7 interior design tips and tricks for your commercial space
Interior design has a huge impact on commercial spaces like offices, retail shops, hotels, and restaurants. You can ask me, how does it make an impact? The answer is that we are living in the modern era. Everything changed dramatically after early 2000 (2010- present). Everything means everything such as people’s choices, tastes, likes, or dislikes
Suppose you are a dealer of a branded product like Bata, Apex, or Raymond’s. But you are selling it on a footpath. Will anyone believe that it is the original product?? But the same product if you exhibit in a well decorated and well-designed showroom people will come and buy from your showroom without any doubt. The same goes with restaurants, you are offering quality foods but if you cannot provide healthy environments for your customer then there is no use for your quality foods. Because from stats, we came to know that people do not visit the restaurant for not only quality foods besides foods they prefer a relaxing environment.
What an interior designer will do??
An interior design company will not make your commercial space beautiful but also make your space functional by using every inch of your place properly
In this blog, we will share some amazing interior design tips and tricks for your commercial space so that you can achieve a cost-effective, efficient, engaging, and unique commercial space while you are doing interior design for your commercial spaces.
1. Choose Quality Material:
No matter which type of interior design you are doing whether it is commercial or residential choosing quality material is mandatory. It is the initial phase of your interior construction. If this phase goes right everything will go right.
In commercial spaces like showrooms or offices or restaurants ensuring quality interior material or equipment is a must because if you cannot ensure quality furniture like sofa sets, your client won’t feel comfortable. That will create a bad impression on the client’s mind. Moreover, interior design is not for a limited period.
Interior materials are always costly. Interior materials like boards, paints, etc. price have increased dramatically post-pandemic due to the unavailability of products. So when you will buy material for your commercial space interior design you should keep in mind the timelessness of that material. Suppose you have rented a commercial space for your place for 10 years, please make sure that the material you have brought for your interior design, has a minimum lifespan of 10 years. An experienced interior design company will help you not only to choose quality material but also they will make sure that the material is cost-effective.
2. Choose the suitable floor plan:
You will have to choose a floor plan depending on your available space, commercial space types, and the needs of your company. There are two types of floor plans widely used in Bangladesh, they are open floor plan and closed floor plan.
Traditional offices use enclosed rooms and cubicles to keep people divided and give employees personal space. Modern days most offices prefer an open floor plan to enable people to work in a communal space.
An open floor plan is very much suitable when you have a small space to deal with. On the other hand, workers feel fresh while working in an open space. The disadvantage is that noise control is often difficult on these types of floor plans while you do not have a separate conference room for discussion in your office spaces.
A closed floor plan is always effective for individual productivity. For people who are in creative departments or Office spaces that provide creative services such as software firms and ad agencies, an open floor plan is strictly prohibited because creative-minded people need personal space for thinking. Now you should decide which type of company you are and which criteria match the best for your office or commercial space. In a showroom or restaurant, we always prefer an open floor plan as a customer has free access to this type of commercial space.
3. Create a balance between aesthetic and comfort
Always try to make a balance between aesthetic and functional. You have made a wonder full commercial space that looks amazing and aesthetic but your space is suffocating. Then, this wonderful aesthetic appearance is useless.
You have made a wonderful restaurant with proper lighting, and proper color but the furniture like sitting arranged exists on your space is not comfortable at all. Just think about it, if your customer does not feel comfortable would they prefer to have a meal in your restaurant after their first visit?? People like to have a meal in a restaurant with comfort. The same goes for office spaces. If your employees do not get a comfortable workstation, it will hamper their productivity. So you will have to take care of both aesthetic look and comfort.
4. Choose Color wisely:
Choosing the right color is always very important whether it is commercial space or residential space. You can choose the right color by analyzing color psychology. As to color psychology color has a huge impact on the human mind, such as red color signifies energy, power, strength, determination as well as passion, and desire. The green color signifies growth, harmony, freshness, and nature. This color is widely used for theme color because it is claimed to be beneficial for the human mind and body.
If you give a good look at color psychology documentation you will get a proper color idea for your commercial spaces. If these things seem difficult, I suggest you go with your brand color. Besides this, you can choose a neutral color like light blue, white, or ash color for having a natural environment in your commercial space.
5. Do not be afraid to change your plan:
You have planned something which was looking good on paper but while you are implementing these functions physically it does not meet your requirements or it is not looking so good physically. In this situation do not be afraid to change your plan. Discuss with your interior design company / or contractor about this issue they will give you a proper suggestion and try to find another way to satisfy you. It might penalize you some money but do not bother about it because interior design is not for one time. So do not be afraid to change your plan.
6. Safety Management :
Safety is the first and foremost requirement of any kind of space. If the appearance of your commercial space is hampered due to safety, do not bother about your appearance go with safety management. As you have ensured the safety that does not mean that, it has to be ugly. An experienced interior design company will ensure safety without hampering the appearance of your commercial space.
7. Hire a professional:
