The meeting room has evolved. From a simple boardroom table and chairs, to a functional office space that has been intelligently designed and integrated with smart tech and innovation.
So, how important is a well designed board room?
There are a multitude of ways to integrate design factors into boardrooms. With this becoming an integral part for a business, how will you integrate these factors into your next boardroom layout?
Natural Lighting
Natural light is a must for any office space. With a brightened room, employees will be more inclined to absorb all key points within meetings. With this said, we recommend limiting the curtains and allowing the natural light to fill the boardroom. Studies have proven that a well lit office promotes a healthy wellbeing amongst staff and leads to gains in productivity. Such as a Cornell study that showed that workers exposed to natural light experienced an 84% drop in headaches, eyestrain, and blurred vision.
Technology
A well designed boardroom will incorporate the latest technology, like an interactive whiteboard, to have presentations run smoothly. Power accessories such as our Executive Power Box or the Blinky are stylish accessories to add to the boardroom for employees to easily use the room and have their presentation flow without disruption.
Plants
The benefits of plants in the office space can not be underestimated. By adding plants into the boardroom, there is an immediate increase in productivity, reduced stress levels, improved health and wellbeing and therefore creates a more appealing space. Check out our previous blog on the advantages of plants in an office environment.
Table Shapes
How does your table design complement workflow? Will there be large meetings that would benefit a round table design or mainly presentations that are more dynamic and focused with a rectangular design?
All of these design decisions should be taken into consideration in the design process so clients are able to focus on goals and relax knowing their new office space is complementary to the entire company workflow.
