Planning a meeting room
Meetings don't always have to be boring! Getting the meeting room right can make you (and your team) more productive. It can also be inspirational, not just for your colleagues, but your customers and clients too. Don't be afraid to try something different.
Prioritize
First decide if this is an internal meeting room or one that your customers and clients will use. That will help dictate the overall feel of the room.
Get seated
Instead of going for a normal meeting room table and chairs, think about using more informal, comfy chairs and creating a more lounge-type feel?
Make it scalable
Portable seating that can be stacked away in the corner or closet will help make your meeting area scalable when extra guests turn up. For a more informal meeting area, cushions or pouffes are perfect ideas for extra guests.
Add some light
Lighting is essential to the look and function of any room. But it's also a useful way to decorate and add warmth. Use lights to focus attention on artwork, to highlight architectural features and to set a mood in a waiting or meeting room. Our light solutions come in all shapes and sizes, and always at affordable prices.
Add display area
Fill up an empty wall with wall-mounted shelves. This provides a dramatic visual effect, as well as creating new display space. Corner bookcases can make use of space that's usually wasted in small spaces and around columns.
Clear up
Use racks to store magazines, books and files and leave the table for working.
