What is a U Shaped Desk?
A U shaped desk is a type of workstation or office desk that is designed in the shape of the letter "U." It typically consists of a large desk surface that extends in three directions, providing ample space for the user to work and organize materials.

Storage is often one of the most overlooked needs of an office. We design and build our complete office thinking it’s perfect only to find that the two or three pedestal drawers on our desks aren’t near enough storage space. To prevent this, many desk manufacturers build extra storage into their desk models. A U shaped desk can provide unmatched storage options versus smaller desk shapes.
With this in mind, I have compiled a list of six different U shaped desks that provide extreme levels of storage. While this list highlights a few models, there are many more U shaped desks with storage to choose from in our inventory. If this list gets you started down th (Read More)
A small office can be challenging to furnish. Multiple issues arise when you begin the process of doing so. The most obvious is limited space with the conventional wisdom calling for small office furniture. However, this is often flawed due to the type of work that we do in our offices. Small desks just don’t allow us to perform the work that we are required to do daily. So, what do we do?
From my own personal experience in a small office in my home, I was able to find a fantastic desk that fit the requirements of my daily duties exceptionally well. How did I do this? When I arrived in Madison for my initial training, I sat down with the skilled co-workers who are (Read More)
The modern office design is increasingly popular in offices across North America these days. One of the main reasons is the design fits so well in the open office concept.

To borrow the words of Forest Gump- modern office design and open office concept “go together like peas and carrots.”
When starting a modern office design, it is best to start with the centerpiece of the office, which is the desk. The most popular desk style today is the (Read More)

Looking at today’s office trends we see that open and bright are extremely popular design motifs that are being utilized more and more. Offices with the space to stretch out are moving away from the boxed in cubicle lifestyle that has dominated the office jungle for decades.

As I was researching my last blog, “A Guide to Finding the Right L-Shaped Desk for a Small Office” I kept coming back to the idea of my own L shaped desk in my home office. The more I studied and compiled data for the other blog, I also found myself setting aside inventory for ideas for corner desks and L shaped desks for a home office.

Versatility with the office furniture can be a bonus for a growing office. Take the L shaped desk for example. If we purchase one for the space we are in now, wouldn’t it be great if it fit the next office space we put it in even if the configuration of the desk is required to be different? I know it’s a luxury to be able to think that far ahead but with most L shaped desks, you don’t have to worry they are naturally reversible.
While some L shaped desks are designed for a very specific layout, most are designed to be reversible to fit any office space. Today, I want to draw your attention to the benefit of purchasing a reversible L shaped desk so tha (Read More)

A large office allows for a large desk. In most cases a large desk is a much needed tool to work with on a daily basis. U shaped desks are the largest desks in office furniture. They provide three sides of workspace around the user. At its most basic, this means that the user can multitask on a minimum of three projects each separated by the three individual desktops. However, the office furniture is not just limited in that respect. The U shaped desk opens the door for so much more! This configuration allows for the most storage of all desks in commercial office furniture. The versatility of the U shaped desk cannot be understated.

I thought that we would look at one of the most overlooked desk options for a collaborative or growing office. It’s the T shaped desk for two people. I know that it isn’t the most obvious desk shape at first glance, but if you look a little closer, it makes a lot of sense and honestly should be used more often in today’s office setting.

A growing office needs to have versatility. They need the ability to transition from one phase to the next swiftly. While there are a lot of variables that go into a transition such as this, one of the best ways to make it easier is to have office furniture that can change with each move. For larger desks such as the U shaped desks versatility means being reversible. For a U shaped desk, being reversible means that the bridge, which is the centerpiece connecting the front and back of the desk can be placed on either side as needed.
A reversible U shaped desk will ensure that with each move, the office furniture will be able to fit within any office setting. Not only th (Read More)
What happens when a modern innovation meets the largest desk shape available? The joining of a multitasking workstation with a technological measure to bring activity to the office throughout the workday.

The modern twist is turning the main desk into a sit stand desk.

As we get settled into the new year, we are looking at fresh office furniture design ideas. Today I want to focus back in on the conference room.

Today I thought I would continue our look at office furniture for tight spaces with what is probably going to be the most popular type in the series with small L shaped desks. When square footage is limited, we need the most out of the office furniture that we can find for the space. If you’re like me, you’ve been squeezed into a small shared office with a co-worker because the business just doesn’t have enough room for a full office for everyone. In my case, my roommate and I were still able to squeeze in a small L shaped desk each. This office furniture eased the strain of the limited work room between us by providing us with a workstation that gave us (Read More)
In meetings with specialists at Madison Liquidators, I had time to compare notes on office cabinets. It’s always interesting to see what another set of eyes will catch and what you may have missed and vise versa.

So with this writing, we are going to highlight different kinds of storage cabinets that are found on the Madison Liquidators online marketplace.

