This is a desk that was built to match a bed that I built for a customer in June (see example). Actually I built the bed for their home builder. The customer wanted a matching desk.
Because of the space problems between a wall and window, I had to adjust my normal depth of the desk. When dealing with angles small changes can effect a lot of different areas. I put all the measurements in a spreadsheet and entered formulas in for all the variables. When I changed the depth, I see how if effects the spacing in the center. I played with the numbers until I came up with good ratio.
Normally I don't build my raised panel sides. I outsource them. I built them this time because I didn’t know the depth of the overall desk until too close to the due date. This desk was completed in August 2011
