How to create a flexible office space that meets all your needs

In an ideal world, you’d have an office with ample space and all the features you could possibly want. In reality, you might have had to make significant compromises in terms of square footage and general design when choosing your working area. The good news is, a few simple items of office furniture could help you to create a flexible environment that ticks all of your boxes.

Screens

Open plan offices represent an efficient use of space, but they can quickly get too noisy, and some workers don’t like the lack of privacy on offer in these environments. If you face such problems in your work area, you can turn to office screens for a quick fix. These simple and inexpensive products can be used in a range of ways to ensure your environment better suits your needs. They help to limit volume levels and they offer workers greater privacy. These solutions are highly flexible too. For example, you can use desk screens to separate off individual workstations. This can be especially handy if your employees spend a lot of time on the phone. Floor screens, meanwhile, can be an effective way to contain different teams within your office. You can even choose different screens to colourcode zones in your work area and to make it easier for people to identify different departments. Room dividers can also offer you a quick and effective means of creating additional meeting space. If you don’t have the luxury of a separate room for company gatherings, interviews, pitches, appraisals and so on, you can simply cordon off a section of your office using these partitions. We offer a variety of office screens in different colours, sizes, styles and materials. For maximum sound absorbency, you can select versions finished with padded foam.

Fold-up furniture

Furniture that folds up and can be neatly stored away when not in use can also help you to create a more flexible working environment. For example, space saving collapsible tables can be neatly tucked away in cupboards when you don’t need them and then brought out for meetings, presentations and so on. You can choose from an impressive selection of foldable tables, including height adjustable and modular versions. We also sell foldable chairs that can be stored with ease.

Use your imagination

With the help of foldable furniture and room dividers, you can ensure your office meets each and every one of your practical requirements. The key is to use your imagination and see past any problems to the myriad possibilities that your workspace offers. Even if you’re short on square footage, you shouldn’t struggle to design a practical and attractive space that fulfils your requirements. All that’s needed is a little creativity and the right resources.
