Office Accessories

Selecting office furniture accessories for a commercial space need not mean sacrificing form for function, or function for form. Take the humble whiteboard, for example, this could be something as simple as back-painted glass mounted on the wall through to a full-blown designer piece conceived as part of an office suite.

Design is 360°, especially in an open-plan office, so elements that would traditionally be hidden from sight, such as to monitor arms, suddenly take centre stage. It may seem like overkill but even these functional items can be utilised to make or maintain a design statement. Monitor arms are office equipment that can also contribute to the design of an open-plan office.

Office buildings featuring expansive floor plates are all the rage and while the sense of space and natural light penetration are huge positives, it’s usually not too long before someone says: “Um, where do I hang my coat?” The Eames Hang It All is a stylish solution that adds a touch of design credibility to any space, while stand-alone coat racks can impart a whimsical look while keeping coats from being draped across the back of chairs-not a good look.

You’ve chosen the right workstations, the monitor arms look sensational, the glovebox is installed to keep all the cables seamlessly contained and then it hits you… connectivity, or more precisely, how are you going to get the power supply to the devices on the desk.  Luckily, there’s a below-deck, above-desk or in-desk power rail solution to suit any electrical and data cabling need.

That’s it, from reception to the board room, you’ve covered all the bases… but what about the restrooms? Surely there are limited opportunities to make a design statement here? Not so, even the oft-overlooked toilet roll holder can make a lasting impression. We’ve all been caught short with what to do with our mobile phone while in the loo, thankfully, Progretto’s double toilet roll holder with shelf means you’re free to… well… yes.
