#DESIGNING A HOME OFFICE QUESTIONS PROFESSIONAL#
In order for employees to give their all, they have to be able to balance their personal and professional lives. IS THERE SPACE FOR PRIVACY OR COLLABORATION WHEN NEEDED? Therefore, understanding what’s important to your employees will pay off in dividends down the road. If you ask, they will tell – and don’t assume one department’s answers reflect that of the rest of the company. WHAT DO EMPLOYEES ENJOY MOST ABOUT THE SPACE? Do the departments who work most closely sit near each other? Are pathways cleared and safe? In addition to looking good, the design should also solve problems. Improving functionality should be key with your redesign so if this is what your IT department looks like, it’s probably time for a new space plan – one that keeps junk tidy and includes cord and wire management. HOW IS THE CURRENT LAYOUT WORKING FOR YOU? With that in mind, sharing business goals and objectives opens the conversation to consider interior renovations that work in parallel with your business objectives. Changing office interiors also gives companies momentum for other changes they may be considering.

WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO ACHIEVE?įor starters, understanding what you are trying to accomplish with your newly renovated space positions you for better pre-planning conversations.


And that starts with some simple questions we need to have answered. Well, maybe a little bit of it does, but believe it or not a lot of designer inspiration comes from you, our clients. Planning – underrated and overlooked. When it comes to design, a lot of non-designers think Creatives just walk into a room and Poof! Shoot out ideas for a space from their heads! I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it doesn’t really happen like that.
