Many of us spend the majority of our week in an office.
So making sure that they are places that evoke optimum productivity as well as employee well-being is vital
.And where it’s said that the employees make the business, impressive facilities make an office!
As we’ve explored in previous posts, efficient office space is the key to not only a happy team but a productive and successful workflow. But what are the key facilities that make an amazing space for your business?
As Commercial Property experts, Bolton Birch are equipped with the experience and knowledge that helps them identify 5-star workspaces and the facilities that make them so. So, here are our top 5 necessary facilities for top-quality, modern offices.
Separate Meeting Rooms
Although open-plan offices are currently on trend for many modern workspaces, separate meeting rooms are a definite, sought-after feature. Not only does it allow you some privacy for team and client meetings, but also allows you to further demonstrate your brand and professionalism.
Reception / Lobby
A Reception or lobby is deemed a very attractive feature for a busy modern office; especially those that allow for a team that can greet your clients and employees and offer further support and guidance.
An office reception not only helps to make a great first impression with potential clients and employees but can allow a level of organisation due to the communication between your office and the front desk, as well as overall safety and security.
Security
As well as a staffed reception area, there are plenty of other office building features that promote your safety and security – features we tend to market to clients who are searching for the best possible space for their business.
From CCTV, keycode/card access and even 24 hr site management – the best offices are the ones that make your safety its top priority.
Break Area
In previous blog posts, we have explored the importance of finding the right balance between work and play, especially when looking to maintain your team’s well-being. That said, one feature to always be on the lookout for when searching for the best possible office is efficient break/communal areas.
This will not only show your employees how much you prioritise their well-being but will allow others to see your business as one that respects and admires its employees, as well as recognises the importance of a well-balanced work environment.
