Thinking outside of the box is essential in the current business climate. A company in Singapore have developed a serviced office solution for the broad-minded.
The idea being that the explosion of colours, shapes and unusual furniture will appeal to the technology sector, such as games designers and programmers rather than call centre staff.
The open plan office gives the relaxed approach but the colours and shapes go beyond corporate. The array of colours were selected specifically to help promote motivation, happiness and tranquillity within the workplace, whilst the wacky shaped windows, crazy desk shapes and ergonomic seating was all developed to give an out of the box feel.
The owners of the building are surprised by the instant uptake and high levels off occupancy in the early days. The look and feel is expected to be rolled out onto another two or three offices. “This is not a design that will work everywhere” However, they do not expect this to be a global trendsetter as it only appeals to a niche audience.
The more corporate look and feel is preferred by most of their clients, but there are a handful of clients that are looking for something different, something that stands out and something that promotes innovative thinking.
“Visitors to the offices can’t get their heads round the relaxed feel and the unusual designs”
This is one of many innovative ideas used buy some serviced office suppliers globally. The global market for serviced offices is showing signs of decline due to the recession and business centre managers need to think outside of the box to attract new business.
