Modular Furniture
Storage
Modular furniture can be useful in collaborative areas. Such furniture can easily be moved around depending on the current requirements, making spaces such as conference rooms much more flexible. Some furniture even includes integrated power modules to keep cables tucked out of sight.
If you need access to extra tables and chairs for meetings or temporary employees, consider furniture that is easy to store, such as furniture that can be stacked or folded.
Standing Tables Standing meeting tables can accommodate more people and take up less space than traditional conference tables. On top of the size difference, using a standing table will encourage people to move around more. Studies have also shown that standing can reduce the length of a meeting by a quarter, improving productivity.
Light Colours Dark colours can make a room feel smaller. Instead, opt for light furniture such as white tables or desks to make the room feel bigger and more open.
