<span style="color: #212529; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Particularly referring
to the work place, every piece of furniture will play an important part in
boosting productivity. With the addition of great furniture, the ability to
take productivity to a new level is effortless. Below are a few ways that great
office furniture can boost productivity in the work space:</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 19.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: #212529; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Office furniture
that is dull and uninteresting not only makes people sluggish, but naturally it
will make people irritated and clumsy by the mass of work on a person’s desk.
Being enclosed with boring furniture, people often loose interest in their work
and will affect a persons output to a huge amount. Including exciting
configurations and gadgets into the office space will keep people interested in
their work increasing their yield.</span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 19.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: #212529; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">A large amount of
work places are starting to introduce bright colours – this is due to that cool
and bright colours help in lifting peoples attitude which contributes to a
better atmosphere. People spend a large majority of their life in the work
place so is vital that the there is a nice aura. Bright colours are a good way to
relieve stress as well as increasing peoples’ efficiency. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 19.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: #212529; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Not only great
furniture but cleanliness is also accountable for providing constructive vibes
throughout the office. An unorganised office is going to withdraw workers of
the enthusiasm and passion to work properly. A clean office is going to make
people feel comfortable and they will have the ability to be more constructive
in the tasks they undertake.</span></div>

<span style="color: #212529; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"> Another suggestion includes keeping things
accessible. This includes items that are used regularly such as; printers,
stationary etc. Often workers will put off work because they need to get up and
go to another place to complete the task in hand. A good way for this is to
have storage close by. Keeping things handy will not only speed up work but
will also affect the amount of output from a worker. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 19.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto;">
<span style="color: #212529; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Dividing the office
space into different zones often helps with efficiency. This makes the office
more interesting for the workers and can be easily done, for example through
acoustic panels, free standing screens or glass partitioning. Allocating two
different zones in an office for professional and person use will make people
feel more relaxed and that they have more control over their professional and
private lives.</span></div>

<span style="color: #212529; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Height adjustable
desks reduce the chance of diabetes, obesity, cancer and cardiovascular disease
– a wide variety of studies have discovered that there is a connection between
the quantity of time a person spends sitting and their chances of dying inside
a specific time period. Height adjustable desks are a great way of getting
people mobile within the workplace, not only this but it also gives them a
chance to be in a different position whilst still working. This will decrease
the likelihood of people becoming unsettled and therefore their work load being
affected. We have a wide range of height adjustable desks available that would
help with productivity. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

office is an imperative aspect of an effective business and finding the correct
office storage is a fundamental element of this. The right storage will keep
the office space looking clean and tidy, but not only this, it will help the business
be efficient. Storage is critical as this helps save time, prevent loss of
paperwork or documents and makes sure that organisation is paramount. There are
so many different types of storage that are available to a business it can
sometime become a little daunting. There are many factors that need to be considered

<span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">The advantage
of wooden storage in the office is that wood is strong, hard-wearing, easy to sustain
and good value for money. Choosing wooden storage solutions is a good option
for a welcoming look in the office area, as this looks like more of a homely
environment. Metal sometimes looks a little cold and uncharacteristic. Another
great thing about wooden storage is that it is available in such a wide choice
of finishes it can fit in with any office space. In addition, most of our
wooden storage ranges are supplied with a full five-year guarantee for peace of
mind.</span></div>

important to measure the space available in the office space to help decide how
much space can be allocated for storage. We offer a free 3D CAD and space
planning service that can help with this. It is important to take into deliberation
where the other office furniture is going to be positioned. It is fundamental
that enough space is left around the furniture and storage for people to freely
move around the office space. Allowing space for opening doors, drawers etc is
also something that must be considered – again, our space planning service can
help with clearances in the office space. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

such as receiving and sending letters, attending phone calls and of course
visitors. The design on the reception desk needs to ensure that it is designed
in a way that these tasks can be carried out all at once. The reception desk
should never come in the way of smooth operations. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

f the most common
aspects of office furniture that gets overlooked. When considering an office
chair there are many features that you should look out for such as; ratchet
back height adjustment, height adjustable arms, and synchro mechanism and many
more. Whatever features you are looking for we will have just the chair for
you! <br />

</u></b>Height adjustable arms on an office chair are very important for
encouraging the correct posture when sitting in the chair. Arm support the
upper torso and reduce the strain and tension on the shoulder and neck area
when working at your desk. Height adjustable arms are set back on the chair so that
they do not get in-between the you and the desk. When you When a user does not
have arms on their chair it encourages the user to slump forward on to the
desk. This position causes pressure on the spine and can lead to back pain and
tension. Arms on an office chair can also assist the user to get in and out of
the chair with ease.<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u>Back Height
Adjustment <br />
</u></b>On some chairs the back-height adjustment is carried out but twisting a
knob on the chairs back. Some of the more expensive chairs are supplied with a
ratchet mechanism. This operates by moving the chair up on the concealed
ratchet system within the back itself. Once the maximum height is reached a
further lift returns to the chair back to the bottom of its height adjustment.
Back height adjustment allows the user to position the backrest in the correct
position for ultimate lumbar support. Your office chair is your home away from
home, so it is so important that the correct lumbar and back support is
reached. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u>Synchro Mechanism <br />
</u></b>The synchro mechanism is the relationship between the seat pad and the
backrest, so that the seat pad is at the correct angle compared to the
backrest. The synchro mechanism is very simple to operator and widely used in
many chairs, this is because the back and seat angles are quickly and
simultaneously changeable. This allows posture changes for different activated
such as keyboard work or reading. It is essential for the synchro mechanism to
be locked in the correct position for the user so that is provide ultimate
support. The synchro mechanism can also be locked in the upright position. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><u>Seat Slide<br />
</u></b>Seat slide if the movement of the seat pad backwards and forwards in
relation to the backrest to adjust the effectiveness of the seat pad depth for
the user. Regardless of the users height, this enables the user to get the
appropriate level of under-thigh support without restricting circulation. The
sliding seat pad should make it easy to optimise the users own seat comfort and
support. <o:p></o:p></div>

