Get the job done: Tips on creating the right office space

No matter what industry your business falls under, having a functional and aesthetically-pleasing office space plays a big part in your company’s success. If you hold meetings with your clients in your office, the right décor can leave a strong impression about your brand and the level of service they can expect. 

However, it is you and your employees who spend a large chunk of the day inside the office, so having a well-designed office can highly increase creativity, work productivity and enhance your team’s morale. As top suppliers of furniture in Malta, we share are our tips on creating an office space that works (pun intended).

 

Skin and bones

When you spend around a third of your day sitting at your desk, having a comfortable furniture arrangement is essential for productivity as well as your employees’ health. From ergonomic chairs to sturdy and durable desks, your furniture pieces make up the skeleton of the office space.  

 

It’s all about the flow

Office design isn’t only about paint colours and furniture, the entire flow of the office must be arranged to improve your employees’ comfort, creativity and efficiency.

 

Light the way 

Although it is one of the most important factors in any space, it is one of the most overlooked. So don’t forget good lighting for your office and desk area to increase productivity and prevent eyestrain, headaches, and negative moods.

 

Don’t hate, decorate

Decorating your office will help energise your space and create an environment that you’ll want to spend time in. Consider details like art, rugs, and wall colour - which can evoke a physical and emotional response. Another great tip is adding an inspiration board above your desk and filling it with things that inspire you, such as quotes, photos, and magazine cutouts.

 

Hide and store

It’s little use decorating a space only to have a room full of clutter, so make sure you have ample storage to hide unsightly items such as cords. 

 

Bring the outdoors in

We are biological creatures that are greatly affected by our exposure to the natural world. Inject life and colour into your space by bringing in a few large indoor plants for impact small ones to be placed on desks.
