Calm down your office space - By: Perry oscar

Everyone thinks a successful office should be busy – but actually, what your office really needs to be, (whether you rent an office or own the premises) is calm. Once it’s calm, then work gets handled more productively and with less stress – so that when it gets really busy, it’s still an efficient, positive place to be.

Happily you can actually control the ‘calmness’ of your office space. Slough may not spring to mind first as the most relaxing place but even here, in this busy hub of enterprise, Harvard Managed Offices, which runs The Oriel business centre, adopts a few techniques to make its offices calmer and relaxing to be in.

This starts with choosing bright, spacious offices with plenty of natural daylight and generous windows. Neutral, relaxing interior colours, nothing too jarring, are helpful in reducing anxiety and setting the right mindset. Lighter colours add a sense of space, and pale yellows and whites can actually lighten mood.

Once the mood lightens, people tend to be less uptight and more friendly, but let’s not forget benefits of high quality furniture and fittings. There’s nothing more annoying, and potentially more stressful, than sitting in a wobbly or uncomfortable chair all day long. The Oriel’s serviced offices have superbly ergonomic furniture, not simply to make people comfortable, but to make them feel good too.

Unproductive office space, Slough or anywhere else can simply be a question of poor quality fittings, lack of investment and an unimaginative layout. The furniture in your office shouldn’t, therefore, be dull, industrial-quality stuff; it needs to be functional, comfortable, and attractive.

In Slough it’s made by a leading Italian supplier so there’s a touch of class too. When your body is correctly postured, it sub-consciously tells you it is happy and this changes your mood. And this is the key to everything. According to The Oriel, they provide the office space in Slough which provides the opportunities, but it is people who provide the mood. Simple really.
