Keeping pace with the times of office furniture

Technology represents convenience. It makes everything simpler. It enables us to get more transparent information easily and quickly, and to make work hours more flexible and efficient. Under the influence of science and technology, the working environment has changed, the mode of work has changed, and the furniture design has changed. At the same time, the requirements of office procurement are also changing! Under the influence of science and technology, what will the future of office furniture be? How does it change?

Change 1: office mode at any time and open

With the development of science and technology, our working environment is becoming more and more "random", anytime, anywhere, and needs. The enterprise must integrate the open work model.

In 2010 Apple's tablet computer again subvert the people's working state, the appearance of "PAD zoujianghu": they do not have their own office, or that their offices are reduced, the office furniture demand less, can only use the sofa and office conference table; between the city. Daily meeting, the company's business most to communicate via the Internet; managers can also encourage disciplined people trying to get home office, without affecting the working efficiency and quality, can be flexible to work. So the office space is narrowing, and the furniture matching will be reduced.

In the near future, technology will let office environment have a greater change: can not bag empty handed, when we go to work, just remember a password, can any one company in front of the liquid crystal screen, all operations are connected to a super computer integrated; work position according to the vacancy of flexible arrangements, work time can avoid the crowd peak, let time more efficient; employees can make full use of common equipment, enterprises can reduce the space and equipment investment.

This concept is particularly suitable for expensive office buildings in large cities, and businesses can use smaller spaces to accommodate more "flexible" employees. Enterprises can prepare different small workshops, such as private operation rooms attached to technology connections, multi-media and fully equipped communication areas, open and comfortable workshops, multi-functional conference rooms, etc.

Change 2: more concise, more ecological, more efficient

If you are on the last century 90s Cologne furniture fair and impression, will remember, in that "only in the office work" of the times, they also experienced a luxurious furnishings office environment, one for work, with a desk and a chair, drawer cabinet, file cabinet, some there are partitions and screens. In 2014, its size had been reduced to 1/3. The work mode is light, the office space is small, the interactive tools are many, the per capita office furniture has fallen, and the office furniture can only be more concise.

The problem comes at this time. Today's office furniture is only "one table and four legs", simplifying to the point that it can't be simplified any more, leaving less space for designers to play. The limit of price, the limitation of manufacturing process, the refinement of the supplier... The competition is hot and the information is transparent. What are we going to sell and how to sell?

The professional planning team needs "sensitivity". We need to understand the culture and working mode of our customers, and plan every space rationally. These targeted professional planning means additional service value added, which means "premium".

How to understand the science and technology into the work mode, to solve the workers on the use and aesthetic needs, cooperate with enterprises to promote the new environment and new culture, furniture suppliers have reached a transition stage; space planning is an essential service suppliers of office furniture, make furniture design has become one of the highlights of the environment, from price competition, improve efficiency the service does not necessarily increase the plant's operating expenses, in science and technology has reached a low cost and high efficiency to the era, if the factory remained in the traditional marketing mode, it can only be determined by the price of the factory of the future.

Third layers of change: modularized marketing, salesman, designer

With the central government procurement prices, many furniture enterprises in the experience of "change" of mass production, to promote rapid delivery to occupy the market inventory strategy obsolete, against a large volume of veneer and surface paint products demand with the change of government procurement and a large number of decline.

The high rent of the store, a lot of choice, the long digestion time for the factory, will cause the increase of cost. Modularity is a way of solving: different space combinations, just changing the color of the panel, can cause great stylistic changes, and do not require much exhibition space.

At the same time, modularization is also a solution for low carbon design and low carbon office. Simple power, modularity is the key to realizing the rapid production of low cost, fast changing product style.