</u></b>The lower part of the spine naturally curves inwards towards the belly.
A lumbar back support helps to promote good posture by simply filling in the
gap between the spine and the seat, supporting the natural inward curve of the
lower back. Without a lumbar pump it is more difficult to maintain the correct posture and
the lumbar spine and large muscles in the lower back have to work harder to
support the proper curvature and alignment. Without a lumbar pump overtime the
muscles in the back will tire and become weak which means the users natural
tendency would be to slouch and or lean forward in the chair.<o:p></o:p></div>

A headrest can be particularly helpful for users that need extra neck
or head support such as users with back problems. A headrest allows the muscles
to relax and it also improves blood flow. A headrest can be easily adjusted to
the users needs which provides the right amount of support and in the correct
place. Having a headrest on a chair also encourages the users to have the
correct posture which reduces the risk of back pain when sitting at a desk. <o:p></o:p>

Ignoring some of the more trivial issues that somebody might have with the 'pen tapper' sat opposite them, or the 'loud chewer' to their left, problems always seem to arise from very avoidable issues with office equipment and layouts. Whether you just <i>NEVER </i>have enough space for all that paperwork you need to process, you <i>KEEP </i>kicking that CPU underneath your desk or if your chair simply does <i>NOTHING</i> for that bad back of yours... we know there'll nearly always be a simple and cost effective solution available.<br />
<br />
Sometimes all you have to do is take a step back and think outside the box. One of the most invaluable inputs can often be an outsider's perspective, and this should be taken advantage of whenever it's on offer. Every office, every building and every problem is unique, and it can be quite easy to be blinkered to what is actually a very simple solution for your office.<br />

We find this has lots of benefits for everybody involved - some of which are obvious, and others maybe not so much. <div>
<br /></div>

The main beneficiaries of British manufacturers are inevitably our customers as the end user. You can have more flexible products on shorter lead times, and the quality is almost always to a much higher standard than most overseas factories. This is reflected in the warranties which come with the furniture as standard. Our UK made furniture nearly always carries a five year guarantee, and if there ever are any problems - which are rare, but can happen with moving parts on drawers and chairs etc. - they can be fixed by a factory engineer very quickly. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One element that end users don't always consider is continuity, and this is another fantastic benefit of buying British. Imported furniture can vary from batch to batch, so if you buy furniture even a couple of months apart then there can be slight variations between the ranges. With our made to order British ranges you can guarantee absolute continuity, even years after an initial order, which allows you to have a beautifully matching office even if you don't kit it all out in one go.</div>

We all know what an office needs to operate; the basics that are required to make it function. Desks, chairs, computers, storage, telephones etc. are all very much an established part of the modern office, but what else can we bring in to make it run more smoothly, effectively and stylishly than it otherwise would?<br />
<div>
<br />
There are some very basic additions which are essential for running an effective office space and have been going unnoticed and unappreciated for years. We're talking about desk divider screens, and they certainly do a lot more than just stop mess from spilling onto neighbouring desks! Noisy call centre environments in particular are prime candidates for upholstered screens, they operate as fantastic sound barriers and absorb any excess noise.<br />
<br />

<br />
There are plenty of less obvious things that you can also bring into your office to help make things operate as smoothly as possible. One of our most popular products in recent years has been monitor arms. They raise the monitor away from the desk top, either via a screen attachment or a desk clamp, and create a lighter and more open desk space beneath. The development of monitor arms has come on leaps and bounds in recent years as flat screen monitors have become more widely used in offices. With office space at such a premium, desks are getting smaller as more workers have to be fitted into the available space, and any methods of optimising desk space become worth their weight in gold (fortunately monitor arms are very light, so this doesn't price them off the market!).<br />

Effective cable management is also essential for keeping both a tidy and an operational office space. It's very difficult to keep your desk ship-shape and operational if there are cables everywhere, so finding a place to hide them away is very important. This can be done through the cable ports, a sliding top, cable trays, cable managed legs, or a combination of a few of these. Sliding tops are particularly useful for allowing regular access to plugs, and are especially popular for hot desks or IT workers. Additional power modules can also be put in cable trays, under sliding tops or beneath cable access tiles to allow a range of power/data sources to be fed throughout the office neatly and easily.<br />
<br />
The range of accessories that are available in the modern office to make sure that it runs smoothly is fascinating. The requirements of offices have developed at such a rapid rate in recent years that accessories have had to keep up, and in some cases even outstrip the technological advances.<br />

