Frequently asked
What height should a desk be?
Elbows at 90° when sitting with forearms level on the desk surface. For most people, 72-75cm (the standard desk height) is roughly correct. If you're taller or shorter, consider a height-adjustable desk (raise it for tall, lower for short).
What's the best monitor position?
Top of screen at eye level or slightly below. Screen distance: arm's length (50-70cm). This reduces neck strain from looking up and eye strain from being too close. A monitor arm is the most effective single purchase for ergonomic improvement.
