The direction you face aligns you within a particular energy which can make a significant difference to the way you work. You can also choose a direction according to the kind of work that you do.

In addition, the position of the desk in relation to doors and windows will have a significant influence on the way you feel in your office or study. In the case of a door it will also affect the way in which you are perceived by other people should you have visitors to your study. Ideally, the door should be in front of your desk, which can be at an angle, as long as the door is not to the side – or behind the desk.
