Office Space Planning Considerations
Office Space Planning
One of the most exciting things about moving to a new office is designing and space planning the new office. It's a sure-fire way to feel motivated about your new office and begin to visualize how your new office might look.
Working with an Office Space Planner will ensure your organization's goals and objectives are identified and fully integrated into your new environment. They will take a close look at your company's working practices, inter-team relationships, office traffic flow, and IT requirements to determine the most suitable office space plan for your new office.
Here are some Office Space Planning issues to consider during the process:
Location of Workstations
Staff are legally required to have a set amount of office space per person. Use the Office Space Calculator to work out your requirements.
Alternative Workstation Solutions
Does everyone require their own workstation or would hot desking be an option in order to economize on office space?
IT Equipment
What is the best location for a centralized communication area for IT equipment such as copiers, printers and shredders? Ideally this should be positioned in a less conspicuous location so as not to look untidy and minimize noise.
Future Requirements
Who knows where your flourishing business will be in a few years time? But you need to bear this in mind when space planning your new office. There are more flexible space planning alternatives for you to consider; including fold-back partitioning that can divide and expand meeting rooms, and use of break out areas that can be easily re-configured for any future growth.
Natural Light
Position workstations to make best use of natural light. This not only enhances performance but can also save on utility costs.
Efficient Office Space Planning can re-energize your workforce, increase overall productivity and even save you money, so it is highly recommended you seek expert advice from an Office Space Planner in your area to help you achieve the very best results.
