bespoke office furniture Open Plan Office
Published June 8, 2023

Of all the lingering effects of the pandemic beyond the medical impact has been the shift in working patterns for those used to commuting into the office.

After lockdown forced people to resort to home working, millions discovered that it actually worked well for them and they liked it. The result of this is that the clarion call to head back to the office has been met with a muted response. Home working and hybrid working is now, it seems, here to stay.

However, not everyone is happy with that. It’s not good news for retailers relying on passing trade in town and city centres, while many argue that the everyday contact from sharing a space with colleagues has a value that cannot be underestimated.

The latter point has been stated many times by government ministers, the latest being chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt. Speaking at the annual conference of the British Chambers of Commerce, Mr Hunt acknowledged the appeal of home working, but argued that office work should be the “default”.

He remarked: “I worry about the loss of creativity when people are permanently working from home and not having those water cooler moments where they bounce ideas off each other.”

Many managers will agree with this, as well as the further point made by Mr Hunt that sometimes the best ideas in business occur in sudden moments of interaction, not structured meetings.

However, if getting staff back into the office is your priority, there may need to be some changes to help achieve this. That means it must be an attractive place with good facilities, comfortable furniture, a pleasant atmosphere and a configuration that enables you to maximise space.

Sliding room dividers can be particularly useful in the latter case, as they will enable you to use more or less space for particular meetings or tasks as required, ensuring larger numbers can be accommodated in bigger meetings and fewer in situations where confidentiality or not disturbing other people matters most.

Despite the recent trend for staff to prefer home working, Aberdeen has seen some significant growth in its office sector, suggesting demand for office furniture and equipment will remain high.

Last year, The Herald reported that demand for office space in Aberdeen had soared, due to high oil prices meaning the sector was enjoying something of a boom.

This kind of situation has arisen before, of course, giving Aberdeen an economic boost at a time when other parts of the UK are feeling the pinch. But even as oil and gas decline as an energy source over the coming years, replacements such as offshore wind and wave power should fill the gap, maintaining Aberdeen’s status as an energy city and keeping administrative office space full.

Whether your firm is in an industry currently doing well or simply ticking along but looking for the next big idea to take you to the next level, you may be very keen to get your staff in the office. With the right furnishings and set-up, you can create an environment that may go some way to making this an appetising prospect.

One word.... PERFECT. We decided to go with KOMANDOR after a very impressive initial planning meeting at their showroom in Aberdeen. This company "ooze" professionalism in every area, from customer service, design, offering honest advice, right to a NO FUSS fitting and instalation to an excellent standard of finish. The Carpenter arrived as arranged and was extremely respectful throughout the entire fitting of 2 fully fitted wardrobes. I'm amazed at how clean he worked with minimal noise and to produce a level of proffessional finish that my OCD can only dream of. KOMANDOR deliverd excellence from start to finish, thankyou to Lucas and the team. Would highly recommend and WILL be back myself to discuss bedside cabinates. 5 🌟

Komandor recently fitted new wardrobe doors for us. We got exactly what we wanted with high quality materials and a quick and efficient installation. In addition, Aga and the team helped to organise the work to take into account the fact that my wife is severely disabled. I would highly recommend this company.

Komandor fitted a wardrobe in a small bedroom in hopes to give back some space. The place now looks completely different, got new space, wardrobe looks classy and super sleek. They did an amazing job! Very happy with it.

Moved into a place which had the main bedroom in the attic. The roof angles meant ‘normal Ikea wardrobes wouldn’t be an effective use of the alcoves. We got a quote from Sharps and Komandor. Komandor was cheaper - worth noting both quotes were quite a bit higher than I initially expected but seems to be the going rate.The cupboards were installed probably a month after placing the order, the fitter was very good and left the room in a tidy state. There were two issues noticed post job, one being a scratch on a door, the other being a drawer not closing smoothly. I got in contact with them and they ordered a new door and fixed that and the drawer in one go. Cannot complain. Hopefully these will last many many years!

Komandor Aberdeen have just installed a fitted wardrobe in one of my bedrooms and we will use their services again!!! Every aspect of their service has been 1st Class right from the initial home visit through to a visit at their Rosemount premises and then the fitting. The Rosemount visit confirmed our initial positive impression of the quality of Komandor’s product and staff. All our questions were answered and the wide variety material options we were shown were very impressive. The wardrobe has been fitted and we are absolutely delighted with the finished product and the extremely professional manner in which it was fitted.When we look back at the other options we looked at we are so pleased that we chose Komandor who, in our view, were streets ahead of the competition. We have to thank Facebook for our choice as it was through Fb that we first saw the good reviews given to the Komandor products. Komandor have exceeded our expectations and we are just thrilled with our new wardrobe 😊😊😊
