Key Redesigning Points For Better Office Productivity

Not many people would believe that physical workspaces affect the morale, health, creativity, and productivity of the employees. Studies have proved that nicely designed offices decrease mental load and enhance focus.
As an average full-time employee spends 1800 hours working every year in their office, it is your responsibility to provide them with a workplace that positively impacts their physical and mental self.
If plain walls, unattractive interiors, and cramped workstations perfectly depict your office scene, it is time for you to consider an office renovation. It may appear like a big task, but if planned diligently, you can remodel your office without any hassle.
Here is how to redesign your office for better productivity.

  • Create a robust plan

You cannot design a space unless you know what you want to accomplish. Before you call an interior remodeling contractor or designer, determine your expectations with the new workspace.
Sit down with a pen and paper and jot down the major problems your employees face day in and day out. Analyze your office and determine the special needs of your office. Take account of what’s lacking, what needs a facelift, and most importantly, how it is going to affect your employees.
Taking the input of your employees will work because at the end of the day, more than anyone, they are going to use the space. Plan a quick survey and chalk out a plan based on the results. With it, you will know what’s necessary and what’s not needed.

  • Understand work styles and personalities

A workspace is a diverse ecosystem. It comprises people of different perspectives, temperaments, and attitudes. Some prefer working in a collaborative environment, while some are more productive when working in quiet spaces. Study your workforce and create a space that satiates the needs of one and all.
Creating a balanced workplace creates a space for collaborative meetings and small quaint spaces for people who prefer solitude while working.

  • Use a lot of colors

Most office spaces flaunt a muted color palette. While they work well with the ambiance, no rule book asks you to adhere to this trend.
It’s a well-known fact that colors impact mood. They retrieve different reactions from us. Use colors that create a positive vibe across the office.
Warm colors stimulate intensity and innovative thinking, while natural tones like blue and green enhance focus and efficiency.
Use colors according to work done in space.

Plants are known to reduce stress and noise levels and provide clean air. Having plants in the office is a great way of enhancing the aesthetics of your workspace while also insinuating a positive vibe.
Invest in some low-maintenance indoor plants and place them in your office. Plants go a long way in lifting mood and creating a happy atmosphere, often needed in workspaces where tense energies fill the air.

  • Create personalized spaces

A personalized workspace boosts productivity by manifolds. When an employee works in a space that vibes with their personality, they tend to work better. Hence, while redesigning your office, create an inviting space for your workforce.
You can do it in many ways -little trinkets placed on the work desk, personalized office decoration, etc., can be used to make a workspace more comfortable.
