position and thus promotes better blood circulation and reduces pain linked to a prolonged static posture.

Negatives of the sit/stand desk

• Request a permanent space in your home
• Often more expensive than traditional desks.
• May require frequent adjustments to find the ideal height, which may be confusing for some users.
• Requires a power supply if the height adjustment is motorized, which may limit its positioning.

How to choose your desk for homeworking?

1. Desk size and shape

The size and shape of the homeworking desk are criteria that should not be put aside. Whether you choose an upright desk, a folding desk, or a compact desk, it is important to select a model that fits the space available in your home. If you have little space, opt for a small homeworking desk that fits well into your environment.

2. Integrated storage

Integrated storage allows you to optimize work space by keeping your belongings within reach. Choose a telecommuting desk with drawers, cabinets or shelves to organize your documents and supplies. This helps maintain a functional and orderly workspace, especially if you work in your living room.

3. Cable Management

Think about practical details like cable management. A telecommuting desk with built-in cable ducts can simplify the routing of electrical cords and avoid tangles. Some desks even offer built-in outlets to safely charge your devices.

4. Ergonomics

Ergonomics is crucial for a homeworking desk. Choose a height-adjustable desk to find the ideal posture and reduce the risk of back pain and fatigue. An ergonomic desk contributes to better comfort and greater productivity.

Missing space

If you don't have the space to set up a real desk for homeworking, this can make organizing work complicated and taking over your living space. Opt for a folding desk like a portable desk that can be installed on any surface in the blink of an eye or a folding desk that can be assembled and disassembled for each use.

Office stuff lying around

When your desk stuff is lying around on the living room table, it creates constant clutter that can affect your concentration and well-being. You have to succeed in erasing all traces of work at home. Having a dedicated workspace is difficult, which can also make the separation between work and home life even blurrier. A portable or folding desk could be the solution because they both have built-in storage.

Homeworking as a couple

If you and your partner both work remotely, it can be difficult to find a quiet, comfortable workspace for everyone. Lack of space and mutual distractions can affect productivity and concentration. A portable desk could allow you to have your own space, your concentration bubble thus reducing sources of distraction.
