I have my keyboard in a recessed trough right in front of
the desk, and the radio slightly to my left so that my left
hand falls naturally on the main tuning knob.  I have a piece
of hard formica that I can lay over the keyboard cutout to make
a "normal" desk surface.

It is super nice for phone.  I just sit there and enter data, with
the keyboard at the perfect typing level.

On the other hand ... it isn't too hot for CW, because I have to
constantly bring my right hand up to the normal desk level (from
the keyboard) to use the paddle.  Not sure how to solv problem.
I can always use the keyboard at desk height on CW I guess ...