It's become widely accepted in recent years that an office should be laid out a certain way. The basic structure generally consists of a desk, with a computer and phone of course, a little bit of personal storage and an operators chair. A new trend is developing however. Question marks are being raised about the long term future of the conventional office chair, and the standard heights of the desks that we use too. Whilst it'll never be suggested that seating should be entirely eradicated from our modern offices, the emphasis and the nature of this seating is shifting ever so slightly towards a healthier and more malleable office space.<br />
<br />

Various health studies have found that cardiovascular and circulatory problems, and a vulnerability to diabetes, can develop over time if people are sat at their desk for too long. Whilst the quality and affordability of available seating has improved no end, this can never alleviate the risks entirely. Mobility around the office has been found to be very important for maintaining a good circulation, which in turn encourages a better attention span, creating an energetic, productive and healthy workplace. It's widely accepted however that standing desks aren't a practical permanent solution - which is the main drive behind the development of height adjustable desks.<br />

Height adjustable desks are being continually developed to be easier to use and cheaper to manufacture, which is making the concept of the standing height office a far more realistic one. There have been some fantastically designed height adjustable desks in recent years, but these are rarely cost effective enough to be practical for large scale offices. Likewise, there have been some very cheap ranges developed - but these are considered too impractical or time consuming to adjust, and are therefore not right for the wider office either. Once an effective compromise has been reached, we can see height adjustable desks being a mainstay in the majority of offices. After all, not all people are the same height - so why should all desks be at the same height?<br />
<br />

With the continuing development of the height adjustable desk, we're sure that the office of the (not too distant) future will be more flexible, healthier and more productive than ever before.<br />

Whilst the personnel running the office, and the systems that are in place are of course essential, it's also very important to consider the storage and filing that's available to them. An office needs to have the right amount of the right style of storage in order to run at maximum efficiency. Whatever you need, we'll have something available to suit!<br />

<b><u>Pedestal Drawers</u></b></div>
<div>
Personal storage for each desk is important for encouraging every employee to keep their own desk neat and organised. Pedestal drawers, whether they're under the workstation or integral to the desk, help each worker to feel more at home whilst at work. They create a personal space, and somewhere to organise their paperwork and avoid cluttering the desk. Under desk pedestals can be mobile to allow greater flexibility in a malleable office, which are perfect for businesses which have a high staff turnover, large numbers of seasonal workers or hot desks. </div>

<b><u>Two Door Cupboards</u></b></div>
<div>
Standard cupboards are available in a variety of styles and sizes. They're particularly popular at desk height to create continuity throughout the office and a consistently practical worktop, but they're also available at full height, and plenty of sizes in between. A range of available internals and a wide choices of finishes make this basic style flexible to suit your space and your needs. </div>

If you're looking to introduce secure storage into a tight space, then tambour cupboards could be the perfect solution. The very nature of tambour doors means that they don't need a lot of space to open out. The full depth of the unit is used for storage, which allows you to maximise the use of a narrow area. Some people find that cupboard doors can get in the way if they're not closed properly, whereas tambour doors don't have any risk of that problem. </div>

<div>
<b><u>Filers</u></b></div>
<div>
Side Filers and filing cabinets are perfect for creating an organised and practical office space. Papers and brochures can be stored effectively and accessibly, with no risk of being lost or buried among piles of other things. Filers are where the users become just as important as the storage itself: we can provide you with the best filing storage imaginable, but unless everybody adheres to the system in place then they won't go very far!</div>

<b><u>Fitted Cupboards</u></b></div>
<div>
With office space at a premium, made to measure and fitted storage is becoming ever more popular. You can make the most of every nook and cranny within your office by tailoring the storage to fit, and it's often far more cost effective than people expect. You can cherry pick the types of storage you need in your office too: whether you need pigeon holes, roll out filing, suspension frames, fixed shelves or anything else - we can design you a cupboard to suit. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is only a 'whistle stop guide' to the office storage that's on offer. Beyond the standard ranges, dedicated teams of specials designers are also on hand to put together fresh ideas to suit any unique needs that you might have. Ultimately, whilst we're always on hand to advise about what storage is most effective, you're the person that knows your business best, so please let us know about any specific requirements that you have.<br />

The 'basic' desk. This has been the focal point of offices for decades, and is sure to be around for decades to come. The frames and top shapes have evolved as trends and fashions change to create a really flexible style, but the basic desk remains much the same. These have the great advantage of allowing you to create a consistent style throughout your office, whilst deploying a range of different shapes to suit different employees. A configuration of rectangular shapes might be ideal for some, whilst others may need the additional space created by a corner or 120 degree desk - the possibilities are endless!</div>

<b><u>Combination Desk</u></b></div>
<div>
Some ranges give you the chance to add an integral pedestal to the design. This has some great benefits as both a space and money saver, although it does reduce the flexibility of the desks slightly. Built in storage reduces the number of components, which helps to keep costs down. Combination desks also ensure that each workstation is compact, without limiting the amount of desktop space that's available to the user. </div>

<div>
Incredibly popular in large and small offices alike, bench desks are perfect for creating a consistent run of workstations. Shared legs mean that every bench that's added reduces the cost per user, and double sided benches (with optional divider screens) can bring the individual user costs down even further. Bench desks are also great for managing cables: sliding tops and cable trays are simple to add, and make a huge difference to the overall practicality of the style.</div>

Executive ranges are designed with a bit more style and panache in mind. Whilst the workstation still has to be practical, it needs to bring a certain level of style and authority to the office. Large returns, plentiful storage and meeting sections are commonplace with executive setups, because they often have very different requirements to standard desks. Executive desks are perfect for making a statement of intent about your business, so it's always important to get right! </div>

Perfect for home offices or an executive suite, glass desks are modern and bright. The nature of a glass top puts a lot of emphasis onto the style and quality of the frame - and there are some truly stunning designs available.

