1. Make the most of light and space
Exposure to natural light can positively impact employees' mood and levels of productivity. Try to position desks close to windows or areas of natural light as far as possible, and ensure workstations are sufficiently spaced out to allow enough space for traffic flow.
2. Create Break out Spaces
Create relaxing and engaging break out spaces for your employees and visitors to meet and relax. Break out areas not only provide a more flexible alternative for meeting and breaks, they also encourage impromtu staff meetings and creativity and enhance your office environment.
3. Keep things tidy
A tidy office will help your business be more productive and organised. Everything should have a place and there should be a place for everything. Storage units are a must when designing your space, and these units should be organised and tidy too so items and files can be easily located.
