Hi,



Nope, it’s not silly at all, but a design guideline for workplaces. And it makes sense, especially if you stand there for 8 hours straight. I made the mistake myself of buying a desk with a glass top for home. It looks nice, but it’s crap: without a long-sleeve sweater you can’t sit and type on it without your forearms getting cold.



The gentleman enjoys and keeps silent.... D

Best regards,

Andreas

Hi,


Of course, a "not" is missing..

All correct. However, this does not apply to kitchen countertops.

Seriously: Who on earth rests their forearms on the work surface while working? Such nonsense... the argument is and remains ridiculous!

When I look around here in the office: Everyone who is of normal height and sits at the desk in a somewhat ergonomic posture working with mouse and keyboard. The arms have to go somewhere after all.

I don't know how tall you are or how you sit at the desk…

If you’re only about a head taller than a dachshund and can barely see over the edge of the table, then you don’t have that problem….

@Steffan and

No one said granite countertops are "not allowed." I just find it funny that when designing professional workstations, I avoid exactly those things people pay a lot of money for in kitchens.

Personally, I just don’t like the feel of stone countertops at all, and their appearance always reminds me of tombstones.

But everyone can of course do as they please, that’s what living in a free country is about.

Regards,

Andreas

Our son sits quite a lot on the countertops in the kitchen. I at least rest my hands on the counter. But I never have to think about countertop surcharges of 5000 EUR anyway.
