The home office is becoming more important then ever. This year has seen more people begin to work from home then ever before, thanks in part to the effects of the pandemic. And whilst this certainly does not mean we will be saying goodbye to the traditional office any time soon, it does that your home workspace needs to be able to handle the tasks of day to day work.

Using smart, compact design, you can have a hub of productivity and creativity to help you bring your best work each day. From organized, neat filling cabinets to allow for clutter free workspaces to comfortable, ergonomic deckchairs, your home office can provide you with the perfect environment for your working day.

Once held for only the customer reception, lounge furniture has become one of the most prominent and interesting trends. Featuring in many new offices and workplaces, comfortable and colourful lounge furniture helps bring out a great working environment, be it in meeting rooms, cafes or relaxation areas.

Using lounge furniture, a more residential feel can be established. This combination between home and the office has given birth to the concept of ‘Resimercial’, the halfway of residential and commercial.

This combination is one that is tied into the needs of the modern workplace, where the versatility and flexibility must match the demands of the work environments. Dining tables that convert to a classic conference room table or a comfy sofa for napping on between meetings. With lounge furniture, an office can meet whatever demand needed.

You need what will bring the best out of your work, keeping you focused on the task at hand whilst being comfortable and practical, be it for a full workforce or a home office.

One of the main aspects you need from your office is that it has your health in mind. If your workspace is uncomfortable you will not be able to focus and both short term and long term health problems can occur from sitting uncomfortably.

That is where items such as sit-stand desks come in. Able to raise up from their usual height, they allow you to work to whatever you need. For us at Connect Resource, this is important to who we are. We design, create and maintain with the health of people in mind, so that we can help you have the best office possible.

In our mission statement, we say that “we design, create, and maintain beautiful, functional work spaces”. These aren’t just words. To us, each job is making sure that the offices we create provide a comfortable and practical space for work to flourish in. And a key aspect of that is ergonomics.

When it comes to the office, you need a place that fits to capabilities of each person using it, that can function in all situations. Sit-stand desks are a great example of this. Able to switch heights in a matter of moments, they fit to the user, allowing them to be more comfortable, relaxed and engaged with their job.

At Connect Resource we strive to make intelligent, functional and innovative workspaces. And with smart uses of ergonomic design, help the health of the people who work in them.

From removing the usual commute to being able to grab as many snacks and coffees as you wish, working from home has some nice perks.

However, you do find yourself at one big downside. Your office setup you are used to is now gone. And to be at your best work, you need to create an environment that you enjoy working in, one where you are focused and happy in.

And that does not just come from a motivational poster or a scented candle. The impact of the right office furniture can have a far bigger effect then you could first think on the workspace. From the right office chair to the perfect desk, it can help you fully concentrate and getting you working from home at your best.

Offices are the heart of companies. The beat and rhythm of them are instrumental to not only the professionals who work in them, but to every aspect of a business. From a great working environment to a strong social bond between colleagues, it all stems back to the office.

And to say the last 4 months have messed with that rhythm slightly is a massive understatement. In the unprecedented times we have all navigated, one of the many things disrupted is the workplace flow. And whilst thousands across the world have adapted to the differing work conditions, we are finally getting back to that office life.

From discussing the current project, to pitching new ideas and entertaining clients, offices are beginning to hum with life again. We can all begin to get back to the office rhythm we have missed, allowing for routines to built again.

When it comes down to it, the office is the hub of a company. It is the main information centre, providing every update and helping plan every move. And when you take it away, it can often be hard for both employee and boss to keep everything running as smooth.

The office supervises and evaluates each member of staff and makes sure that the company is heading towards each goal and target. And as it is taken away, it can often be hard to keep fully on track and on task. With everyone in the same building, it can be easy to make sure messages and updates are passed between each worker, allowing for quick communication and instant course corrections should something arise.

However, with so many working from home, it sadly lacks the structure that is provided in the office. Often employees can only communicate with their higher ups at singular points in each day, with jobs that would normally only take a day stretching to several as messages take time to get to each person. The office space allows for smooth and dynamic working environment, that allows for each worker to be at their best and keep the company moving forward.
