As years pass, design trends often change—even in the realm of office furniture. Such styles change due to many factors out of our control, as a furniture dealer. And as new trends begin to take shape, our industry must develop the latest and greatest to stay ahead of the competition and give clients the type of office designs and layout they crave.
Here’s a glimpse of some of the new office design trends you can expect in 2019:
- Eclectic Spaces: In today’s work environment, people want the freedom to choose where they work for specific tasks throughout the day. In order to give employees this option, companies require flexible office spaces and furniture that allow for both collaboration and privacy.
- Well-Being Spaces: Of course the health and wellness of your employees are always a top priority, but this year, it’s an event bigger trend! In fact, recent studies are showing that people with higher levels of well-being are healthier, more creative, feel less pain, and are better at problem solving.
- Design for Experience:These spaces include coffee bars, open spaces, and yoga studios. Spaces like this allow you and coworkers to interact on non-work-related tasks. It also gives your team the opportunity to decompress and refresh, all at the same time.
- Technology Integration: You probably knew this one was coming! Incorporating technology throughout the office, whether through wireless charging pads for cell phones and tablets or including Bluetooth-enabled standing desks.
- Biophilic Design: Nature is a must-have when considering the redesign of an office space. This addition could be through a breathe wall, flowers, or even images of the outdoors.
- Abstract Patterns: Solid tan walls are a thing of the past. This new trend is throwing an abstract pattern on a statement wall to make the room pop and feel more comfortable and friendlier. If you’re not able to commit to a patterned wall, try using some abstract patterned throw pillows or a rug to mix up the basic solid patterns.
