What, realistically is the smallest size I could expect to work at a desk? Reason being my new house has a nice little alcove near a set of french doors that lead outside (so I'd still need access to those) that I would love to make into a little desk.
The alcove is 1m wide and around 50cm deep. I'd imagine I will have to come out a little further than the alcove in order to facilitate a monitor + keyboard (although I could mount the former on the wall...
The added issue is the fact that I need access to the doors outside to the garden.
I'm considering a very similar thing (alcove next to a chimney breast). I reckon 60cm is probably a minimum depth, not just in terms of not being right on your monitor but also to be able to stretch your legs.
Thank goodness you mentioned that. I didn't even consider the leg depth...
I think mines a little more awkward as the window/ door is part of that alcove too, but I'm determined to make this work as I love the light that comes in there.
Bit of an odd one this but here goes.
