Individual work positions
Defined desks for concentrated work, with equipment and personal storage planned around each user.
WORKSTATIONS
Space for teams.
Room for ideas.
An effective shared office begins with how people work together. Plan the work positions, movement routes and everyday storage as one connected layout.
THE EVERYDAY WORKPLACE
A layout shaped around your team.
Start with the number of work positions and the relationships between teams, then consider how each desk will be used.
Shared desk arrangements
Grouped work positions for teams that interact regularly, with cable access and separation requirements considered together.
Departmental settings
A mix of team desks, supervisory positions and shared filing organised around departmental responsibilities.
THE DETAILS THAT MATTER
Plan the space between the desks.
Chairs need room to move. Storage needs room to open. People need clear routes through the workplace. Check these relationships in the floor plan before fixing the workstation count.
Team structure
Record who works together, who needs focus and which positions require regular visitor access.
Power & equipment
Mark existing power points, floor boxes, monitors and cable routes before selecting arrangements.
Storage & separation
Define personal storage, shared filing and any screen requirements for the proposed layout.
YOUR PROJECT BRIEF
Build a room-wise workstation schedule.
Count work positions separately from chairs and storage so the quantities remain clear.
- Floor plan and proposed work positions by department
- Team groupings, supervisory desks and visitor needs
- Power points, cable access and equipment
- Personal storage, shared filing and screen preferences
Before you decide.
How many workstations can fit in a room?
That depends on the usable room dimensions, desk footprints, doors, equipment and circulation requirements. Share a floor plan and have the final layout checked for the site’s access requirements.
Can an existing office be furnished in phases?
Record the work areas, access restrictions and intended phases in your brief. The delivery and installation sequence can then be agreed against the final scope.
