Recently we have been doing more office interior design projects. As companies are adapting to staff working from home for part of the week there has been a lot of change in how they use their office space. We have noticed a few trends that surround this subject that you might recognise.
Business owners are having to make their office environment more appealing.
One of the trends we have noticed is that companies are having to create environments that can compete with the home environment. It is not just a case of saying you must come into the office 5 days a week post covid. If they are determined to work from home staff will just work for someone that give them the most flexibility.
Rentable / co working desk spaces are on the rise
Co working spaces and small offices are also on the rise as due to the technological advances individuals and small groups of people can now run smaller businesses more easily. There is now less demand for larger office buildings where one company will occupy a site. The new model seems to be that companies will take up less space and need built in adaptability for when things change again (which is all the time). This is where we come in…
Adaptable office space
As an office interior designer adaptability is central to what we do at Engaging Interiors Ltd. Our approach to all of our interiors is that if you can design adaptation into what you build it will last longer. Our designs also have the benefit of being quicker to install as the bespoke elements are only fixed if absolutely necessary. This normally means they can be delivered shortly before hand over.
Case Study 01 – Office space for Marketing Company in Sussex
The office interior designer brief for this space was to add more of the companies branding and ethos into the space they had taken over about a year before. Seed is focused on the welfare of their employees and wanted to create zones for the office allowing for the differing ways of working with one another.
We have created a selection of meeting rooms as well as break out spaces. We have also upgraded the look and feel of the kitchen.
Below are some of our meed boards as well as a photograph of the existing site.