Buying your office furniture on the internet can save a lot of time and hassle, but it does mean that it's not always easy to see/try things before you buy them. Whilst we find that a lot of people quite like this approach, it can cause a bit of a stumbling block for others who want to get a proper feel for the furniture before buying.<br />
<br />
We have a selection of showrooms that give you the opportunity to get 'hands on' with your options, to get a feel for the style and quality of the available ranges. Whilst we'll always give you honest and genuine feedback about the quality of the options that we have available (because it does fluctuate between various ranges), and the guarantees are also a useful indication, it always helps to see them for yourself to make your own judgement.<br />

Whilst we can always advise you about what we think are the best options (and be right more often than not!), seating is a very personal thing for each user. In our sales office in Northampton we all have different operator chairs - and none of us agree about which is most comfortable! Generally, it's quite a safe bet to go for a chair with a range of adjustable options which will give you the flexibility to mould the chair to your needs - although if you do get the opportunity to have a sit on a few options then we would always recommend taking advantage of that.<br />

Whilst we appreciate that it's not always possible, we do recommend having a look around some sort of showroom if you get the chance.

Everybody knows how important a the right reception can be for a business, but knowing how to achieve it is something entirely different and more complex. We've put together this handy guide, which should help you to narrow down your choices and make sure you're looking for the right sort of reception for you and your office. Of course we're always on hand to help and advise you, but these useful tips should help you to stay ahead of the game!<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>First of all, you need to establish how the reception is going to be used. For instance is it an operational workstation that needs lots of desk space and storage, or will it serve exclusively as a greeting point? This will also make a difference to the height that's required: a working reception will need to allow users to be seated, whereas a more basic greeting point would probably be better suited to a standing height reception. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<ul>
<li>You also need to consider the size of reception that you can use. It's very important to make sure that your reception is large enough to be the central focal point of your space, but likewise you also need to be sure that it's not over powering your reception space. We have a free space planning and design service that can help you make the most of your reception area. </li>
</ul>
<br />

</tbody></table>
<li>The finishes of the reception are also essential for sending the right message. We have a huge variety of finishes available, from MFC wood finishes, to a modern and very popular white and a selection of bright and vibrant colours. These allow you to customise your reception to complement your space and ethos of your business. We also have some fantastic real wood veneers available if you want to show more than just a finish. These exude quality, and make a real statement of intent about your business. </li>
</ul>
<br />
<ul>
<li>The customer/guest facing nature of receptions mean that you need to factor in things such as top boxes and shelves to make sure your reception desk is as welcoming as possible. We often recommend using top boxes to allow the user some privacy when working (and to potentially hide away any messy paperwork!), with glass shelves positioned to guide guests to the best part of the reception to be served from. </li>

</tbody></table>
<br />
<li>The shape of the reception is also integral to the style you want to create. Traditionally designed receptions generally have two basic options - curves or straight lines. Large sweeping curves can look very effective in a bigger reception area, whilst compact and tight corners can make the best use of a smaller area. More modern designs are also available if you want to create something really special. Our most popular range for this style are the EMDD receptions, which has some really exciting designs available to catch everybody's eye. </li>

Everybody is different, and as such will have a very different criteria for what they need from their chair. We know it's not possible for everyone to try every chair on offer, so we've put together some 'top tips' that you can follow to make sure you're getting the best chair for you and your office!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: right;">
</div>
<ol>
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/officechairs/detail.php?mid=159&did=TheAirBlastRange" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikDDa8PgYtz0iNrQiZMKvCCgYkWHRbS5mtEDrPUzF735Y9xk4yjFr-d0OWWpNNYVWRKD1rAg3ZNcIDAIspiZROYL6c_we12FgClLJdT1ipL6mgEFpuHmC8rKaye8nxzxIhffooRThiQyI/s1600/Verve+AirBlast+chair.JPG" height="176" width="200" /></a>
<li>Know the sort of style you want. Whilst we're always happy to advise you on your options, there's such a huge variety of styles available that we do need some guidance on where best to start looking for you - whether you want a mesh chair, a high back chair, an executive chair, a leather chair or anything else, just let us know.</li>
<li>Take advantage of made to order ranges. Many of our ranges are made to order, so if you're looking at any of these options then make sure you make the most of the chance to personalise the chairs. You can choose from a range of different fabrics, often at no extra cost, to bring vibrant or corporate colours into your office.</li>
<li>If you need lots of chairs for lots of different users then you'll probably need some adjustable options to maximise everybody's comfort. Optional extras such as adjustable arms, lumbar pumps, seat slides etc. allow each user to customise the chair for their own body shape, which is essential for keeping everybody comfortable. </li>
<li>Consider any special requirements you may have. For example, does anybody in your office have back troubles, or are there any unique body shapes that need to be catered for? Whilst it can sometimes be a sensitive subject, we can accommodate people of any shapes and sizes. </li>
<li>Consider matching ranges for meeting or canteen areas. Many of our office seating ranges have matching cantilever or four leg options for meeting rooms, offering you continuity throughout your office. </li>
</ol>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/officechairs/detail.php?mid=217&did=Light" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYswuBVuDnINl09kqq0trlFmDvVM20aHzpq7H2Y4x-Pn1Afx2X82liVI2XVr2NekwhBDsljGgCvsnNjPG6S2tegCWvjVIb1mq4Q9BTSKm2uJowg87lWlpn89KKjPoQ0ilGCexSI57wXTw/s1600/Light07+copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Whilst it's important to consider all of these factors, we're also on hand to help guide you through any queries or issues that you might have concerning which chair might be best for you. We have such a huge variety of options available that we know there'll always be something to suit your needs, it's just a matter of narrowing your choices down to what's appropriate for you and your office.<br />

