commercial building design matters.
An Underused Branding Opportunity
Lighting And Ventilation

Dynamic spaces
Plants and foliage
An Underused Branding Opportunity
A lot of thought and brainstorming goes into 
effectively designing a commercial space.
 Branding is all about having a brand identity, 
positioning your company to reflect that identity, 
and illustrating personality. 
It is not just branding for your customers but your 
employees will also feel honored to work in such an 
environment. 
Plan the right design with your 
commercial office renovator to build your 
brand.
Lighting And Ventilation
A recent study shows that in buildings with good 
daylight conditions workers are 18% more 
productive, students achieve 5-14% higher test 
scores, and retail spaces achieve 15-40% higher sales.
At the same time, better ventilation was shown to 
improve workplace productivity by 11%. So, it is very 
natural that the office owners and builders are 
keeping these design needs in mind.
 Keep your employees healthy and alert to keep them 
productive.
Department Specific Goals
Each department is important and every department 
will have specific goals. Designing all the 
departments in the same way is not ideal. 
For example, a design team may enjoy a colourful, 
creative, free-flowing space whereas the accounts 
team may want things very standardized and 
organized. 
Understand your team’s needs to design the perfect 
space for them.
Dynamic Spaces
Many new offices use working space dynamically. 
You can discuss this with your commercial 
contractor to make optimum use of the space.
Unused spaces can be used for everything from 
physical fitness to gamming to nap time. Removing 
partitions between offices may elevate employee 
interaction and innovation. 
This will also make the office space look larger. Plan 
to incorporate multi-purpose open spaces in your 
new office.
Plants And Foliage
Going green is a major interior design trend. It 
improves air quality and these plants have the power 
to reduce stress, anxiety, and fatigue.
