One of the changes that impacted our life in these last months is the possibility of working from home. Only as a temporary measure at the beginning, research indicate that, now, over 70% of companies consider its implementation as a priority.
That is why, in a time where the lines between private and working spaces start to blur, offices become a place to foster employee’s motivation, social interaction and wellbeing.
Therefore, it is key to create warm and comfortable working spaces, that include areas to rest, meeting rooms, creativity corners and private rooms so that employees can feel like home.
Natural connection
Offices in the new post-pandemic reality will be biophilic spaces that boost the connection with nature by integrating elements from the exterior in the indoors decoration.
That is why it is becoming common to see rustic or untreated wood in offices around the world. These materials, in neutral hues, appeal to our roots and print a natural harmony touch in the space.
Offices with a unique identity
Because of the surge in remote work, we now spend less time at the office. For this reason, these spaces are starting to develop a familiar look that employees can relate to.
During these past months, they have become a place where people can meet and socialize face to face
That is why the usual impersonal office style is evolving towards a more emotional decoration. Using light, colors and textures, we can create new singular and recognizable environments designed to improve relationships between employees.
Warm and calm spaces
One of the objectives of the new offices is to care for the emotional wellbeing of their employees. To do so, they have to create spaces in which workers can feel comfortable and motivated.
Nobled Woods, such as oaks and walnuts, are becoming more common also in office decoration. Applied to walls and furniture, they bring comfort and a warm touch to the workplace.
It is also important to find areas in which employees can relax and escape from the “exterior noise” so they can take care of their emotional balance.
That is why, more and more, offices include areas decorated with neutral hues and light and lineal woods. These materials help us to feel calm so we can recharge batteries and keep ourselves motivated.
