Must Have Accessories to Promote Office Well-Being

August 13, 2019

The average person will spend over 90,000 hours at work during their lifetime, so ensuring one's well-being is nurtured in an office space is extremely important.

When planning or changing your office space, a small accessory can make a big difference. Here are a few of our favourites.

Logic Monitor Arms - Having the right ergonomic setup is an important part of encouraging healthy workplace practices. Part of this setup includes the addition of monitor arms to desk tops. Logic monitor arms can be used to mount one or more screens and can be set at custom heights to suit individual users ensuring long lasting comfort.

Planters - Introducing plants and greenery into a workspace has been one of the most effective ways to bring touches of nature into the office. Recent studies have shown that workers felt an improved sense of well-being when surrounded by biophilic elements. Our Globe, Universal and Trak planters are the perfect yet simple way to make plants a part of a workplace and can be added onto storage units or used in conjunction with our Trak workstation system.

Cushi - In addition to adding Logic Monitor Arms to your desk, our Cushi footrest completes this ergonomic set up. Created with health benefits in mind, Cushi prevents long and short-term health problems such as slow blood circulation, back tension and promotes proper posture.

Sparki - In a technological age, having power solutions easily available on your desk creates a more productive work lifestyle. Compact and sleek, our Sparki above desk power solution allows users access to a GPO and 2 USB ports.

The Benefits Of Lounge Spaces in Offices

July 4, 2019

With the unprecedented mobility offered by laptops, phones and tablets, one's ability to work anywhere and everywhere has led to the introduction of unconventional spaces. This includes lounge settings which are dispersed around an office, allowing employees to take a break from their normal workstation and spend time in a more casual environment. Distinguished areas like this have become a necessity for harnessing creativity, productivity and innovative thinking.

Here are 3 tips on how to effectively introduce lounge settings to your office:

  1. Comfort - Residential-style seating has become a popular shift in office aesthetics. Adding a comfortable lounge or soft chair encourages a relaxed atmosphere. Our Benj, Tex and Hush lounges feature a wool fabric upholstery and high density foam padding, offering a true palette of posture in the office.

  2. Surfaces - Facilitating productivity requires surfaces to work on. Our Rize collection features a height adjustable side table and round meeting table which provides space for people to set down their devices or papers, while also allowing users to customise the area to suit their requirements. Our Byte and Dart tables are also a great solution for setting down coffee and taking notes.

  3. Flexibility - Different groups have different needs which require the space to be easily rearranged to suit. Providing lightweight and mobile seating options like our Sofi, Gogo and Balance ottomans allows one to curate a space that will enhance its purpose.

As the modern office evolves, setting the stage for lounge areas encourages employees to come together to collaborate and share ideas in a fresh space. Contact us today to help plan your office lounge.

How to Balance Work and Well-being

June 13, 2019

With a shift in the modern workplace and growth of technology, the increase in a more sedentary lifestyle has created movements to promote employee health and wellbeing. Working styles are constantly evolving to allow for a healthy balance between sitting, standing and walking. This includes the introduction of height adjustable desks and tables, like our Swish and Rize which are a perfect solution to encourage movement.

Height adjustable desks allow users to easily adjust their work surface from a sitting to a standing position with a single tool, giving the user complete control of how they work. In addition, our Rize range includes height-adjustable side tables and meeting tables allowing employees to mix up the way they collaborate and conduct meetings.

Three benefits of height adjustable desks include:

  • Improved Health - With the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes from sitting all day, research has shown that switching to a sit-stand desk lowers blood sugar levels, lowers your risk of heart disease, improves metabolism and reduces back pain.

  • Improved Mood and Energy Levels - The popularity of sit-stand desks has had a positive impact on the employees overall well-being. By introducing desks like our Swish or Rize, users have shown to be less stressed and fatigued than those who remain seated all day.

  • Boosts Productivity - Being able to access a variety of postures throughout the day helps employees stay engaged with their work tasks. Standing has also been proven to stimulate circulation, sending more oxygen and nutrients to the brain, improving one's mental focus thus encouraging one to work more efficiently and increase performance.