<br />Verve Workspace Ltd.http://www.blogger.com/profile/03253776406091627464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563035368104628168.post-31733474677085331032014-03-03T01:17:00.000-08:002014-03-03T01:17:39.180-08:00Client Stories - MK Community Foundation<u>The Client</u><br />
We were recently approached by the MK Community Foundation, a charitable organisation who provide meeting facilities and resources for the voluntary sector, to see if we could help them to renovate their offices in the heart of Milton Keynes. They have thirteen meeting rooms, two conference suites and an exhibition space, all of which needed to be refurbished.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/recent-projects/index.php" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="Verve Project" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxyNjQ_JXMV00Dd_tS1IO2rQvTU-mhf_D3N_x5punBL18iTnW37PeJLMaJGoTp5LY4UeBHvthNzsKnHYdVrDkwon-uockQ-dStOcnhv5b_pRHKgVOby75vyFV0hu3DETatwIZkS708cRo/s1600/MK+Comm+6.jpg" height="202" title="" width="320" /></a><br />
<u>The Brief</u><br />
The client wanted to create a fresh, bright and flexible environment for their meeting spaces. It was really important that the furniture and interiors matched their vibrant corporate colours without being too overpowering. The meeting spaces had to be inspiring and innovative, as well as flexible to cater for the variety of different organisations that would be operating out of them.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/recent-projects/index.php" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="Verve Project" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqxRftzGx1mjb6pg2JfSKlL_Wv5xCHKncVp87MBvVlnrAo1mT8nu3LlKsQG-7Q1-NtA-PJM4AvlMB1_L0PH9xSO3cQKCYq4xlRjtAdcBGVSm6LV5PWPuPsDZJfuEQCuut5G28kDTL9yP4/s1600/MK+Comm+1.jpg" height="220" title="" width="320" /></a><u>The Process</u><br />
We put together come CAD designs to show the client how various elements of their space could look, with various configurations and finish options available. Having assessed the ideas, it was unanimously decided that the furniture should be finished with a white MFC to maintain the light and open feel in the offices. Most of the tables also had flip-tops and castors to make them flexible and mobile. These were then complimented with a range of made to order seating - which was upholstered in a variety of pinks, purples, greens and blues to match in with MK Community Foundation's corporate colours.<br />
<br />
We created a modular reception which continued the light and open theme: lots of storage meant that the area could be kept tidy and inviting, whilst the glass shelves made it feel welcoming and approachable. <br />
<br />
The large conference rooms were filled with over 200 upholstered black chairs. These were contemporary chairs with a stylish sled base, as well as being lightweight and stackable to maintain the flexibility. Trolleys were manufactured to make them all easily transportable around the building, to create a truly malleable office space.<br />
<br />

"Verve were a great choice for our organisation. They were very knowledgeable in helping us to select the right furniture for our needs, discussing options that suited our venue and our budget to provide exactly what we needed for a very competitive price The fitting service is also excellent and tailored to accommodate us and our working hours.<br />
Everybody that has seen the new space, from clients to staff, have made comments on how fresh and light the facilities are, with many people saying it's a pleasure to hold meetings in rooms that are furnished to such high standards.<br />
Since our initial order we have used Verve again and will continue to do so. We are very impressed with the whole service from start to finish." - Vanessa Bradley, MK Community Foundation<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Space planning is an essential stage in the process of setting up of any office, and is crucial for maximising use of your office space. We offer a free space planning and design service to help you make the most of your office, but what are the things that you need to take into consideration to make sure you're making optimum use of this facility? Take a look at our top tips for space planning:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>Establish how many people you want to fit in your office, and make sure it's realistic! We can help you to maximise use of your space, but this doesn't always mean fitting more people in - you might be able to fit in ten people, but if you only need seven workstations then the rest of your space could be put to better use another way. Make your space work most efficiently for you!</li>
<li>Leave room for people to manoeuvre! Whilst your office might physically be able to fit a certain amount of workstations in, remember that people need to be able to work and operate effectively. It's generally recommended that 1000mm is left as a minimum gangway size, but large offices might need to consider more than that to make sure that everyone is comfortable, safe and mobile in the office.</li>
<li>Take everything into account when measuring. If you're sending us your measurements for plans then make sure nothing is missed. One of the most common problems we encounter is skirting boards - so don't forget to allow for every minor detail!</li>
<li>Make sure everyone can access fire escapes easily, quickly and safely.</li>
<li>Allow enough room to open cupboards and filers! Remember that you don't need to just consider the depth of the cupboard, but the additional depth of the open doors too.</li>
<li>Be open minded! Many great ideas have to be tweaked as the space plan evolves, and it's really important to be accepting of these necessary amendments and to keep an eye on the bigger picture.</li>

