Architectural Office Design Trends That Support Productivity



Businesses want a lot from their buildings, from aesthetics that support their brand to designs that help them meet goals for growth and expansion. Commercial architecture in NJ and around the world is increasing its engagement with the goals of clients by including these great trends that actively enhance productivity.

  • Eliminating clutter: With forward-thinking architectural design, much of the distracting wiring and clutter of an office workplace can be hidden away to achieve a clean, seamless and calming aesthetic. This is especially important in open-plan and flexible office spaces, as clutter can quickly accumulate and pollute an entire department. These features are also great for future-proofing a workplace, by providing the space and structural openings needed to accommodate expansion and technological advances.
  • Nature: Bringing the natural world indoors and especially into the office environment is a big trend that is showing significant results for a wide range of top brands. Not only do natural materials, plants, rooftop gardens and other features help employees feel more relaxed, focused and happy, they also create elegant and interesting features that add character, interest and beauty to the workplace.
  • Collaboration, flexibility and expansion: Multi-use function areas, flexible spaces and non-traditional offices are all elements of a more productive and energetic way of doing business – and it’s facilitated directly through architectural design. With your architect’s input, you can create spaces that are the right size for your business needs, offer space and comfort, and can be adapted through non-permanent layouts as your needs grow and change.
  • Wellness: Industry leaders have increasingly found that the design and function of their building greatly impacts on the wellness of employees. By incorporating these concerns into the design of a building, businesses see a boost in productivity, engagement and brand loyalty, as well as a drop in absenteeism and staff turnover. These elements can be unique to your business, from having gym and casual lounge areas to wellness centers, jogging and bicycle paths, and roof gardens.

Hybrid Office Design: A Guide for Architects and Employers

Image
Hybrid office design is now standard practice across the board. Some companies still require employees to be in the office full-time, while many others offer a permanent hybrid work alternative.  Gallup  states that hybrid workers are, on average, coming into the office three days per week, which requires a rethink of modern office architecture. We need innovative office spaces to accommodate the diverse needs of hybrid work. That being said, our team of architects in NJ have put together a guide to hybrid office design based on the most recent commercial office additions to our portfolio. What Are Hybrid Work Models?    What are flexible and hybrid work models at their core? They link remote workers with on-site employees and include spaces such as home, the office, and a third space that could be a local coffee shop or a more ambitious spot like the beach.
