A man is known by what he wears, and a man who runs a business is known by the way he furnishes his office. Office furniture, like clothing, is not just a thing of use. It can have beauty and soul. You may remember the office of Marlon Brando as the Godfather in the film of the same name. It is a dimly lit office in which he reclines on a weathered rust colored chair, stroking his cat, and speaking words that spell havoc to the disfavored. It is an office, which exudes power and which has literally grown out of the man. There are companies with more money than is good for them in a hurry to scale the ladders of status that invest fortunes buying famous paintings. Perhaps they want you to know they are people of taste, not just bagfuls of money.
You may remember the office of the Mafioso played by Marlon Brando in Godfather with its dark lighting and the dark brown weathered chair, the seat of power from whence the orders for bump-offs originated. It is certainly the picture of an office that has grown around a man.
Functionality, beauty and comfort are the things one needs to keep in mind. Since furniture, next to the building itself, is a major expenditure, and one not easy to undo and alter, you really need to put on your thinking cap, and see it form every possible angle before you decide.
Take the example of a computer workstation. How many are the groans and invectives that have come out from their occupants at the end of the day. Human spines simply did not evolve to bend over a keyboard from morn to eve. So furnishers, have a heart, especially when it comes to chairs. Here is a thing where ergonomic design must supercede prettiness and even cost.
easy on the body. Money spells vulgarity as well as taste. Furnishing an office is a matter of intelligence, taste and humaneness. Take a simple matter like computer workstations. Sitting on a computer for a number of hours is not an activity nature has evolved us towards and how much thought and consideration has gone into its design will become apparent to the employees sooner rather than later. This may be a truism but the chair is the thing you have to give your closest attention to. That is what a human bottom is going to be supported on and a back, that most vulnerable item of anatomy, is going to lean against.
Equally to be considered is the relative positioning of the workstations. Do you want people to talk to each other or do you want them like dummies glued to their papers or key-boards or whatever it is? It depends on your business philosophy as well as the nature of business but there is an optimum separation where people do not unnecessarily breath down the backs of each other nor are separated by light years.
Delve into your plans and form an image of your office-to-be. Then if you explore the market place, you are more than likely to find furniture that you built in your waking dream. Storage spaces are best built to order since the needs are highly company specific.
