Another element that every modern office should include is flexibility and adaptability. Since change is
constant, it’s important that offices are flexible and can quickly adapt to meet changing circumstances and needs. Employees are
individuals who have a prefered way of working that suits them. When people are working comfortably in their ideal work environment, they
are likely to be more productive and motivated in their jobs. A good way to achieve flexibility and create an ideal work environment is to
provide workers with options. By creating an office with private desks for highly-focused independent work in addition to sociable and
collaborative workspaces for teams, employees are able to choose a style of working that suits them.
Modern workspaces are moving away from static layouts and designs towards more versatility and customisation. Introduce an element of
flexibility to your office space by implementing one of our height adjustable desks or some modular collaboration furniture. These items
mean that the office layout can continually be reconfigured and adjusted. Modern Office has a wide range of furniture solutions that allow
workers to work, think, socialise and collaborate in a way that works best for them.
Many employees may find that they like to stay active throughout the day in order to remain
focused and motivated at work. Designed to support active sitting, Modern Office offers a selection of active seating options that
encourage the user to move during prolonged sitting periods. As well as this, workers may find it beneficial to use a height adjustable
desk so that they can move between sitting and standing positions during the day. This type of furniture encourages mental and physical
health for workers as they also allow the user to burn excess energy and keep active instead of remaining seated for hours on end.
Technology has quickly become an integral part of modern work culture. During the Covid-19 pandemic, technology such as video conferencing and personal laptops have allowed for businesses to continue to operate effectively and efficiently during challenging circumstances. It has also created the option to work remotely, giving staff greater control over their work-life balance. Investing in up-to-date modern technology ensures that staff can continue to work and remain connected to their team regardless of their location or any challenges that may arise.
Ultimately an effective office environment design should be centred around the teams working within them and what workers need in order to be most comfortable and productive. Organisations that take the time to achieve a balance between the needs of their staff and the needs of the organisation itself, will see a boost in efficiency, staff wellbeing and overall productivity.
