Trends in Modern Office Furniture

Published: Mar 14, 2016

Modern design has spread its roots. Originating during the second half of the 20^th century, modern design has spread to architecture, fashion and furniture alike. Simple and more geometrical than classical or traditional designs, it is far more utilitarian than its predecessors. So, it’s no surprise that modern design is preferred in places where productivity maximization is a priority.

Modern furniture has not only found its way into the workspace, but due its aesthetically appealing look, is taking over waiting rooms and lunchrooms too.

Nicole Groshek from National Business Furniture shares some impressive ways modern furniture has integrated itself into the modern office.

Now Trending: Modern Office Furniture

Sleek and sophisticated furniture is here to stay, and we’re not just talking about in your home. Due to its attractive look, modern furnishings are only gaining in popularity in offices all over the world. Modern office design creates an air of professionalism through minimalism, focusing on thin profiles and mixed materials. It’s a fashion statement that can be seen in every corner of an office, no matter how large or small the business may be. Here are some of the ways we’ve seen modern office furniture implemented in recent years.

In a private office. Whether you’re working in a large corporate corner office or a small space in your home, you have plenty of options when it comes to choosing a modern collection for your private workspace. One common trend is mixing materials, which most often comes in the form of furniture with both wood grain and metal elements. Because most modern office collections feature table desks with a slim outline, you may want to consider adding a modesty panel to your main work surface. When it comes to filing and storage, consider display cabinets and bookshelves for a more airy, open look, and go with cabinetry that has sleek metal drawer and door pulls. If it’s convenient filing you need, try adding one or two mobile pedestal to your workspace that can be pulled nearby when needed and pushed away when not. See full post here

Office Furniture: Laminate And Veneers

Depending on your budget and preferences, you can choose between two certain types of furniture for your office – laminated and veneered. Modern laminates are durable and come in many designs, but lack the finesse and warmth of real wood. Veneers are sheets of real higher quality wood of varying thickness. Furniture made of cheaper wood or plywood can look rich and charming with the application of veneers.

Choosing between veneers and laminates can be quite tricky if you don’t know what makes them apart.

Mary Sargeant from National Business Furniture has quite a few tips in case it confounds you:

Veneer or Laminate?

Years ago, in a much different environment, than I work in now, a coworker said, “We spend more time with each other at work than we do with our families— I’m glad I like you guys.” How true, I thought. I still think so today, in my corporate office environment. Unless you work with your spouse or teach in the school that your children attend, it is likely that you spend more waking hours in close contact with coworkers than with your family.

Same goes for your office furniture. Even if you sit in the same spot on the couch at home to put your socks on in the morning and watch a show or two before the news at night, you still can’t top the number of hours you sit in your office chair or use your desk or filing cabinet.

At your workplace, if you are a decision-maker or influencer concerning office furniture purchases, there is a lot to consider when you make the leap to new furniture. You’ll be using it every day for years to come, so it needs to be aesthetically pleasing, and functional for the long haul. Not to mention durable. I mean, even the graceful among us occasionally slam a drawer or roll their chair on the edge of their desk once in a while, right? I do tend to use my chair as a transportation device. Watch out if you happen to be in its trajectory. See full post here:

Productivity Hacks: Exercise

Consider this: your employees spend hours sitting at their desks. For most office workers, this amounts to about 180-230 hours a month spent sitting, and about 2100-2800 hours a year! Such a sedentary lifestyle goes against the natural modus Vivendi and inevitably results in health issues. Poor health among your employees, to put it nicely, is not very good for the productivity of your organization. Luckily, this trouble can be easily avoided.

There are many fixes being talked about currently, including a migration to standing desks, but not a lot of them deal with the simple solution – exercise! Exercise is healthy for you, but how do you fit a workout schedule in the office deadlines and cubicle space of your employees?

Well, take a look at this article by Carey Goldberg on the CommonHealth website for a complete answer:

The Office Corner Workout: A Dozen Quickie Exercises You Can Do In Your Cubicle

No, you didn’t read the headline wrong. This is not the “corner office workout,” for the elite who occupy spacious private offices. This is the “office corner workout” for cubicle-dwelling plebes who occupy space only as wide as our arm-spans, and pop up like prairie dogs to confer with each other.

In our class, there’s often not enough floor space to do a push-up or a crunch without risk of being run over by an oblivious colleague’s office chair. But here, Rick DiScipio, assistant manager of Boston University’s FitRec Center, demonstrates the minimalist glory of the simple but powerful moves we can do at or near our desks. (If, that is, we can also establish a workplace culture that accepts our colleagues’ quiet exertions.) See full post here

Research suggests that breaking this sedentary routine for a few minutes of physical activity can boost the physical as well as mental well-being of employees. You’ll be surprised how effectively it augments the productivity of your organization. Another thing that helps increase office productivity is proper furniture. Offices that use well-built and ergonomic furniture report a higher performance rate per employee.
