Spring is the perfect time of year to revisit your tired or outdated customer-ready spaces. Everyone feels ready for something new, and you can give this to those who walk through your door with a simple spring refresh.
Below, we’ve highlighted a few ways you can start to expand and rejuvenate your business’s spaces, no matter what your budget.
Audit your current space and explore potential extensions
Before you begin, you need to know exactly what you have to work with and what potential it holds.
Think about:
- For indoor spaces or existing outdoor spaces, assess what your current floorplan is and what doesn’t feel ‘right’ or has proven a sticking point for either customers or staff.
- If you’re looking to add a new outdoor dining area to your business, then start with measuring and assessing any space you have, and consider what type of outdoor commercial furniture might work best, both in terms of design and flow.
- How you could maximise the space or make it more versatile using stackable or foldable furniture? This is great if you don’t want to offer outdoor areas all year round.
- What types of commercial chairs and tables will complement the style of the space? For smaller, enclosed spaces, bulky furniture may feel too cluttered and claustrophobic. However, if you have expansive spaces that you want to feel more cosy, then chunky furniture could work perfectly.
- What is the best floorplan for your guests/customers? Make sure to plot out different layouts to see if you can improve the flow of the space or open it up further to give the illusion of more room.
Once you know the answers to these three points, it is a lot easier to know what furniture to look for, making your refresh feel like a breeze.
Focus on a simple colour refresh
If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to give your business a makeover – without having to spend a large chunk of your budget – then opting for a simple colour change can help create a freshness with minimal fuss.
There are two options when it comes to changing the colour scheme of your contract furniture:
- Invest in new upholstery for chairs you already have and that don’t need swapping out completely. This might require sending your chairs to a specialist upholsterer, so it’s worth keeping in mind how this might affect business while this is being done.
- Opt for new furniture that keeps the same design as your current furniture, but is a fresh new colour. This allows for an easier transition, can be more budget-friendly and offers minimal disruption to your business.
This can also work well if you’re thinking about giving your walls a new coat of paint or you’ve decided to change up your branding. It’s a great way to create a feeling of a refurbishment, but at a fraction of the cost.
Replace only what you need if budgets are tight
If you’ve been looking at your contract furniture and have been thinking that some of your tables and chairs are looking less than inviting, then there’s nothing wrong with simply swapping out what needs replacing.
Even just adding a few new pieces to your current furniture can make a big impact.
Our sales team has regularly worked with businesses to find the perfect design or colour match for their existing furniture. Or, if your current designs are out of stock or discontinued, we can help you find the next closest match, so that you can keep your decor looking clean and consistent.
