Are in the artistic industry, or do you just want your employees to brainstorm creative solutions to any problem that comes up? Pretty much any business needs creativity to succeed, and there are many ways to design your office space to inspire outside-the-box thinking.
Nix the idea a desk needs to be available for every single worker. Now that mobile technology has pretty much taken over modern workplaces, many employees are much more comfortable with sharing closer spaces with coworkers. It encourages collaboration and helps employees avoid feeling isolated. Your budget will thank you, too!
Consider creating nooks for private time and open areas for collaboration. Everyone needs to zero in and focus at times, so nooks provide more private spaces for employees to get down to business. But you can’t expect employees to always be “in the zone,” and collaboration is important, too, so create some open spaces for coworkers to develop a working rapport with each other. Bonus point for free, good coffee.
Let there be light! Many people consider access to light an important factor when choosing a home, so why should work be any different? Sunlight has many health benefits and has been shown to boost creativity. Who wants to work in a dingy dungeon, anyway? No one, that’s who.
