The latest office designs and trends of 2020
In a modern generation many businesses are opening up yet neglecting office design ideas.
This is often a tough process and isn't always a quick one either unfortunately. However, we recommend you try and stick to the following modern office trends of 2020 in order to help get the results you'll love.Creating your perfect social environment
Today, offices laid out with cubicles aren’t producing the same results they once did. The modern office is less likely to succeed with this predictable layout. It’s more likely to progress with ideas taken from a simple hotel lobby. Think of the available space and how lobbies give people the opportunity to explore.
Transfer this to the office and you’re starting to think about creating the right feel. A flexible approach to working facilities works well. Instead of everyone tethered to their desk, remote access and the prominence of mobile devices now means that staff are just as productive working from the office desk as they are sitting on a sofa in the rec room.
Rest rooms
All companies should care about quality for their staff. Those who do usually invest in more restful recreational areas. With employees spending long hours at work, here are just some examples of specific areas you can create:
• health departments
• Fitness rooms
• Social areas
Anything which gives staff a chance to socialise, relax or simply take a break from staring at a screen is massively beneficial in the workplace
Take advantage of your space
Designs such as open plan areas are a fast growing feature and have been for some time. In 2020 it would seem crazy not to have a fully open-plan office design. This means using glass partitions ahead of far less friendly and not as aesthetically pleasing solutions.
Open plan is great for encouraging a friendly workplace where people feel part of something. Think about sitting at a desk all day, every day, separated by concrete or large partitions.Who wants to be working in an environment like that?
In 2020, suspended ceilings are making themselves known. Ideal for spaces with particularly high ceilings, rooms feel cosier whilst managing temperatures no matter the weather.
Don’t fall victim to a decades old office design!
