Meeting rooms within your overall office design

It is necessary to design meeting rooms as efficiently as possible in today’s offices, where flexibility and hybrid working are paramount. These spaces not only have to be functional, but also inspiring and adaptable to the changing needs of employees. This blog post shares some ideas for setting up types of meeting rooms within your office environment.

The traditional meeting room
Traditional meeting rooms and/or boardrooms remain a part of office design and are ideal for formal meetings and presentations. The emphasis is often on formal, structured communication. Choose comfortable meeting chairs and a custom-made, stylish boardroom table. Modern technology, such as state-of-the-art video conferencing systems, ensures seamless virtual participation of employees or customers who cannot be there in person.

The creative brainstorming space
Unlike the traditional meeting room, the brainstorming space is all about inspiring each other. The colour palette and decorations must create a vibrant atmosphere. Choose dynamic furniture arrangements such as a metal pitch area with stands and hassocks… Also provide opportunities to express ideas visually. Things like whiteboards or creative walls on which employees can sketch or tape their ideas. This is how you encourage active collaboration during meetings. In addition, natural light contributes to a positive and inspiring atmosphere.

The informal huddle room
Huddle rooms focus on short, often spontaneous or virtual meetings within a hybrid working environment. A sit-stand conference table can provide the necessary dynamism in this respect. The audiovisual technology must be intuitive and easy to use so that employees can quickly get to work. Ideal for ad hoc meetings.

The acoustic cubes
Acoustic cubes, such as those from our partner Deblick, are an innovative addition to your office meeting rooms. These spaces provide a quiet and soundproof environment in offices where noise can be a problem. They’re ideal for phone calls, concentrated work, or small meetings. Ergonomic furniture and adequate lighting ensure comfort and productivity in these compact spaces.

Setting up various meeting rooms in a modern office design requires attention to functionality, comfort, and inspiration. By taking the different needs of your employees into account, you create a productive and attractive working environment that promotes employee well-being.
