Your office furnishings and decorations say a great deal about you. Setting your desk in the middle of the floor, with chairs facing it, suggests a formal atmosphere and an occupant who wants to maintain distance from visitors. On the other hand, a desk positioned against a wall conveys an image of confidence. A small amount of messiness implies comfort and friendliness, but too much clutter may cause a visitor to think that the office occupant doesn't care about making a good impression on anyone. At the opposite extreme, an immaculate desk conveys coldness and may be perceived as a sign that the person doesn't have enough work to do.