At Verve Workspace we're always looking to make sure that we're constantly innovating and progressing to make sure that things are as easy and hassle-free for our customers as possible. Our latest step in this endless endeavour is to introduce a completely new website design for 2014.<br />
<br />
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: right; margin-left: 1em; text-align: right;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><span style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif7TtTWZ_eaJ52jccHIWZxV7H_vctGJEiY8AMSrl2map8DcFxnUZVzuWW2DgVocne-INsT8sHpNN2vMc9Kh70Eoj2ciWm85t5VVs9bwNza56o5IDZscfdHkp_RjbSJ46X-oprfWdyKFo4/s1600/Verve+2014.jpg" height="400" width="355" /></a></span></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: small;">Our new look homepage </span></a></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
We worked really hard throughout 2013 to get customer feedback on our website and overall sales process, and one of the main comments we received was that an idea of pricing for different ranges on the site would be useful. We think it's important that we maintain the traditional Verve ethos of strong communication and a personable service, so we decided to introduce our new pricing guide. This gives an indication of the prices we can offer for each range, but still aims to encourage customers to talk to us to get the best deal to suit their needs.<br />
<br />
Once we came to terms with what a lengthy process this was going to be, we thought it would be best to overhaul the website at large. This led us to the drawing board where we drew up a design that we think is eye-catching, stylish and easily negotiable - and everyone we've asked so far seems to agree! The new website went live midway through January 2014, and we're delighted with the response we've received already.<br />
<br />
The fresh new style allows everybody to navigate the site more fluidly, and the new price guide has helped customers to get an immediate feel for the available ranges and how far they can make their budget work. Of course we don't want to pigeon hole customers with specific prices and restrict our ability to tailor quotations for each individual, so if you have any specific requirements or quantity needs then please just get in touch, and we'll be delighted to help!<br />

Here at Verve Workspace, we pride ourselves on being able to offer everything you need to set up your office. From our initial fit out service (which includes partitioning, carpets, blinds, ceilings, decorating and more) through to the furniture that we're famous for, we already have a great range of products and services available to help you get your office up and running... but what about those finishing touches to personalise your office to your own specification?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="Verve Workspace Office Furniture" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9DLApWHvhMCBh0aKDOICtw8kyC_5SRXNE4zovZdcAHJI_a5SIFdsW8MasId-Gl8z1ooC3kWgr4c53wHEoSdj4E9LoOzvNdazUblNvinftFCa1uuH7CovkbOv2IMLFSHQLfmtsHdYsvu0/s1600/102989_1.jpg" height="240" title="" width="320" /></a>We've developed a number of different products and variations to help you complete your office exactly as you'd like it. These options vary from things as simple as choosing your own upholstery, right through to replica plants and coat hangers.<br />
<br />
The simplest and cheapest way of creating your personalised office is to make full use of the extensive range of fabrics on offer. These can be used for screens and seating, and are a fantastic way to bring your corporate colours into your office. A very popular and practical style is to use dual upholstery on operator chairs - using a dark coloured fabric for the seat (which doesn't show marks or stains as easily) and a bright/vibrant fabric for the backrest because this doesn't take as much abuse as the seat pad. This is often available at no extra cost, and you can combine it with screen upholstery to make a really neat and well matched office space.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="Verve Workspace Fake Plants" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjl13g2KMNERKdJOVAFVrKlUxMMls1jaNW5GzrGSJLuuDWzArYjuNLiIJWa8OH6q-7xZ-lSZ7VNXQ5U5qCX9U9kYmEcpG638O96KnVUn1aB7GCReSysWA0WWnQI7KmgSuKLiozGEVCr2uU/s1600/Untitled.jpg" height="169" title="" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Another great way of making your office space feel open and welcoming is to introduce plants to the space. Now we know that nobody likes having to remember to water the plants, and then there's the potential mess created by soil spills and falling leaves which make plants in the workplace a minefield of problems. Or does it? We've recently introduced a great new range of replica plants, which look 100% real but with none of the hassle. They're available in a choice of sizes and styles, and will really set your office off beautifully.<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Your boardroom speaks volumes about your company and the image that you want to portray, so you need to make sure you get it right. It provides you with a space for your most important guests, and it's where most big decisions will be made: you need to create the right atmosphere. There is a huge variety of options available, which allows you to tailor make your boardroom to suit your every need. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Traditionally, a business will go for a large and imposing conference table: they can send a message and create a strong image. This style is still very popular, with lots of beautiful real wood veneers and MFC designs available to really make a statement in your boardroom. This concept has been given a bit of a modern twist with the development of glass designs, and a shift in trends towards the light and open style that it creates. Depending on the image that you're trying to portray, we have a huge selection of boardroom tables that can suit your business and your meeting room.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">But what if you need to create a more flexible space? You have a boardroom, but you need to use the space for various types of meetings - such as presentations or training exercises. For this sort of flexible space, you need a flexible furniture setup, and that's where we come in! We have a selection of reconfigurable, flip-top and folding leg tables that can be configured to suit your needs. In our Northampton head office, we have six white flip-top tables that are linked to make one large table, until we need the space for product demonstrations or smaller meetings. We can separate the tables with ease and store them away until we need them. An excellent time and space saver, they're practical for any of your boardroom requirements!</span><br />

