A well-designed office or workspace can promote productivity, creativity, and collaboration. Therefore, there are some important factors and trends that interior designers recommend looking out for. Here, we share some of the most prominent advice and recommendations that can hopefully inspire you for your next interior design project and serve as a guideline to create inspiring, functional, and eco-friendly workspaces that promote both productivity and well-being.


Flexibility

An important element to consider is flexibility. Opt for modular furniture that can be rearranged so the room can be adapted to tasks and needs. Create multi-functional zones that can be used for various purposes, whether it requires quiet office work, meetings, or the opportunity to take a break.

Lighting

Regardless of the room's function, it is important to choose the right lighting. Utilize natural light as much as possible, for example by placing desks close to windows. Additionally, it is a good idea to think about the light source and choose LED lighting that can easily change the color temperature to mimic daylight and thus improve concentration.

Storage solutions

Another way to improve concentration that interior designers take into account is furniture with hidden storage solutions to keep the office tidy and organized. A tidy work environment can make a big difference for productivity.

Sustainable materials

In general, it is essential to choose sustainable, natural materials like wood, bamboo, and linen, which are biodegradable and have a low CO2 footprint. The entire focus on reducing one's carbon footprint is a central factor, and one way to reduce it by as much as 90% is to choose pre-owned furniture over new. By choosing recycled furniture, you can create a unique and soulful space while contributing to the green transition.

Indoor planting

Integrate plants in the office to improve air quality, reduce stress, and increase productivity. Plants can also function as natural room dividers, and green walls can bring nature indoors and create a more inspiring work environment.
