Integrated Technology

Technology is a necessary part of any office space, and it should be integrated into the design of the space and the furniture in order to make it easier for employees to do their job and be more efficient. This means having charging stations, plenty of outlets, and good Wi-Fi throughout the office. Many office chairs now have built-in speakers and charging ports for phones and laptops. Some desks have hidden computer monitors that pop up when needed. Sumner Furniture & Design in Sterling offers great office furniture with integrated technology. Get started today.

Collaborative Spaces

Collaboration is key in many businesses, so it is important to have not only spaces that encourage and facilitate collaboration, but also office furniture. This could be anything from meeting rooms to lounge areas to standing desks. Collaborative office space furniture is essential for any business that wants to encourage teamwork and creativity. This type of furniture includes items like standing desks, whiteboards, and comfortable chairs. It is important to have a variety of furniture options so that employees can choose what works best for them. For example, some people may prefer to stand while they work, while others may prefer to sit. Whiteboards are perfect for brainstorming sessions, and comfortable chairs are necessary for long meetings. Collaborative office space furniture should be both functional and stylish so that it promotes a positive work environment. Get started today.

Multifunctional Areas

In order to make the most of your office space, it's important to have areas that can be used for more than one purpose. This could be a lounge area that doubles as a meeting space or a kitchen that can be used for events. Since the space will be multifunctional, having furniture designed specifically for multiple uses can be incredibly helpful to make these spaces even more comfortable and user friendly. Sumner Furniture & Design supplies new and pre-owned office furniture, such as desks, chairs, and office cubicles, designed for multipurpose areas. Contact us to get started today.

Proper Lighting

Office lighting is important for both productivity and comfort. There should be a good mix of natural and artificial light in your modern office design. Natural lighting has been shown to have many health benefits, as well as productivity benefits for your office employees, and therefore should be incorporated as much as possible. With artificial lighting, be sure to select the highest quality of office lighting, including task and ambient lighting, to help ease eye strain and make your office beautiful. Your office lighting should also be adjustable so that it can be customized for each person and space.

Recreational/Break Areas

It is super important to have areas where people can take a break from work and relax. Not only does this show that you appreciate the hard work your employees do for you and for your customers, but it allows them a chance to recharge and check in on other important aspects of their lives, such as their kids. An office break room can be anything, from a game room to a coffee bar, a patio, or a lounge area.
