Your workplace may look satisfactory to you, but trust us, you need to refurbish your office. Apart from offering your staff the motivation and excitement they lack when they come into work, you'll also be showing your clients you're flexible and adaptable, a business that keeps up with the trends rather than settling for the boring, familiar, ways.

So what is it exactly you should be switching up?

The office hue

The psychology of colour illustrates that the hue of your office can determine the level of energy your staff holds throughout their workday. Each colour will serve a different purpose for your business. If you lead an accountancy firm, incorporating blue into your decor is the way to go as this colour serves to stimulate the mind. On the other hand, if it's creativity that you seek to increase, yellow is more suitable for your case.

Energy saving

The investment will be worth the effort!

Relaxing zone

Multi-national companies have started to employ relaxing zones for their staff in order to encourage productivity and enthusiasm. If you're looking to keep up with the trend, replace the stiff wooden chairs in the dining area with bean bags. If you have unused space, why not equip a small scale of mini golf for your staff to use in their free time? Who knows? Your clients may like to join in the fun while waiting for a meeting.
