First
impressions are an important part of human interaction that I’m going to say
translates over into an office environment as well. Because of that, the
reception area furniture or lobby areas can be an important element of the
office – allowing you to give visitors positive feelings and impressions as
they enter your office for the first time.
The
reception area furniture area should offer visitors a comfortable area where
they can sit, relax and get work done. Place the furniture far enough
away from the door so that they won’t get cold from people walking in and out
on chilly days. Have both couches and chairs placed together so that groups of
visitors can sit and discuss business while they wait. Set out magazines nearby
for solitary visitors to thumb through. Also consider setting up a coffee
maker; it’s a nice touch for making clients, job candidates and guests feel
welcome.
Nothing says
“disorganized” and “unprofessional” like having a guest bob and weave through a
maze of boxes. Packages and deliveries are probably left at the reception desk
on a daily basis, so it’s important to have enough space to store these items
until they can be picked up. Make the desk area large enough that packages of
any size can be easily set to the side on another desk surface, or somewhere
behind the main desk.
Whether
a person is visiting your building for the first time or the hundredth, they
should always feel comfortable and welcomed. For potential business partners
and job candidates, however, design is especially important; their experience
in the lobby could be a make-or-break factor in their decision to work with the
company. Make sure your lobby is comfortable, spacious, welcoming, and aligned
with your brand. It could be the difference between a one-time-only visitor,
and one who returns again and again.
