November 22, 2017

Collaborative work spaces are taking over in modern day offices, much of this is due to the collaborative nature of the rooms and how it adds to a more open and innovative culture. Collaborative work spaces give opportunities for impromptu meeting, sparking conversations between departments, and inspirations. While collaborative work spaces can differ based on the size of the room and the employees using it, we have gathered a list of elements that other companies have used to successfully create collaborative conference room design work spaces.

Fuel Your Thoughts:

Snacks! A good snack selection, of healthy vs. guilty pleasures can help add to a collaborative work space. Not only will having snacks help bring more people to the room, but nothing helps you get through a road block better than taking a break and having some carrots or a Kit Kat bar.

Keep it Moving:

One important element of collaborative work spaces is mobility. Mobility in chairs, tables, and mobile dry erase boards, and presentation displays, because the group of people occupying a collaborative work space can from a group of 3 to a group of 15. By having furniture of wheels it lets the users create and build the space to how they best see fit and for how they want to use the space.

Inspiration at Every Turn:

Many offices are creating rooms and space that add to the experience and give the employees inspiration when in the room. Examples of this could be, adding in a library or covering the walls with modern office art, either made by employees or abstract images, or just having a view of the city or office location with big wall to ceiling windows. Collaborative work space work better when they add to inspiration for projects and to the employees that are using the rooms.

Location, Location, Location:

Arguably one of the most important factors of a collaborative work space is the location. You want the location of the room or area to be centrally located, that way it gives the most people that want to use it the opportunity to use it. If the location for the collaborative space is too far from certain departments than it might deter their use for it. Some companies also build their collaborative work space with glass walls that way as someone passes by they can see how occupied the room is, or if someone they are looking for is in the room.

Collaborative work spaces are taking a big rise in business and how offices are designed. The benefits of having collaborative work spaces adds to the culture and the interdepartmental relationships by giving employees a chance to collaborate and learn from others in the office.
