4 ways to put your stamp on your new office

Is there anything better than that “new place” feeling? Where the world is your decorating oyster, and the possibilities are almost endless. This is exactly true for the workplace too. 

Whether you are moving into a new workspace or are in the process of sprucing up your current one, there are plenty of ways for you to put your own unique stamp on it, which defines and aligns with your brand and creates a pleasant place for everyone to work.

This piece will discuss how you can put your stamp on your new office, from colours to morals.

Think of the Colours

Using your brand colours for the office will not only help it come alive, but it will also tie everything in together nicely. A colour scheme that matches right down to the font screams ‘put together’ and will separate your office from other mainstream, dreary offices. It also shows commitment to your brand, which is a good impression to leave on both employees and any clients or visitors that come into the office.

Keep it Clean

One of the most important aspects of any healthy and happy workplace is keeping the hygiene up and the space clutter-free. There is nothing more energy-sapping than being surrounded by all kinds of files and bits and pieces and having to feel like you need to have a shower every time you get home because of all the grime, build-up, or anything else that might be lurking in the office. Lack of hygiene and tidiness can be a cause for anxiety.

How the office is presented to employees, visitors, or clients will say a lot about a business, so make sure that one of your stamps on your office is cleanliness and tidiness, especially in a pandemic. Many people will feel much more comfortable if this is the vibe your office gives off, so visit best-clean-direct.co.uk to get some cleaning professionals to your workspace!

Let Employees Get Personal 

Clean and tidy does not have to mean impersonal. There is evidence to suggest that allowing employees to bring a slice of their personal life into the workplace is psychologically extremely beneficial. Not only does it help employees feel more comfortable, happier, and healthier, but it can also encourage productivity, increase creativity, and support wellbeing too.

Letting employees personalise their workspace is also excellent for facilitating workplace relationships. It can serve as an icebreaker for newcomers and helps employees have a firm representation about who they are as an individual within the business. 

Luxury Amenities

No business is required to buy a water cooler, get fruit boxes, or have an array of healthy snacks on display, but doing so offers a strong message that you care about your employees’ comfort and health. This is obviously beneficial for your staff, but visitors and clients will most likely note this too, as looking after your team with the little, yet important things become part of your brand.
