In general, the UK office furniture market remains strong and
in growth following the Covid pandemic. The workplace
is changing, the office design is changing with it, and how
businesses use their office space has evolved as a result of
the advent of hybrid work. If the pandemic has taught us
anything, it is the value of flexible work settings that encourage
collaboration and concentration simultaneously. This has led to
businesses investing in their office spaces and creating more
agile, flexible working solutions.
In the business world, sustainability has become a key
component in corporate development, with more and more
companies willing to work with commercial interior designers
to create greener, more sustainable environments. Creating
a workspace that is multi-functional and efficient, but also
applying innovative methods to save energy, cut waste and
increasing the wellbeing of employees, making them feel
comfortable in the workspace and improving the quality of their lives.