As a gamer, I often get caught looking at the gaming side of our office furniture. I’ll get distracted from my task anytime a gaming desk or chair comes across my feed. For years my gaming set up was a retail store desk that was cheap in price and just as cheap in quality. Honestly, it needed replacing after six months but with some redneck engineering and a whole lot of duct tape, I made it last for years. Not that I was proud of it or anything. In fact, my gaming set up was somewhat of an embarrassment anytime someone came over.
You see, we grew up with gaming but many of us didn’t allow gaming grow up with us. We still cling to subpar gaming setups fil (Read More)
For many business and office workers there comes a time when the office desk doesn’t have enough workspace due to the clutter on top of it because there is not enough storage space. This situation can sneak up on you even though there are signs and hints that are often ignored that would have helped avoid the organizational disaster that lays before you. Luckily, there is a simple solution to many of these organization problems- adding a hutch to the desk.
An office desk hutch provides storage space for all the things that tend to clutter the desktop when there isn’t enough storage. It’s a practical solution that pays immediate dividends for the effic (Read More)
After reviewing standing office furniture for the past week or so, I thought I would look into this style in the most popular office desk around today- the L shaped desk. L shaped desks are always “flying off the shelf†at Madison Liquidators and for good reason. They provide an upgraded workstation compared to a traditional rectangular desk. They give the worker double the desktop workspace versus a traditional shaped desk. This extra workspace pays dividends for project management and desktop organization. I personally work from an L shaped desk and do so because I was allowed to pick out my own desk, so I like so many others went with L shaped office furnit (Read More)
I have finally decided that I need to make a change around my home. My oldest daughter has grown up and is on the verge of moving out of my house. In about a month, I will have an empty room in my home with no one to occupy it. So, I am free to do with it as I will. I have considered many different options but I have landed on it being time to finally commit to a full game room! It was a difficult decision but a mature one.
Now it is time for me to begin the process of getting everything in order to set up the new game room. I am going to be looking at gaming desks as the anchor of my new game room. I have a little time to figure out all the details of the entire room. S (Read More)
Boat shaped conference tables are designed to give off the appearance of being upscale. They flare out on the length side to break away from the traditional rectangular conference table shape.

That profile is where this particular style of office furniture gets its name- boat shaped.
The boat shaped conference table is one belongs in a professional setting. Often times they are found in executive board rooms, where they set the style for the entire conference room. They offer plenty of style and character with their bowed sides and finishes. Boat shaped confe (Read More)
Storage furniture is a particularly vital component of a fully functioning professional office. However, office storage furniture is often one of the most forgotten aspects of office furniture when furnishing an office.

With that in mind, we have decided to highlight a few commonly purchased storage furniture solutions for the office. These selections were carefully chosen for their storage ability, and knack for completing an office. Everything from bookcases to credenzas (Read More)
Keeping the office clean and organized can be a chore for if there is not adequate storage. When we talk about keeping the office clean and free of clutter, we often think of waste baskets, but clutter is more than waste. Clutter can be ink pens on the desktop or files stacked on top of a conference table or even books strown about haphazardly. These examples perfectly show the difference between a professional looking office and one that does not have adequate storage cabinet space.
Storage cabinets are the unsung heroes of office organization. They provide a place for everything in the office. When things need a place that will not fit in a desk drawer a storage cabi (Read More)
In life, first impressions are everything. In our relationships both personal and professional, it is more often than not the first impression that makes the biggest impact. These once in a lifetime moments carry extreme amounts of weight for us all. That’s why we spend so much time “primping” ourselves before big occasions such as a blind date or a job interview, we know that first impression is the biggest tool to get a positive response.
This is truly a principle that most of us live by. In a professional office a first impression is a must. When we enter a typical office, we are greeted by a reception area. It is an area designed to allow a smooth (Read More)

Chances are that if you've worked in a shared office space with cubicles, then you've had the typical office desk and file cabinet.
If you could upgrade to your own private office or home office, then maybe you've copied the same setup (minus cubicle walls). Or, if you've done any exploring in order to get the best office furniture for your space, then you may have come across computer desks with storage.

I will make a bold statement: The amount of clutter directly affects one's physical, mental, and emotional organization.
Now let's back it up:
According to Brother UK, 54% of Americans feel overwhelmed by clutter. (Emotional)
Meanwhile, the National Association of Professional Organizers says employees waste about four hours per week looking for papers. (Physical)
And Crowdspring reports that since the brain responds to order, people have difficulty being productive when there is too much visual stimulation. (Mental)
These startling statistics prove an important point: Our spaces profoundly affect us in some of the most critical areas of our lives.

You don't have to be a packrat or hoarder to know that your own office space or cubicle's storage space can very easily become packed full of stuff. Documents, office supplies, and personal memorabilia all seem to fight for enough space on our desks, and whether we like it or not, the stuff is there to stay.
That being said, there's no reason why it has to get out of hand. You don't have to sit at a cluttered desk all day shuffling under papers to find your stapler or clear a space for your lunch. There are numerous office storage cabinets, containers, and the like that serve a multitude of functions for a variety of work styles, and all can turn your office chaos into (Read More)

When thinking of a modern office, specifically the conference room the conventional thought for the office furniture is a modern shaped conference table. Like the boat shaped conference table that flairs out on the long ends so that everyone in the meeting can see each other, or the racetrack conference table that has rounded ends for a touch of uniqueness in the office furniture of the conference room. These two shapes seem to have been created for the modern office, but manufacturers are making a concerted effort to broaden the office furniture available for the aesthetic by applying modern touches to traditional conference table shapes.

Quick! Name an office staple that you use regularly but don't put much thought into buying. If you said pens, I'll accept it. But I was thinking more along the lines of something luminary.

Storage is always a priority around the office. I like to say there are two types of office workers. 1- the person with a nice and neat desktop but has a mess in their desk drawers and 2- the person whose desktop is a mess but their drawers are in immaculate order. There is no in-between… or if someone is actually able to pull both off, they are very sketchy… a suspect even!!!
However, additional storage can help alleviate some of these organizational issues. But what comes with a standalone storage unit is the need for privacy so that you can ensure that everything that you place in there stays in there. With that in mind, I thought I would look at some (Read More)
When you begin gaming, you enter a fantasy realm where you have power, situations are life or death and you can even personalize the world you live in. IRL however, only some of those things hold true.
Take for instance power. You have some, but probably not the building cities, conquering battlefields kind of power. How about the power to personalize the world you live in? We all have that power.
