Your biggest complaint about work might be that is that it doesn’t feel like home. More than ever, the workplace has the versatility to adapt to a cozier and comfier place for you to log in and log on.
The ability to gather and collaborate is easily accomplished with an overstuffed couch. Modular sofas are relaxing. Aw well as plush enough for a crowd. Also, they’re suitable for a solo stretch, modular sofas have a familiar feel that functions in the office.

Building a Home in the Office
Rather than seating employees at rows of identically sterile-looking desks with matching plain-Jane chairs, employers are creatively curating sophisticated shared desks and collaborative conference tables with warm and unique finishes. A pop of color on the wall is a surprisingly upscale way to put your filing organization to good use. Put a monitor in between you, and some sleek and ergonomically designed chairs for added comfort, and it’s almost like being at home.
>> Make your employees feel like family with specific design elements.
Colleagues facing each other, a cup of coffee in hand, and a laptop between them is the equivalent of sharing family supper at the table. Enter the workplace community table. With light wood, spacious tabletops, and the option to sit on chairs or benches, it’s a space conducive to team building and productive conversation.
>> Your office breakroom doesn’t have to look like an office breakroom.
The office used to be an uninviting space where we produced, rather than created. Not open for self-expression, the colors, textures, and surfaces were cold and unwelcoming. The more it becomes like home, the more comfortable we become, and the more we express and collaborate.
