Workplace
Your workplace is our priority
We support your needs, prioritise people and shape their holistic experience.
To us, an office is more than just a space. It’s more than walls and a floor to accommodate high-quality furniture. We believe an office is an important factor, which impacts the success of a business and its employees. A properly arranged and prepared office will motivate and support you in the performance of your everyday tasks.

Designing various workspaces is crucial for creating an efficiently functioning office
-
This is the increase in work satisfaction when the office includes areas for focus work and team efforts
-
That’s how many ideas originate away from the desk, as a result of interactions and exchange of thoughts with others in the office -
That’s the increase in individual productivity through access to a variety of office zones
Whatever the nature of the office (a cellular office, an open space etc.), relevant zoning is a key element in boosting the effectiveness of work-related efforts. Thanks to the carefully designed microzones, each space is dedicated to a specific activity, which maximises the efficiency of the entire team.
The Office and its Microzones
Workstations
Basic, individual units. An ergonomic workstation makes it possible for the user to engage in work for more than 4 hours a day. Each employee can have their own dedicated workstation, or they can follow a Desk Sharing scheme, with more than one employee assigned to each station.
Hot Desking Space
An extra desk or a design table available to all employees without the need to book it in advance. This is a solution designed for mobile employees or those who don’t have an assigned workstation. Sometimes offices include a hot desking space for visiting employees, who come from other departments, or for visitors/clients who need a desk on an ad hoc basis.
Managerial Rooms
An individual office space designed for managers, CEOs or the board (premium). The arrangement can reflect the organisational structure of the specific business. This type of microzone supports confidentiality and usually comes with extra storage space (e.g. for confidential employee files). This microzone can be a combination of all office areas (and support individual work, focus work, and meetings).
/
Meeting Rooms
This is a closed conference hall, which offers the utmost privacy. This microzone can accommodate various numbers of employees. It can be arranged in several options, from informal to premium. The space can be subject to pre-booking.

Open Collaboration
A place for teamwork, without partition walls or panels. This microzone is intended for quick meetings and consulting sessions. The nature of this zone makes it available and accessible at all times, without the need to book it in advance.
/
Semi-open Collaboration
This place is dedicated to teamwork, but is fitted with extra panels or mobile partition walls to separate the team from the rest of the office space. This microzone ensures greater privacy, which makes it good for one-to-one meetings, and the general vibe promotes a quiet tone of voice and discourages having phone conversations or video calls. This microzone does not have to be booked in advance.

Agile Space
This is a highly flexible and mobile area, designed for internal team meetings. This micro-zone comes with mobile, multifunctional furniture. It can be easily adapted to the current needs or specific stages of team efforts. The space supports Agile work and philosophy.
Focus Room
This office area is designed for focus work, which calls for silence. It’s good to remember that a Focus Room is actually not an individual office room. It’s a space that can be booked in advance and is available to all employees, so it’s a good idea to furnish it with intuitive and adjustable solutions. The Focus Room is also used for online meetings and private conferences of 2–3 people.
/
Focus Spot
This is a separate area within the open space, where you can find more privacy for confidential work. This visually isolated microzone imposes certain rules of behaviour: speaking in a quiet voice, no online meetings or loud conversations. Extra accessories, such as sound-absorbing panels or mobile walls, improve the acoustic properties of the zone.

Canteen
This microzone has a primarily social function. When it’s big enough, it could become a meeting space for the entire company. It’s a place where people come to have a meal, relax and engage in informal conversations. The Canteen is often combined with the Chillout Space, with a smooth transition to help the employees continue the conversations started during the meal.
Chillout Space
This microzone is focused on leisure and entertainment. It’s a place of active regeneration in the company of your colleagues. It is usually complete with soft and mobile furniture. To enhance the leisure vibe, you can throw in board games, darts or table football. Some businesses, especially IT companies, like to have gaming consoles and TV sets in this zone.

Office zoning and relevant microzone arrangement are the key to the overall success of an organisation
Properly adjusted microzones that match specific business activities help teams make the most of their potential, depending on the character of individual and group tasks. Each zone together with its micro-zones can have a variety of functions. Such spaces can be adjusted to specific parameters, which contributes to a harmonious and functional work environment.
We encourage you to read our publication "The Office and its Microzones", where we discuss in detail the Microzones you may find in your office space.

The pandemic and the related dynamic expansion of remote work proved that although the flexibility of working from home is an asset, some tasks can be effectively performed only in the office. The significance of offices is now growing, while an office is understood as a versatile environment. For example, it is seen as a communication hub and a retreat for those employees who need a quiet place to work and can hardly arrange it for themselves at home.

What are the qualities of the office in new reality?
-
Multifunctional
Complete with modern furniture solutions which can serve more than one function. That’s how employees can adjust the space to their current needs. -
Cosy and welcoming
Like a home or a café – such an environment fosters relationships, which makes it easier for employees to communicate. -
Based on interaction and exchange
The most important spaces in such an office promote communication: formal and informal.
How to come up with a tailored office that meets the needs of your organisation?
Functionality is not a fixed parameter – it changes with technological advancement, trends in HR management and employees’ preferences. Introducing varied areas and microzones for meetings and focus work enables flexible response to variable requirements. Modern offices must be able to adjust to the ever-changing needs of the people and organisations. Thanks to the analysis of the research and our own experience with our clients, we can make informed decisions when adjusting and furnishing office spaces.
