Here at Haynes Group, we believe that YOU can design a productive, inspiring workplace space and we’re here to help! So, what impactful aspects go into the design of a productive area:
1. Open Floorplan
It is no secret that open-office floorplans are becoming more popular. In addition to looking aesthetically pleasing, this open floor plan is also proven to increase productivity. More and more offices are scrapping the cubicle layout and providing employees with an open area that provides natural light and direct communication to their coworkers. Removing these barriers reduces feeling of isolation and encourages team collaboration! So next time you are designing a future office space, consider an open floorplan!
2. Paint Color
Paint color plays a huge role in how an office functions. Color impacts the workplace atmosphere and because of this, more and more businesses are choosing colors that amplify creativity, productivity, energy, and creativity. This will not only promote positive attitudes from employees, but also from your clients. Here are some examples of colors that inspire and attract efficiency:
a. Red – enhances a workplace while also increasing blood flow and boosting heart rate, two factors that magnify hard work.
b. Blue – creates a calm and exciting space for employees
c. Yellow – brings a sense of happiness and increases positivity
With that said, do not be afraid to give your office a pop of color through accented walls, logos, etc!
3. Lighting
Much like paint colors, lighting is not something a lot of people consider when creating a successful space, but in reality, it is more impactful than we think. In terms of artificial lighting, LED is the way to go. This type of light is the closest to natural light. Additionally, LED lasts longer than other lighting options. Creating a bright work environment, rather than a dark one, allows employees to feel more awake. Think about it like this; when it’s a dark and gloomy day, you find yourself tired, whereas a sunny day you find yourself happy and inspired to take on the day!
Your office reflects your company culture and values. At Haynes Group, we understand this better than anyone. That’s why our team works diligently to understand your brand and what makes your employees tick. That way we can design and build a space that will foster productivity, happiness, and company pride.
