Coworking spaces and open plan office are intended to promote collaboration and communication, while still allowing for focus and separation when needed. A thoughtful layout and flexible interior solutions create a comfortable and creative workplace that increases productivity and well-being.
Flexible interior solutions for workstations and open spaces
Concentrated work, meetings, creative processes, teamwork and breaks – coworking spaces and open plan offices bring many functions and people together in one place. Use open spaces to encourage collaboration and flexible ways of working or divide them with screens or storage to create spatial layers and more secluded zones.
Adaptable, mobile furniture makes it easier to find the right balance between collaboration, focus and relaxation – and to reshape the spaces as needs and tasks change.
Paired with the Continue table, the sleek Bow chair is ideal for larger meetings – here with armrests that allow it to be hooked onto the edge of the table.
Ergonomics and acoustics for a well-balanced work environment
Office chairs and desks at workstations need to be ergonomic to use. In activity-based environments, adjustable tables and chairs are a perfect fit. Lower noise levels in open plan offices create a calmer workplace where employees are less stressed. Wall-mounted sound absorbers are therefore essential to reduce noise and hubbub. Booths or table screens at workstations can also improve acoustics and provide privacy, even if employees are only an arm’s length apart.
Carefully considered furniture and colours
Choose furniture and colours that suit the space and its needs. Standing tables and bar stools support activity-based work and encourage spontaneous meetings in touch-down areas. But comfortable seating where employees can recharge their batteries over a coffee is just as important as flexible workstations. Make room for coffee breaks in the open office and furnish with plants, paintings, comfortable sofas, pouffes and practical lounge tables.
Pulse storage cabinets with legs can also be used as tables in open spaces.
Furnish large, open spaces with the modular Ori sofa – offering well-developed comfort, integrated tables and power outlets, for seating suited to both work and meetings.
Colour brings life to the office – whether it’s a bold accent wall in a seating nook or practical wall storage that softens a corridor. A colour explosion or minimalist palette? Colours and tones are a matter of taste, but the choices you make shape the atmosphere and influence how a space feels. Work with contrasts to strike the right balance between energy and harmony in your use of colour. EFG offers a wide range of materials and colours – from chairs and sofas to tables and sound absorbers.
The Chat pedestal table with cross base can be used in touch-down spaces together with the Evo armchair.
