Executive Office Furniture: What Makes it Special?

Executive Office

We all know that premium or executive office furniture is generally more unique and pricier than its standard counterparts, but why? What makes it special? At AOF we’ve sold, delivered, and installed plenty of executive office furniture, and fitted out plenty of executive offices. Using what we’ve learned through our collective experience, here’s our useful guide on what sets it apart from standard office furniture.

Leather Executive Office Chair

Executive Office Chairs

Executive office chairs tend to be bigger and bolder by design, and made from more luxurious materials, including good quality leather, and high-quality mesh. They are also generally more ergonomic task chairs, with plenty of adjustable features, compared to your more standard operator chair. Thicker and more luxurious padding is another feature you tend to find when it comes to executive office chairs, as well as high backrests and headrests.

Executive Desk

Executive Office Desks

Executive office desks again tend to be larger and more lavish than the standard office desk. They tend to be made from a better-quality wood and come with in-built cable management accessories, such as portholes and cable baskets. Another common trait in executive office desks is for them to have a corner design/style, so they are larger, but can still sit flush in the corner of a room, taking up less floor space. In-built lockable storage such as pedestals or credenza units is another common feature of executive office desks, allowing you to store all your important documents and items in one place.

In more recent times, the sit-stand office desk has become much more prevalent in executive office spaces. Height adjustable at the touch of a button, these ergonomic desks allow for a healthier working lifestyle, helping its user to avoid remaining sedentary for long periods of time.

Executive Credenza storage Unit

Executive Office Storage

Often designed to match a specific executive desk, executive office storage will often have the same look and be made of the same material as the executive office desk. As previously mentioned, pedestals and credenza units can be built-in to larger executive corner desks and will always match up with the look and style of the desk. If not built into the desk itself, executive storage tends to be mobile or desk high pedestals, executive credenzas, and executive cupboards/bookcases.
