cold or inefficient one.

While elements like the actual interiorstructure of an office, the quantity of naturallight and the ergonomics of desks and chairstend to receive a decent amount of attentionwhen it comes to office design, sometimes

themore obvious elements like office divisions

canbe overlooked.

In recent years there has been a shift towards

more open plan office spaces, encouragingopen communication and a more egalitarianapproach to work. Open plan offices often stillrequire some kind of slight division though, ifonly to help with storage or to organize thespace.

Here are a few ideas for office spacedivisions that will add to the aesthetic of youroffice design.

SHELVING: Instead of traditional walls or screens,

you could experiment with some nice shelving. Whether half or full height, shelves are an elegant and practical way to divide a space. Using shelves with no backing can be an especially nice way to create a division without cutting an area off from the rest of the room. Filling the shelves with attractive storage boxes, candles, collectables and other inspiring pieces that are appropriate for your business is a great way to add interest to your office, as well offering a great opportunity for storage.

SHELVING: Bookshelves are another great option

for diving a room. Again, they are both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Filling shelves with inspiring books is a great way to motivate staff and also creates a usable boundary.

WALLS: If you are building an office interior from

scratch, consider implementing some interestingly designed dividing walls, or storage units in the space to help divide into workable sections. Curved walls, doors with feature cut outs, or half walls are a great way to divide a space up without making it feel closed or small. Similarly, implementing a storage or entertainment unit can be an interesting way to divide a room. Having a television in an innovative floating entertainment unit can be a creative and usable way to divide a space.

SCREENS: Sliding doors and screens are some other great office dividing alternatives. Glass sliding doors can offer an element of privacy without cutting through a space, while wooden sliding doors offer warmth and total privacy in a way that can easily be opened up and inviting. Freestanding screens create non-permanent divisions that can be moved to suit the space and the requirements of the office.

Essentially, there are a number of creative office dividing options available that aren’t necessarily traditional, and that don’t close a space up or divide workers. Office design is all about considering the space and the way in which you work and finding the best possible solution for your business.
