How to Set Up Your Desk Near Natural Light (Without Glare)

Workers with natural light at their desks report higher energy, better mood, and less eye strain. The ideal position: desk perpendicular to the window. Natural light from the side illuminates your workspace without screen reflections.

If perpendicular isn't possible, a 45-degree angle is the next best. Avoid facing the window (glare) or back to the window (screen reflection). Use adjustable blinds to manage changing light throughout the day.
