Promote creativity in the workplace

Take a look around the places that you frequently visit. What do you consider interesting about these areas, and what draws your attention? Why do you go back there? Many people will admire the space that they are surrounded by in everyday life, but ignore these very principles in the workplace; the place where they spend a large amount of their lives.

At Karris, we specialise in creating work spaces that inspire the people that use them. This is very important. Workers that feel valued and are comfortable in their environment are proven to be more productive and happier in their job.

Refurbishing your office is therefore not just about creating the right impression for your customers, it is also about providing a space that will inspire and impress your employees.

So how is this achieved? It’s not always about bold colours and the latest technology. We provide zoned areas in every office where possible. Much like the layout of a city or town, an office has to cater for the various needs of people during different times of the working day.

By placing small breakout areas within the main office areas, we are creating zones away from the tasking areas that not only provide space to relax and enjoy a cuppa, but also promote ad-hoc meetings and informal chats with colleagues. This is essentially space that can produce the most creative thinking, and the most constructive discussions. Zoned areas can overlap in their function, and this is often the most efficient way of planning an office space.

Many company owners and managers are surprised by the results when existing offices are re-planned to promote more collaborative and creative ways of working.

Investing in a well planned and modern office can have many benefits. Take at look at some of these examples to see how your next office space could look
