Writer's picture: Iron OakIron Oak


Creating an efficient, collaborative office layout is crucial for productivity and company culture. However, few companies have the expertise to optimize their space on their own. That’s where partnering with a furniture provider that offers professional space-planning services can help maximize your office’s potential. And that is where we come in...


Benefits of Expert Space Planning

Attempting to design your office layout without professional help can be extremely time consuming and frustrating. You may create a workable layout, but there are likely inefficiencies and issues you didn’t foresee.


Bringing in an objective outside perspective ensures every detail is considered – from workflow and traffic patterns to future needs and collaboration. Professional space planners have the experience to know what works well and what causes problems.

A major benefit is functionality. The optimized layout will focus on seamless collaboration between departments and teams. It will also ensure furnishings and equipment properly fit the unique dimensions of your space.


Understanding Your Business Needs

Experienced space planners will discuss how you utilize the office and typical daily activities. This allows them to gain a deep understanding of your business and needs.

Do you require private offices or full workstation customization? Is a large communal break area important? The more insight you can provide, the better the planners can cater the layout specifically to you.


Designing the Layout

Armed with an understanding of your business, the space planners can begin designing the optimized floor plan.

 

Key elements they will strategically place include


In designing the layout, planners utilize proven principles:

  • Adjacency planning – placing departments that collaborate often near each other

  • Positioning desks based on roles and needs

  • Controlling noise through strategic space division

  • Proximity to shared spaces like conference rooms

  • Ability to smoothly accommodate company growth


Benefits of the Final Design

The end result is a thoughtfully designed office that checks all the boxes:

  • Employees from different teams work together seamlessly

  • Noise is minimized, creating a calmer environment

  • Your business can evolve without requiring a layout overhaul

  • Company culture comes through in the space

  • It feels polished, professional, and efficient
