    The Collaborative Workspace

    It is now widely accepted that the needs of Knowledge Workers (whose main capital is knowledge, who like to work in a non-routine, divergent and creative manner) are different from the more established, fixed site, workstation-centred Process Worker.

    ‘Smartworking (from Orangebox) leverages the full potential of the technology-enabled office that allows us to work anywhere and trend away from individual focused work. It encourages us to move towards a workplace that meets the needs of both a transient and fixed site workforce’

    Karris offer a range of ‘nomadic’ style furniture which creates the preferred environment for a Knowledge Worker, whilst giving breakout space and ad-hoc meeting areas for the more Process driven worker; the collaborative workspace.

    High workspace costs put pressure on businesses to make the best use of available space, so multi-purpose rooms and flexible furniture is high on the agenda when creating new offices. By reducing the footprint of hot-desks, creating shared storage hubs, and using bench desks that require less floorspace than traditional workstations, businesses can make more efficient use of their premises.

    If you are thinking of re-locating, maybe it is time to look at your current workspace in a different light, and consider refurbishing instead; often by updating your furniture and taking a fresh approach to how your business operates, you can create useable space that previously did not exist.
