myfs_101678 Posted July 19, 2004 Share Posted July 19, 2004 Will be moving into a new office very soon. Managed to get a work station with the best facing for me but my back will be facing a row of windows. What should I do to counter this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Cecil Lee Posted July 19, 2004 Staff Share Posted July 19, 2004 Dear Anon, Frankly, you are not alone in this situation. If we look carefully at all high rise buildings, many offices and even "bosses" rooms or individual rooms have their back against such a glass wall. What one can do is to have a back cabinet up to e.g. waist height or around 42 to 43 cm high. Often, we do see such cabinets behind us or our table. In doing so, what is left is the "top-half" windows. While the lower half is covered or taken-up with such low-back cabinets. Therefore, frankly, don't be too concern over this. But check to see if you can place such low -filing back cabinets behind your seat Warmest Regards,Cecil Quote On 7/19/2004 3:04:48 AM, Anonymous wrote:Will be moving into a newoffice very soon.Managed to get a work stationwith the best facing for mebut my back will be facing arow of windows.

myfs_101678 Posted July 20, 2004 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Dear Cecil,The windows are half-windows, meaning they start from waist level all the way to the ceiling. If this is the case, is there still a need for a low cabinet?Thanks!