Our range of stacking chairs make it really easy for you to find a style that you'll love, with the flexibility to stack them away when not in use. This is a fantastic way of saving space and introducing the potential for extra seats at short notice. These setups often take some time to work out the kinks, but once you get your head around how your boardroom will function, you can have a very efficient and flexible space. </span><br />

This gives you the opportunity to stamp your own personality on your office space, and style it as you like. That's the effect that we go for in our own Northampton head office: white desks, to create a light and open feel, and we then use small extras to create a vibrant and colourful feel.<br />

Making use of screen fabrics and seating upholstery is a great way of freshening up your space to your own style. We use these to bring our corporate colours (a vibrant green) into the office to brighten up our working environment. We're aware that these colours probably won't be everyone's cup of tea, but you can integrate your own corporate colours into your office to create the atmosphere that best represents your business. Equally, you can use blinds, carpets, lights and wall hangings to create an office design that really gets your creative juices flowing.<br />

It's not just a functional place to work, but it needs to be comfortable, calming and sociable as well. If you can incorporate a style that inspires and refreshes your employees then you'll notice a remarkable upturn in productivity. It's been proven that happy workers are harder workers, so why wouldn't it be worth investing in developing the right office space to see longer term gains? This means looking beyond the desk: sociable breakout areas will give employees a space to relax during their lunch away from their working area. The opportunity for a change of scenery in a comfortable and sociable area will help to encourage maximum productivity during working hours, and make sure employees are happy in their work too.<br />

A breakout area can be anything from a couple of sofas, right through to large configurations of soft modular seats to allow employees to relax as they see fit. You can choose from a huge range of seating, with a selection of fabrics and designs, to really make your breakout area suit the needs of your workers and the style of your business. Some of our ranges have the option of dual upholstery (often at no extra cost) to allow you to make your space as unique to your business as you like!<br />

An increasing desire amongst businesses to modernise their working environment has led to white MFC becoming more and more fashionable.<br />

<br />
In general, white furniture creates a more light and open feeling workspace. It is also a finish that is easily combined with other colours, for example our office features white desks and walls with screens and some feature walls in bright green. Now this may not sound like everyone's cup of tea, but we find that it demonstrates the flexibility of white desks really nicely. This is the main advantage of the style - they are adaptable and can be easily blended in to any office environment.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>
A nice variation of the white desks is the option on some ranges to change the base finish. Desks that feature an integral pedestal often have the option to change the finish colour to add variety to the style. One of our favourite colour combinations is walnut and white, which combines a modern and a traditional finish to create a really nice office setup.<br />

One hangup that a lot of customers ask us about is the durability of the finish - will the white MFC show scratches and marks more than other styles? The simple answer is this: no! All of our desks are finished to a commercial grade, so white desks are just as resilient and hard wearing as any other traditional finish. The majority of our ranges that are available in a white MFC are also available in a selection of other finishes, so they are flexible to suit your every need.Verve Workspace Ltd.http://www.blogger.com/profile/03253776406091627464noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4563035368104628168.post-85855620098652405302013-08-28T08:14:00.000-07:002013-08-28T08:14:26.178-07:00More Than Just Office Furniture...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

If you're moving into a new office, or need to completely re-vamp your current one, Verve Workspace can do a lot more than just supply and install your furniture. We offer a full fit out service, and supply everything from partitioning and carpets right through to cycle and smoking shelters.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You can create more private spaces or individual offices within your building by putting in partitioning - the perfect solution to noise or privacy problems, it's an excellent way of introducing walls into your office. Using partitioning is a r</span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">elatively cheap and flexible way of breaking your office up into smaller and more manageable spaces.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A lot of people often underestimate how much time and money can go into certain aspects of an office fit-out. Things such as the carpets, ceilings and blinds etc. are often delegated to various different companies, which leads to more points of contact and, more often than not, higher prices. But wouldn't it be so much easier if you could leave all of these to one company? We can provide you with almost anything you need for your office fit out - fully project managed and with just one point of contact. Whilst we don't claim to be experts on everything you'll ever put in your office, we are experts on office logistics. Our sales team have a wealth of experience in office fit-outs which, when coupled with our knowledge of office furniture and fittings, can help you to really get the most out of your office. And, to top it all off, if you let us handle everything for you we can offer you excellent discount opportunities. </span><br />

