Nothing is worse than going to work for 8-10 hours each day and finding a boring, uninspired office. It can be hard to decorate an office space, especially when you have to please two parties. Your office space should be welcoming and enjoyable for employees and visitors. However, it must also look professional. The most important thing to consider when decorating your office interior is whether it will inspire and make you feel at ease. We have put together some tips to help you decorate your office space at an affordable price.
Color scheme:
A color scheme for your office space can be both easy and stylish. It is a good idea to choose two main colors and one minor shade. Shades can be used to shade things like coffee mugs, pens and office accessories on tables or desks in the dominant colors. The minor shade can be used to shade small objects such as paper clips and other small objects.
Wall colors:
Paint the walls of the office in a way that is representative of your business. Don’t be afraid to use accent walls and bold colors. Different colors may be more appropriate depending on the industry. You can choose walls with more personality if your business employs designers or other creative professionals. It is safer to choose neutral colors if your business is located in a less creative industry. Painting walls won’t cost you a lot. However, make sure you choose high-quality paint that will last for years to avoid having to redecorate your office every so often.
Decorate your walls
A dull office can give off a feeling of disorientation and it can also affect the energy of your staff. You can add some beautiful framed photos and paintings to your wall. Local artists could be invited to hang their art on your walls. This will give you free office decor, and also allow them to get more exposure. You can also find paintings and photos at a discount from many retailers.
Get rid of all your clutter
Clear desks are conducive to a clear head. Clear your desk at least once per week and put any items that you don’t use very often in a drawer. You can store items that you use frequently but not enough to leave out in a pencil drawer on your desk. This will allow you to quickly grab the items you need and keep them off your desk. These drawers are typically $50 and well worth the investment. A few photos of family and friends can be added to a frame that matches your office’s colors.
Add a chair mat:
These mats not only protect your flooring, carpet, linoleum or tile floor from the pounding feet of your desk chair, but also add style to your office. Bamboo mats are more durable than standard rubber mats and add an interesting look to your office. They are typically a little more expensive than rubber mats, but will last for a longer time than the regular rubber ones. Bamboo chair mats can last between 8-10 years, while rubber mats may last 2 to 3 years before cracking.
A stylish chair for the office:
Many people believe that Ikea or office depot will be cheaper options for office chairs. These chairs are not only ugly in design, but also won’t last for very long. You should choose an ergonomic chair that will provide the best support for you and your body. This will help prevent serious injuries that could result from sitting in a chair that doesn’t offer enough support. A good ergonomic office chair can cost upwards to $200 but it will last many years. Most chairs are also stylish and attractive. Office chairs can be thought of as a car purchase. You expect it to last a long time, so you’ll spend more money to ensure that your chair looks great and is safe. The same applies to an office chair. They are less expensive at $20,000, but you spend more time in them every day.
Make your workplace more environmentally-friendly:
Depending on your space, a small or large potted flower will enhance the office’s atmosphere. Before putting a plant in your office, consider how much light it will need. Fake plants can also be purchased wholesale at a reasonable price.
Although it is not common to look forward to going to work every day, this is a fact that we have no choice. We do have the power to make our workplace a better place to live. Working means being away from your family, friends, and all other things you love. These tips will make your day more enjoyable and help you to pass the time more quickly.
