First I just want to say that I'm not showing you the perfect desk, this is more of a question. My father is a master carpenter and he has agreed to build me my first custom desk, so I got to thinking why not take this opportunity to make THE PERFECT DESK. This desk will span 10 feet (3.048 meters) across my room. My question is, if you got to make your dream desk what would you get? (depth, height, cable management options, ect.). I'm looking to do a 3+1 monitor set up and I do still have my Xbox 360 and one to manage.

My perfect desk would be a simple L shaped design that has cable management. Also, it would be made out of mahogany. Height is a preference thing because not everyone is the same height.

Cherry wood with a golden oak stain. Pull out trays behind door on one side, file drawers on the other.. Wide 3" drawer to house keyboard and mouse, front of that drawers folds down into wrist rest. Raised monitor platform with speaker mounts. Monitor platform is high enough with an open space beneath it to stash physical media. 

 

Standard desk height is 30", I'd personally want around 16-18" between the monitor platform and front of desk. 

 

I wouldn't recommend actually putting your PC case inside the desk as it will be starved for air, unless you plan on putting intake fans in the desk itself. Also you'd have to put some grommets in the back to run your cords through.
