Many professionals and business owners are planning to give their offices a fresh new look this year.
A simple change like adding plants or a light therapy lamp can improve employee productivity.
Here are five trends to look out for in 2020, according to Benoit Doucet and Julie Robillard of Bureau Plan.

1.purification

Benoit Doucet has been designing office layouts for 30 years.
At a time when the environment is an important value for a majority of Quebecers, they are prioritizing a streamlined space in their workplace.
Gone are the days of clutter and piles of files.
“We’re seeing more and more office spaces that leave little room for papers,” he explains.

2. Furniture

Bureau Plan’s customers will prefer to decorate according to their tastes and a certain harmony.
This year, people are still opting for classics and solid values.
White and wood are still very popular when it comes to choosing furniture, according to Mr. Doucet.
Another trend is in professional offices.
In interiors and vestibules, we’re seeing more and more high-quality stationery murals that resemble a brick wall.
This lends warmth to the space.

3. Comfortable chairs

These days, the trend is to work standing up.
It helps to think and make good decisions.
Meanwhile, many people have to work sitting down.
Unfortunately, even today, some employers neglect to invest in quality chairs that ensure good posture for their employees.
As a result, some workers have to resort to chiropractors to treat recurring toothaches.
For some, this even means time off work.
Before it comes to that, why not invest $300 to $350 or more in a quality chair, some of which come with a 10-year warranty.
A chair’s lifespan depends on its quality.
You might consider replacing this work tool after six or seven years.

4. Common rest area

On a day-to-day basis, the common rest area also has an important impact.
It’s the ideal place to relax and chat with colleagues.
Comfortable sofas are provided.
Some companies even install light therapy lamps to help employees combat the lack of winter light.

5. Pretty panels

In the corporate world, open-plan areas are always popular.
In some places, attractive panels are installed to create a separating effect between two employees facing each other.
Finally, the professionals at Bureau Plan always take into account the layout of doors, windows and room configurations.
Every detail is taken into account to offer solutions that give priority to the ergonomic needs of employees.
Working in a comfortable and pleasant environment has an impact on the atmosphere and quality of life for everyone.
