3 Things To Consider When Setting Up a Meeting Room

A meeting room or a boardroom area is vital in any organisation because it is where the exchange of creative ideas happen. Meeting spaces provide an area for discussion of important topics and also accommodate different kinds of gatherings.

We’ve put up 3 things to consider when designing your meeting and conference room.

#1: Table Selection

It’s best to figure out what kind of table to choose for your workplace. When deciding on the size, shape and colour of your boardroom table, it’s good to take a step back and reflect on what will work best for your employees. If that space will be used for small gatherings, you can go for a round table. Or if the space will mostly be for large meetings and client presentations, a long table may be the best option for you.

#2: Meeting Space Theme

When designing your meeting area, the overall feel of the space you are creating is important. This will help bring out what kind of energy you want your meetings to have. Some examples of this could be— a fun, modern, creative theme.

#3: Having Natural Light

Being able to produce natural light can greatly transform the total look and feel of any space. It helps keep your meeting area comfortable and at the same time it is able to lift one’s mood.

As a result of this, designing your space with as much sunlight could boost creativity and productivity among your employees.

Home Office Design Ideas to Keep You Productive All Day Long

With working from home being part of today’s “new normal,” Capisco is here to share some ideas on how to spice up your home office to keep you inspired and creative throughout the day.

On top of that, we’ll recommend the perfect chair for your office space design.

Office Idea #1: Minimalist & Clean

For the person who thrives on a peaceful and uncluttered space, this is the office design for you. The monochromatic tones and soft lighting serve as a blank canvas for all your creative and day-to-day work. Perfect for your minimalist and clean office is the white Italian Chair with a four-timber leg frame.  There is also an option for a seat pad to provide extra comfort.

Office Idea #2: Pop of colour

For the one who gets inspiration and energy from being surrounded by colour, this might be the right workspace for you. You might be the type of person who sees ideas, images, and words through different objects and colours. In that case, bringing those into your office may be the best thing to happen for your productivity and creativity. Check out our newly released Olive Green Rhythm Chairs – they might be colour you’re looking for.  We also have navy, grey, brown, black and tan leather.

Office Idea #3: Modern & Futuristic

For the modern and fresh mind, this is the office look might be the one you need. It’s amazing what can happen when form and function come together — very useful, but satisfying to look at as well. If this is the type of look for your productivity, then might we just suggest the Woodgrain Laugh Chair that’s perfect for the space.  There is an option for a black seat pad for extra comfort.

Office Idea #4: Vintage Feels

If you’re feeling nostalgic and would like a vintage-looking home office, the use of rustic furniture could help you achieve that look. You could explore purchasing real vintage items from op-shops & vintage stores. Moreover, warm tones and colours would look great in this kind of setting so our Tan Italian Stitched Chairs would be perfect. Adding neutral tones such as whites and creams around the office also helps bring out the vintage vibes.

 Office Idea #5: Office with A View

Imagine working with a view! Just sitting in front of a beach, a garden, or a mountain – that would be the dream. But you could also station your desk in front of lush greenery and that would be just as relaxing. Adding furniture that matches & complements your chosen view is important to achieve that overall office look you are aiming for. Our white Memory stitched could be a great option for your office with a view.

The Ottoman: More Than A Chair

Dating back to the 18th century, the ottomans became popular for its wide range of styles, shapes, sizes, and functions. Contrary to popular knowledge, ottomans, aside from being used as chairs and footstools, can also be used as storage spaces.

Let’s dive in further as we share how ottomans are meant to be more than chairs.

Aesthetic

A simple ottoman added to a room can do so much. It can add contrast to your walls, as well as texture and shape. For instance, placing a couple of ottomans in a meeting room or a canteen can give the space a more sophisticated design.

As a footrest

Take a seat on your chair, then rest your legs on an ottoman. This will surely make your ottoman experience a whole lot better.

Ottomans are perfect complements to all kinds of chairs. It can turn your normal seating into a relaxing experience.

Storage

Ottomans can be used as storage, helping declutter and minimize mess in a room. You can put different things like pens and notepads, markers, cords, and remote controls inside them. Doing so can tidy up the space and keep activities such as meetings and brainstorming sessions running smooth and efficient.

3 Reasons Why You Need Breakout Spaces in your Office

Most offices are usually prone to feel dull, stifling, and look a bit too serious. This is a big problem given that people are in these spaces for many hours on many days every week. That’s why, nowadays, companies are starting to explore and constantly look for ways to make their workspace fun, inviting, and stimulating. Interior designers and fitout companies are making it a point to create fresh and unique designs to satisfy these needs.

Here are 3 reasons why you need breakout spaces to make your office a little bit more interesting and exciting.

1) It encourages productivity.

Being surrounded by dingy lighting, isolating cubicles, and monotonous colours, more often than not, makes it hard for someone to become productive because their workspace gives off a low mood.

Luckily, there are ways to add some inspiration and fun to your workspace which can foster an environment of productivity. With the help of Capisco, designers can make use of the podspaces and ottoman chairs for breakout areas, where employees can relax, eat, and have informal meetings. Breakout areas in offices are known to boost health, creativity, and reason #2…

2) It promotes collaboration and teamwork.

Unconventional and unique workplaces can create an atmosphere of collaboration between colleagues when they’re surrounded by an open and positive space. With these kinds of spaces, people can come together, bounce off ideas with one other and be able to make business decisions as a team. Some good inspirations for spaces like these are Capisco’s Italian chair collection and the Laugh chair collection, which are definitely not your usual office chairs.

3) Because … why not? It’s easy and can be done at a reasonable price.

Creating breakout spaces usually entail extra cost. But there are ways of creating these spaces at a reasonable price. Capisco gives you the freedom to choose the type and colour of the chairs that you want to put in your space in order to achieve that unique look at a good price. As an example, Capisco’s Wing chairs look absolutely fresh and new to the eyes. Designers can then complement them with other elements, such as lighting and other type of furniture, to complete the breakout space.

What Makes a Workspace Standout

Struggling to make your office space standout? Colour and style are just what you need to change the game.

A common struggle among interior designers and fitout companies is bringing their vision to life. When it comes to designing professional workplaces, part of the process is to ensure that the overall design and look is original and fresh.

With the help of Capisco, check out these 2 ways in making your office space standout.

1. Choose the right colour.

Each company has their own identity. And most of the time, designers must incorporate design elements that reflect a company’s brand in their designs.

A major element is a brand’s colour that is vital to a workspace design. For example, a brand like Coca-Cola would likely have touches of red in their office.

With Capisco, you can choose from a wide range of colour palettes that will surely fit your creative vision for a specific design.

 

2. Style is key.

Part of a designer’s role is to create functional but stylish designs that elevate and enhance workspaces. This can be in the form of interiors, walls and furniture. Yes, it can be a struggle to find the right piece to fill your design. That’s where Capisco comes in. With our help, you’ll have the ability to choose from a variety of chair designs that can be tailor-fitted to your style, from upholstery to the finishing touches of the chairs.
