Office design is consistently one of the hottest topics of conversation in the world of workplaces and welled designed ergonomic solutions are continuing to grow in popularity. When it comes to proper ergonomics, there are many factors that play into a healthier workstation that will help you on a daily basis as well as in the long term. From monitor height, to keyboard shape, even how far away or how close you are to the desk, you will need to take plenty of things into account before purchasing a workstation for yourself.

By framing it in a tighter space, it can perfectly fit a monitor or laptop and keep your eyes focused on the one spot to cut down on neck and shoulder pain.
