When you want to reinvent your office space you will have to go through both the planning and design phase. Office space designs need to account for both the present and future needs of a company. It needs to be flexible enough to accommodate future changes of organization and occupancy issues without having to start all over from scratch.
To tackle the task of creating a dynamic office space plan, you need to create prototype designs or typicals.
Why Should You Create Prototype Designs?
You should create prototype designs for your office space, prior to remodeling, to help you dynamically design and furnish your office space.
Office space planning should aim to make an office as productive and comfortable of a work environment as possible. It is important that organization is paramount to serve your office needs as best as possible. However, properly approached, the aesthetics of the space does not have to take a back seat to the all important organizational component.

What To Consider While Planning For Your Office Space Design And Furnishing?
The first thing to consider when planning your office space is your budgeting capacity. Budgeting capacity consist of both business needs and monetary figures. You need to know what you are willing to pay to get the results you desire from your office space. Having an idea of your budget will save you lots of time and disappointment of falling in love with furniture that you can’t afford. Once you set an estimated budget, you can then decide on what office furniture and general office material you would like to use to transform your vision into reality.
Next you will have to get an accurate count of the number of employees who will be occupying the office space. This figure will help you predict roughly how much furniture you will need in the office, as well as how to layout the furniture for the best comfort of the occupants.
You should pick office furniture based on the type of work your employees will conduct in this office space. You should also take in account any special needs for disabled employees.
Remember, features and layouts are a big part of your work space plan. You should have in your plan spacing for all your required private offices, lobby / reception area, open work areas, a storage area, restrooms, conference rooms and a lunch room.
