Office Layout How we can add value to your office space

Achieving the Right Office Layout for Maximum Productivity

Your chosen office layout can directly affect the way your employees perform. If you are buying new furniture or simply want to redesign your office space, it is important that you take the various functions of your staff members into account when doing so. A comfortable staff member is one that will be the most productive so make sure that you aren’t arranging furniture in a way that will hinder their workflow or cause frustration for them. Professional office design is a service that we readily offer at Quantum Office Furniture. Whether your office is an empty shell or already has items of furniture in it, we can use our expertise and advanced space planning software to create a layout that looks great and is absolutely functional too.

Before going all out with making changes in your office, consider these pointers:

• Do you need an open plan or sectioned off office area? While some staff members like to have their own private cubicle, you will need to see if this is possible with the space that you have available. If you are lacking in space, it is best to try to keep the office area open.

• Create a communal area where staff members can relax, unwind and de-stress. Sometimes frustrations can crop up during the work day and by creating a comfortable relaxation zone, your staff members will be able to better handle these moments. Comfortable couches, chairs and tables and maybe even a fridge for refreshments are all good ideas for this area.

• Plan the placement of furniture based on the processes that staff members have to follow. If the stationary is too far from the desks or if a staff member has to walk extremely far to use the printer, chances are that they will become frustrated.

• Ensure that there is sufficient storage space to keep the office space tidy. If files are stacked on desks and paperwork is all over every surface, your workspace is going to look unprofessional to potential clients and will certain cause staff members to feel irritable and daunted.

• Furniture must be comfortable and of a good quality. While it might be tempting to buy a variety of cheap office chairs to save on money, you will probably regret it in the long run. Firstly, if your staff members are uncomfortable, they are bound to be less productive and cheap furniture might not last as long as you hope it will. Top-quality furniture items will be with your business for many years and will also boost your company image.
