Five reasons to add Retreat to your workspace design

We’ve designed a modular zoning system, Retreat, read on to discover how office pod systems can benefit your organisation…

Employees are wanting flexible and engaging workspaces that support their wellbeing, it’s time for employers to follow suit. While flexible working may have served a purpose over the last couple of years, many employers are keen to retain some semblance of office working and the cultural benefits it brings. Remote working undoubtedly has numerous benefits, but companies are striving to find positive ways to replicate the productivity associated with collaboration and brainstorming.

The question is – how can offices be transformed into user-friendly spaces that provide positive, practical, and holistic working experiences for all involved?

Herein lies a vast opportunity for architects and specifiers. As workspaces take on new life, tired and out-dated areas need more frequent updates. This means that architects and workspace designers are constantly required to create fresh, inspiring layouts that boast functionality alongside eye-catching aesthetics.

Companies that have a premium workspace offering are more likely to entice workers back to the office, so we’re here to advise how you can help accommodate their requirements. The modern workspace design is all about adaptable architecture, a transition from fixed furniture to freestanding, flexible options.

Optimal flexibility

Modern architecture focuses on flexible spaces that enable maximum fluidity. As organisations seek ways of improving their workspace, architects and designers are in a prime position to suggest adaptable office designs that workers can easily navigate, move around, and interact with.

Permanent structures are a thing of the past, replaced with ‘zoning’ conduits that serve as collaboration, private and social interaction spaces. Retreat epitomises each of these requirements with its flexible use, manoeuvrability, comfort and functionality. Any organisation looking to remain future-friendly should certainly be considering incorporating a pod into their workspace.

Create a bespoke modular configuration with customisable finish options that allow you to create a one-of-a-kind, eye-catching Retreat to complement any space. With options for a 2-seater sofa or 4-seater cove, the combination of 4 modular pieces can be configured to make the most of any the environment.

Choose from a range of fabrics and optional felt lining to match your style, and discover how introducing the Retreat can elevate and future-proof any modern workspace.

The Retreat is sustainably created from bamboo which is an attractive proposition for any forward thinking, eco-friendly office. Read more about the importance of sustainably crafted furniture here.

Modular constructions are cast in stone for the foreseeable future providing vast opportunities for architects and specifiers. Full advantage can be taken of open-plan offices, and working spaces can be significantly transformed through clever design.

Advising clients of suitable strategies for enticing staff back to the office is a great way of creating flexible spaces and building relationships. The office pod is a great option for adding a contemporary twist to user’s every demand.
