Six Ways to Renovate Your Commercial Office
Refresh Reception
Make an impression on new and loyal clients with a reception area that introduces safety and comfort. Carve out space creatively with appropriate signage and designated spots for temperature checks and hand sanitizer. Allow seating areas for those given the green light to go about business and those waiting. And, be sure you have clear instructions visible to everyone. Employers can be creative with their upgraded reception areas using branded colors, acrylic panels, and anti-microbial chairs.
Acoustic Office Phone Booths
With laminated safety glass and an acoustic felt interior for optimal acoustic performance, acoustic office phone booths are a beautiful and functional way to renovate the post-Covid office. This office furniture offers the perfect privacy, safety, social distancing solution. Also, they come equipped with an energy-efficient air circulation system that guarantees a fresh atmosphere for longer phone calls and meetings.
Touchless Flexible Lighting
Now that we’re accustomed to washing our hands more frequently, we’re more aware of how often we touch surfaces. Refresh your commercial office with touchless flexible lighting. Using remote, timed, and motion-detected lighting, enter and exit a room, and lights work without a single touch. Employees who have less direct contact with germs on light switches, for instance, are not as likely to become sick and miss work.
…after a long year, we all could use injections of color around us.
Inject Color
Nothing changes a commercial office space like color. And after a long year, we all could use injections of color around us. From adding fresh coats of paint to walls, cabinets, and trim, to purchasing new office furniture, there are copious ways you can brighten up the office.
Add safety to your renovation plan by outfitting your office with stunning curved workstations. This privacy style offers chic productive distancing and the option to choose the perfect color for your commercial office.
Clear Signage
We’ve all become accustomed to “enter only” and “exit only” signs and the “right way” and “wrong way” arrows. The directions are for our safety. And though they may have been strange at first, now they are commonplace.
Prepare your post-Covid commercial workplace with clear signage for employees indicating which hallway to use, preferred traffic for the front and back staircases, and how to move around the breakrooms.
Not everyone will come back to the office now that we know how productive we can be working from home.
Consider Technology
Not everyone will come back to the office now that we know how productive we can be working from home. Commercial offices with renovated conference rooms that include reconfigurable training tables and wall-mounted large monitors and cameras will be ideal spots for team collaboration. Quickly connecting meetings in a safe space, seated around an easy-to-clean table, will make concentrating on the tasks at hand a breeze.
A commercial office renovation is no longer just a refresh. For the post-Covid world, it provides the opportunity for so much more. When the team returns, don’t let it be to the “daily grind.” Instead, give them a better, safer, and happier place to work.
