Private Offices
The new way:
Modular configurations
 
 
 
 
Advantages:
- Can be designed for wall-to-wall work surfaces
- No concern for fading or dye lot issues on work surface with future additions
- Office adapts to the user's work style; designed to fit the function
- Configurations are not typically based on a right- or left-handed style
- Adjustable to fit different personnel size
- Easier to utilize the vertical height of the space
- User is removed from the typical "power position" and into a more friendlier setting
- Walls can be used for support, which is more economical
- Configurations easily hide wires and cords
|
Disadvantages:
|
The old way:
Desks, credenzas and hutches; all free standing furniture (i.e. case goods)
 
 
 
Advantages:
- Simple to design and specify
- Very nice aesthetics
|
Disadvantages:
- Often built for a left- or right-"hand" office; only 50% reusable
- Weight - extremely heavy
- User must adapt to the furniture
- Not technologically friendly
- Often must be configured so that the user's back is to the office door