The popularity of open plan office spaces have increased dramatically in recent years as companies look to new methods of improving productivity. The importance of maintaining a happy workforce has been described as the driving force behind the development of open plan offices, with the social element of the workplace becoming the focal point of the new layouts.<br />
<br />
It's thought that open plan offices were initially developed to allow managers to keep a closer eye on their employees, but as practices changed over time and more workers gained increased autonomy this became less of a priority. Instead the focus was shifted onto creating open and sociable working groups. Clusters of desks became a popular site, with teams of up to six or eight people working together and embracing the social side of the workplace. The office is now a fine balancing act: encourage the sociability of a relaxed team atmosphere, whilst maintaining a productive and efficient workforce.<br />
<a href="http://www.verveworkspace.co.uk/" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="office space" border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9DLApWHvhMCBh0aKDOICtw8kyC_5SRXNE4zovZdcAHJI_a5SIFdsW8MasId-Gl8z1ooC3kWgr4c53wHEoSdj4E9LoOzvNdazUblNvinftFCa1uuH7CovkbOv2IMLFSHQLfmtsHdYsvu0/s320/102989_1.jpg" title="" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
One effective method for maintaining this balance is the use of desk mounted screens. By dividing clusters of workers and creating obviously individual workstations within a team environment, clear boundaries can be set. This encourages workers to be separate and to work individually, but in maintaining proximity to other workers they still have the social element of their team atmosphere. This also helps to encourage positive relationships around the office - as friendships can develop and make everyone's work life more enjoyable and thus boost productivity. Equally however, people can of course just as easily not get along. Working in close proximity with the same people can lead to disagreements or feuds, so it's also important to manage the nature of these relationships to prevent them from becoming counter productive. Again, the open plan office is a balancing act - which it's very important to get right!<br />
<br />
Your needs for an open plan office will generally depend on the nature of your business: your need for privacy, how relaxed the environment is and how well you want to be able to watch over your employees (not that you'd ever admit to it!). Whatever structure and ethos you want to create around your office, we can help you to achieve it. All you have to do is let us know what you're trying to achieve and let us do the rest! We have a free space planning and CAD service that can help you create the office of your dreams - whether that means it's open plan or not!<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">In late 2012 <a href="http://www.pataross.com/" target="_blank">Pataross Projects</a>, a London based interior design company, got in touch with us about an exciting project they were working on for an estate agency in Brighton. They wanted to create a really contemporary and upmarket space, taking advantage of modern designs and finishes to bring an upmarket and stylish feel to the office.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">With a strong corporate image already in place, we wanted to continue the modern theme with contemporary white desks and matching storage. These were used so as to not overpower the estate agents' corporate colour (blue), which was already planned to be used sparingly yet effectively around the office. White finishes are ideal for creating a light and open finish, and this is exactly the effect that was hoping to be achieved. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Partitioning was removed to open up the space, and glass walls were added to encourage light to pass through the office. This reflected really nicely with the bright furniture, and the effect was a welcoming and cheery office. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We supplied clusters of white MFC bench desks for the main workspace. These were compact to make maximum use of space, but the worktops themselves were left open for flexible use. Without screens, the bench system was a lot more accommodating for a range of uses, and this also helped to make the office feel more spacious. One key element of the desks was the sliding top, which offers a space to hide cables and wires away. This is an essential part in maintaining a modern and spacious feeling office space.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The boardroom table, which was to the back of the office through the glass panels, was designed to contrast the work desks but to tie in with the other fittings and furnishings around the office. A natural walnut table, with a clean cut panel base, really finished off the office space nicely: it created a more formal space for the client, but maintained the contemporary and welcoming feel that they wanted to achieve. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Pataross came to us with a really clear idea of what they wanted to achieve for their client, and they already had plans in place about how they wanted to achieve this. Whilst we love helping our customers to achieve the design goals they've already set themselves, we also have our own space planning and design services to take you from the first step through to the last. So whether you want us to help you carry out your plans, or to help you formulate them in the first place, we'd love to give you a hand!</span><br />

Once upon a time, a reception was thought of as an over sized desk for an overworked administrator - but this is an attitude that seems to have been left well behind. Your reception is now seen as the first port of call for any guest to your business, and it's an important opportunity to make a first impression.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Visitors to your business need to feel welcome and comfortable in your reception, and whilst we know nothing will beat a friendly personal greeting - a welcoming space will go a long way. It goes without saying that the more welcome somebody is made to feel, the more likely they are to want to return - and this applies perfectly to your reception area. <br />
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; text-align: center;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
<br />
Your greeting space is also the perfect opportunity to illustrate your businesses' personality. You're likely to have a large variety of things in there, so the scope for customisation is huge. You can choose the finish and style of the reception desk and coffee tables, the fabrics, colours and designs of the seating and much more, so you need to make sure that these reflect your company ethos and portray the right messages. With so much to choose from, you can click on any of the images in this article to browse our site and the huge range of reception furniture on offer.<br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm sure we all remember sitting in school at those wobbly, marked tables with the chewing gum stuck to the bottom. And there's the chairs: unsteady, uncomfortable and with a couple of screws loose. Not exactly the best of your memories from your days in education, but that doesn't have be the case anymore. We have a huge selection of furniture that is ideal for any learning environment - from reconfigurable and shaped tables through to a selection of seating options. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Seating is an important part of any learning environment - particularly in schools, where we all know how fidgety children can be at the best of times! If they have chairs that fit their needs, they are more likely to relax and be comfortable in their education. Our selection of classroom seating ranges from age 3 - adult, so we will have something to suit every classroom. The colour options on offer also provide you with flexibility to mould your classroom as you please - with a selection of bright and exuberant colours, or more dulcet and calming tones. </span><br />
