A desk facing a window can offer daylight and a visual break, but it can also create screen glare, heat, distraction, and reduced awareness of the room.
Quick answer
Test the position during actual work hours; keep it only when the display remains readable, the chair is supported, and the window and walkway stay usable.
Measure glare through the day
Morning and afternoon sun arrive at different angles. Use a perpendicular screen, adjustable blind, balanced room light, or modest desk rotation before abandoning the position.
Keep support and access
Leave room for curtains, handles, vents, radiators, and cleaning. A stable chair zone matters more than a symbolic claim about what lies beyond the glass.
Manage the view deliberately
A distant view may rest the eyes, while moving traffic can interrupt attention. Place the main task slightly away from the busiest sightline and test concentration over several sessions.
