At Morgan & Morgan, we understand that planning a new office is an exciting opportunity to create a space that not only reflects your company’s brand and culture but also improves productivity and employee wellbeing. As specialists in office interiors, design, and installation, we’re here to guide you through every step of the process. Here are some key things to consider when planning your new office design and how we can help make your vision come to life.
Understand Your Needs and Goals
Before you dive into the design process, it's important to understand the specific needs and goals of your organisation. Try asking yourself the following questions:
• What work will be carried out here?
• How many employees will the space need to accommodate?
• What kind of workstations do you need (For example, individual desks or collaborative spaces)?
• What are your storage requirements?
At Morgan & Morgan, our experienced team will work closely with you to assess your needs through direct consultations, ensuring that the final design supports your business’s operations and goals.
Budget and Timeline
Establishing a clear budget and timeline is essential for keeping your project on track. Your budget will dictate the scope of your design options so it’s important that you make sure to factor in all potential costs before agreeing to a design proposal. A realistic timeline can be agreed upon in initial consultations so that you can feel prepared and ready to plan ahead.
Space Utilisation and Layout
Efficient space utilisation is key to creating a functional office. A good place to start is by mapping out the available space and determining how different areas will be used. Here are some key spaces to consider:
Workstations: Decide on the number and type of workstations based on your team’s working style. Open-plan offices foster collaboration, while private offices may be better suited for roles requiring concentration and confidentiality. This is also the time to decide whether you want to try hot desking or if you would rather assign desks.
Meeting Rooms: Ensure you have enough meeting rooms of various sizes to accommodate different types of gatherings, from large team meetings to one-on-one discussions.
Storage: Plan for sufficient storage to keep the office organised and clutter-free. This will help to motivate staff and keep processes easier to stick to.
Our team are experts in creating efficient layouts that can be tailored to your specific needs. Our designs maximise your space’s potential, ensuring every square foot is used effectively.
Sustainability
Sustainable office design is not only good for the environment but can also enhance employee well-being and reduce operational costs. It’s time to consider incorporating eco-friendly materials, energy-efficient lighting, and waste reduction practices into your office.
Here at Morgan & Morgan, we are always committed to sustainability. As well as offering a range of eco-friendly design options to help you create an environmentally responsible office, we repurpose old furniture, embracing the principles of reuse, recycle, and repurpose to give new life to beloved pieces and reduce waste.
