Smart space planning can be defined as maximizing the functionality or use of the space
through furnishings that serve more than one purpose.
So it is with furniture that serves both as a conference table and a conference desk.
For many companies a separate conference or board room is a luxury, given high real estate
rental costs says EQA Office Furniture’s Bruce Mallett. But few are the businesses that
do not need a special area set aside for meetings and presentations.
Special attention can be given to furnishing these spaces in order to maximize their
utility. Rather than being dedicated to a single occupant, these spaces can serve
multiple purposes including a “touch down” office for temporary use by visitors and as
ad hoc conference rooms.
Manufacturers of quality office furniture represented by EQA offer a number of design
configurations that support the efficient use of floor space while presenting an attractive
appearance. For example, executive desks used by visitors can double as a conference
desk when equipped with a “U” peninsula that provides an additional work surface for a
small group of conference participants.
Expanding on the concept, the room can include a conference table in a matching design
for larger group meetings. These tables are equipped with concealed power and data outlets
that facilitate collaboration. Comfortable, ergonomically correct seating can include
executive chairs and
leather office chairs.
Side tables, credenzas, hutches, storage wardrobes, book shelves, presentation whiteboards
with hinged doors and multimedia units contribute further functionality to the room,
offering additional examples of conference desk furniture. The important thing to remember
is that furnishing office space used for multiple purposes requires careful thought.
