Are you looking for desk organization tips? An efficient desk contributes to a pleasant working environment. This gives you a better overview, more job satisfaction, and less stress. Curious about what you can do to organize your office desk functionally? In this blog, we give you three tips.
1. The location of the office
The first step in creating an efficient office layout is the location. The location of the desk determines the view and influences the possibilities in the rest of the space.
It is important to choose a place where you can concentrate well. It is also advisable to place your desk near a window. This will allow plenty of natural light to enter the room. Light gives you more energy, allowing you to work more comfortably and harder.

2. Implement a clean desk policy!
Clean desk policies are becoming increasingly common in offices these days. A clean desk means that there is as little as possible on your desk. Only the items necessary for your work are kept on your desk.
The aim of the policy is to reduce distractions. It also makes the working environment look more professional, giving visiting customers a more positive impression of your company.
Combining office design with a clean-desk policy can also be useful for the 'new way of working'. This flexible way of working means that fixed workstations are no longer necessary.
Another advantage is that a tidy desk saves on cleaning costs. Cleaners can finish their work more quickly because there is no unnecessary clutter on the desks.
However, it is often the case that not everyone is happy with a clean desk policy. Many employees actually prefer to work on paper or use other physical attributes. Therefore, discuss this thoroughly before implementing this policy.
3. Desk accessories: useful accessories
An office setup is complete with the right accessories. By choosing smart products, you can make your office desk even more efficient. The following accessories are essential:
- Invest in cable management. Having cables hanging everywhere is not only unsafe, but also looks messy.
- A monitor arm for two screens. You can work even more efficiently on multiple screens, because you don't have to keep switching between programs or tabs.
- A built-in smartphone charger.
