THE OFFICE PLANNING GUIDE
A useful brief connects the people, the space and the furniture. Begin with what you know. Leave room to refine the details.
01 / THE SPACE
Identify the spaces to furnish and how each one will be used. An executive cabin, a shared office and a boardroom need different furniture arrangements.
02 / THE FURNITURE
List the furniture needed in each space before combining totals. Note whether a quantity means desks, chairs, tables, work positions or individual storage units.
EXAMPLE FORMAT · NOT A PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
| Room | Furniture | Quantity / unit | Note to confirm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Executive cabin | Desk & storage | Count each item | Footprint and visitor space |
| Team area | Workstations & chairs | Work positions + chairs | Team grouping and power |
| Meeting room | Table & seating | Tables + chairs | Seats per table and equipment |
Use the project planner to keep collection totals and room notes together. If you already have a BOQ, use that as the detailed item schedule.
03 / THE DETAILS
Record your preferred tone, surface and upholstery direction. Confirm actual samples and product specifications before ordering.
Define chair adjustments, storage access, desk equipment and any required testing or documentation for the exact products being considered.
Record the location, target dates, access restrictions and delivery phases. Agree installation responsibilities and the handover requirements.
Use the requirements in your procurement documents as the starting point. Required dimensions, standards and supporting reports should be confirmed against each proposed item.
04 / COMMON QUESTIONS
Furnoma’s website focuses on furniture for government and PSU offices, private companies, corporate workplaces and the architects or consultants planning them.
The photographs illustrate collection and workspace directions. They are not a confirmed product catalogue or completed Furnoma projects. Product options, dimensions, finishes and availability need to be agreed for your brief.
Yes. Choose the collections you are considering, leave quantities open where needed and record your requirements. Commercial details can be discussed once the scope and product options are clear.
This website does not claim certification for any specific product. Identify the standards and documentation required by your project, and confirm supporting evidence for the exact products proposed.
