Using an L-shaped home office layout lets you take best advantage of available space and is well suited for situations where home office workers are sharing a room.
It provides a large workspace, often you can make it large enough for more than one person to use if need be. You can also adjust the workspace to include storage space and room for all home office equipment.
Make sure you keep track of where electrical outlets and phone jacks are so that they aren't blocked or inaccessible by the desk.
