Elixir · Layout study
A focused work room needs a stable desk position, reachable tools and a route that stays clear when the chair is occupied. These options use movable desks and storage to support different work rhythms; treat the footprints as planning sketches and verify selected furniture before ordering.

Illustrative footprints only. Check actual openings, columns, connections, operating space, and applicable requirements on site. Shared links save room size; door settings stay in this session.
Study 01
Center the main work surface on the back wall and place low storage along a side. This gives the user a consistent view and keeps frequently used materials close without enclosing the desk.
Trade-off: The chair occupies the center of the room while in use, so this arrangement is less suitable when others need to pass behind the worker.
Study 02
Use opposing side positions for two distinct activities, such as calls and hands-on work. Keep shared supplies on the back edge so neither station claims the other's immediate work surface.
Trade-off: The stations face different directions and may feel separate; check sightlines and noise before assigning collaborative tasks here.
Study 03
Run a broad worktable along one side for drawing, sorting or equipment setup, with mobile drawers opposite and reference storage at the back. The open middle can serve as a temporary project staging area.
Trade-off: A long table reduces flexibility along that wall, and the middle staging area disappears when a large project is active.
