Whenever clients walk through your business doors, whatever greets them on the other side will influence how they see your company and its services. If what they find is a messy, disorganized space with haphazard colour scheme and broken window decorations, then they’ll attribute the same qualities to your business. That’s a pretty damaging mark against your company – one that might even make a client walk away and choose to do business with your competitor.
Now, let’s envisage a polished, tidy office with an inviting colour scheme and beautiful window decorations. Clients will feel welcome in this well-designed space, seeing it as an extension of your company – a visual representation of how you do business. If you’re willing to put the time and effort in creating such a hospitable environment, then likely you’ll put forth the same energy into the services that you provide.
In addition to affecting your business’ credibility, your interior design also has the power to influence your office’s productivity. A full-time employee spends at least 40 hours each week working for your company. Depending on their commitment to deadlines and their penchant for overtime, this number can stray closer to 60 hours a week. When so much of your employees’ time is spent in the office, it becomes almost a second home. It is, after all, the place they spend most next to their house or apartment.
People are more likely to work better when their workspace is comfortable and tidy. Much like your clients, your employees will be pleased to see the effort that you put in for their benefit. When employees realize that the company cares about them, then they’ll care about the business. This translates into a happy workforce that’s willing to put in time with your company. When these benefits are at stake, don’t make the mistake of winging your office’s interior design. Be sure to consider the effect of every single one of your design choices will have on your clients and employees. Lighting, colour schemes, and accessories are just a few pieces that, when properly co-ordinated, can create a calming, professional, and organized space.
What you put on your windows is another element to your design that shouldn’t be overlooked. How well they’re integrated into your space, how much light they let through, and how well they match your colour scheme should be taken into account when shopping for window coverings.
