Getting the balance right between stylish office design and practicality can be difficult when you are restricted on space. But with some careful planning and a budget set before you begin, you can get the balance perfect and still have room in your budget to add the finishing touches to the rest of the room. To help you out and ensure your success in every aspect, we will be providing you with insider knowledge that we have collected on how you can create the perfect stylish office.
Invest In A Whiteboard Alternative
If you have an office space that relies heavily on whiteboards, this could be intruding on the amount of space that you have. However, opting for a blackboard or even blackboard paint can provide you with a space to take notes, without taking up too much space in the office. Though this can be difficult to track down, having one or two scattered around the office can help you in the long term to make a productive space that works for various teams.
Opt For Air Fresheners
In addition to blackboards, the addition of air fresheners to the office can help you to maximise productivity. This is backed up by recent studies that showed 54% of people making fewer errors when they could smell a lemon scent. Though this is completely dependent on the workforce that you have, this is a simple way of increasing productivity and keeping the office space smelling as pleasant as possible throughout the day. Whether this is an air freshener that lets of sudden bursts when someone walks in or a wide range of air fresheners in the plugs around the office, this can help you in the long term.
Making A Great First Impression
Making a great first impression with a reception area is crucial for a business of any size, but making the perfect reception area can be difficult, particularly if you are limited on space. However, with a wide range of office reception furniture available, it is not impossible to find a desk that fits your space. This with recognisable branding will help your business to stand out without having to spend a small fortune on a desk, chairs and other furnishings such as rugs and imagery to match your brand.
Customise Storage Options
If you are looking to add storage to your office, customising it could benefit you. Whether you opt for shelving to show off a number of company products or you opt for draws within the desk to provide a personalised workspace for each employee, this will benefit you in the long term as you have all the storage that you need without taking up to much floor space. This is particularly useful if you have a small office, to begin with as you can store items easily without the use of filing cabinets.
With this in mind, there are a number of ways that you can create the perfect modern office without spending a small fortune on furniture and artwork, whilst still perfectly reflecting your brand. Where will you start?
