Utilising Glass In Your Office Refurbishment

When it comes to office refurbishment, one of the initial planning stages will be determining the materials you will use and weighing up the pros and cons for every aspect of the structure you plan to develop.
Adding glass to your office design can offer a number of benefits to the modern office, and with glass being a highly available material, the possibilities are endless in finding what works for your business and your office design.
Creates illusion
Using glass in your office can create the illusion to make it look like the space is bigger and more open, this is because of its transparency.
If you have a smaller office and you’re trying to get the most out of it using glass partitions can be really beneficially to opening up the space you have and creating a more open office, in turn making the space look much bigger than it actually is.
Personalisation
The great thing about glass is that there are so many ways you can personalise it without causing any permanent damage to the material and giving you the freedom to change over time such as adding manifestations to glazed partitioning.
Many businesses like to use frosting, or office logos to give their office design a more personalised and unique look, with many companies offering film and plastics that can go over glass without damaging the glass itself, so you can make changes when and where you feel it appropriate to do so, whilst maintaining the longevity and quality of the glass.
Low maintenance
Glass is low maintenance to look after, and it won’t wear as long as you take good care of it.
Glass is extremely easy to clean and keep clean for longer periods, and won’t be discoloured like many other material options can over time.
Expands natural light
One of the biggest benefits of using glass in your office is how it optimises and expands natural light so it can travel freely throughout your office, allowing everyone to take advantage of the benefits that come with being exposed to as much natural light possible whilst working.
Natural light has been proven to boost mood, wellbeing, positivity, moral, productivity and motivation, so using glass will give you the opportunity to maximise the effects if you use it in the right places in your office refurbishment, as light travels through glass freely.
Cost effective
Thanks to it’s high availability, glass is extremely cost effective especially when you consider it’s longevity when it is well maintained.
If you’re working to a budget, or you want to use materials in your office that are sustainable offering longevity, glass is a no brainer for your material of choice wherever you can find ways to use it through out your re-structure.
