Combination of old and new
Keeping the original floors, old windows and basic equipment, but at the same time using new, modern features and elements. This is one of the current trends in the design of office space that leads to cosiness, functionality and aesthetic comfort. Using old features is also in accordance with the current global trend of sustainability and recycling.
Shared desks
Some companies use shared desks and offices. These are not dedicated to specific people but to everybody. The workplace then becomes a co-working centre to which only employees of the given company or members of a particular team have access. This saves space, supports travelling and home office, and also saves money by not having a place reserved for someone who is in any case away most of the time.
Blocking with colours
Distinct colour surfaces that contrast with surrounding surfaces can transform an otherwise very ordinary and uninteresting shape into a unique and visually divided space. At the same time, colourfulness supports a game-like attitude, creativity and energy, so do not be afraid of using bold and contrasting colours.
Office as non-office
Some companies have started to advocate a highly original style in their headquarters, based on the idea that offices are designed so as not to look like offices. The history and original designation of the given space might be used, and often the work space can utilise features of the field of business of the given company. So offices might have the appearance of gardens, hotels, streets, old factories or libraries.
