Reception Sofas: Evolution Of Working Spaces

Reception Sofas: Where To Position Them In The Workspace
In recent years, workplaces have continually and rapidly evolved, innovation after innovation. Often, thanks to technology, work has become more flexible and mobility increased.
As a result, the absolute need for static positions for each employee has disappeared. The trend is now to use open spaces, equipped with technological devices (or smart IT objects) and recreational areas with the unavoidable sofa.
There are those who focus on “greening the office”, introducing elements such as hanging gardens, water games, bamboo or wooden partitions … It seems like “to be in nature” helps employees be quieter, happier and more creative. There are those who adopt the horizontal organization model, not only in leadership, but also in space planning. Facilitate collaboration between people with different roles in the same place.


Office Trends
We also often hear about smart office: which does not mean that the goal is to reduce the number of workstations. But rather a valuable contribution to rethink workspaces and thus the logic with which they are designed.
Recently, according to the Smart Working Observatory of the Politecnico di Milano, the most sought-after guiding principles are: flexibility, multifunctionality, acoustic intelligence, technology, building management, wellness services … Among these principles, the need to design and create spaces that can improve the quality of internal relations, be welcoming and therefore encourage meetings between colleagues. Reception areas with seating spaces, meeting rooms and break areas are strategic points for developing teamwork and encouraging communication in the office.
And then?
Of course, each workplace reflects specific aspects of your business but, on the other hand, “what works well” trends can apply to any project or office seating. Reserving spaces for collaborative work and relationships while ensuring greater privacy is an excellent solution because it focuses on office wellness.
