Office and Home Office Furnishings: Making Work a Pleasure

Plan your future office or set up your study from the comfort of your own home – as a work-life balance for your very own home office. Creating a professional workspace or a home office is not an unpopular chore for us, but rather an enjoyable task, where you and your working needs are the focus. However, even if high-quality, durable furniture takes centre stage, that's no reason to forgo a homely atmosphere. After all, when you feel comfortable while working, the work gets done more easily and you tire less quickly. The motivation to actually get started with work is, of course, much greater if you can look forward to a workspace that you have set up and designed according to your preferences.

The Right Furniture for Working

No Office Without an Office Desk

The office desk is at the centre of every office. Together with the office chair, it is the place where you spend several hours a day. To prevent this from becoming a chore, the desk must be functional. This means it must be optimally adjusted to the person sitting at it and it should support work processes in the best possible way. It does this by providing sufficient storage surface for the necessary work equipment. Anyone who regularly receives clients or colleagues for meetings directly at their workstation should plan additional space. A corner desk can offer two advantages here. Placing it in the middle of the room allows you to use one arm for your own needs – for computer, writing pad, document stack, etc. – while the other arm can be kept free for meetings. This way you can sit opposite your client at the table without your screen blocking your view. A corner desk is also a very practical piece of furniture in small offices. Placed in the corner, you make proficient use of space without having to do without storage.

Easy-Care Office Furniture

People work at their desks, so you shouldn't have to constantly worry about scratch-resistance and care of your equipment. A good desk is therefore made of robust materials that last a lifetime. Office furniture coated with melamine is considered particularly durable. Stains, for example from ballpoint pen ink or stamps, can be removed effortlessly with a damp cloth. In addition, the coating is extremely scratch-resistant.

Depending on where the office desk is placed, it should also meet the highest aesthetic demands. Our office desks for the home office are real gems. They are reminiscent of modern bureaus and, with their refreshing look, do not have to be hidden away in a purely working room. Why not define a corner of the living room as an office corner? Or allow a spacious bedroom a second function as an office. Even in a guest room, the space is optimally utilised with a beautiful wooden desk, without disturbing the cosy atmosphere.

Height-Adjustable Desks

Many office desks in our range are height-adjustable. Paying attention to ergonomic sitting while working is crucial for your health. A height-adjustable desk can spare you neck tension and back pain. Regularly changing your posture also helps prevent pain. A flexible office desk enables working both standing and sitting.

Ergonomic Working – The Right Office Chair for Every Body Type

Healthy sitting at work requires a combination of a correctly adjusted desk and an office chair that can also be adapted to your body shape. An ergonomic office chair can be adjusted in several ways. The most important function is height adjustment. But a backrest with an adjustable tilt also helps you sit healthily. In our work range you will find a large selection of office chairs that provide excellent seating comfort. Among them is a range of chairs from the Swiss manufacturer Giroflex. A Giroflex office chair can be adjusted optimally for your height, weight and personal needs. Swivelling and on castors, the office chair offers you maximum flexibility.

Practical Storage Furniture Ensures Order at the Workplace

With the choice of office chair and desk, you have already completed the biggest task of setting up your workspace. With a few more practical office furniture pieces, work becomes even more enjoyable. An office cupboard is a practical solution for storing folders and piles of paper neatly. Many of our office cupboards can be locked with a key. Confidential files can therefore be stored without security concerns. A clever alternative to a classic office cupboard or a sideboard are slim, somewhat lower office cupboards that can also be used as standing desks.

Melamine resin is ideal as a material for office desks – office cupboards are also preferably made from this material. The same applies here: why make more work by having to take care of the furniture. Our work range includes various furniture programmes offering tables and office cupboards in the same material and look. This is restful for the eyes and ultimately for working, too, as work is simply much easier in a relaxed atmosphere.

Mobile Pedestals – The Functional Assistant within Reach

For many, the mobile pedestal is indispensable. Discreetly slid under the office desk or freestanding, so that the top can also be used as a storage surface – the mobile pedestal is the ideal assistant for the office. Always within reach, the mobile pedestal keeps documents needed for work ready at hand. The drawers can be fitted with filing systems such as hanging files, so you can find every sheet of paper in no time at all. When buying a mobile pedestal, make sure that the drawers can be pulled out all the way. This way, you can also find sheets and other items that have ended up in the farthest corner. Self-closing drawers are another appreciated feature: accidentally left open drawers not only look untidy, they also pose a considerable tripping and injury hazard. Other features a mobile pedestal can offer are a central locking system with key and a material drawer for neat storage of stationery, paper clips, hole punch and desk utensils. Mobile pedestals are particularly suitable for offices with flexible desks or for transporting documents that need to be quickly and directly accessible.
