Is your office conference room a place you enjoy meeting clients, or are you reluctant to bring them in, opting to meet them at their office or a coffee shop, instead?
You know what bad conferences rooms are like: too many chairs crowded in at the table, seating adjusted for someone much taller or shorter than you, stiffness after three-hour long meetings …
It’s hard to think that you can be productive in a setting like this, yet so many of us ignore our physiological needs.
When collaborating, people need to move around. They shift positions in-place or pull chairs from one spot in the room to another. This has to be easy or people just won’t bother. Cumbersome or heavy chairs won’t be pulled into a room for extra seating. People will choose to stand instead of sit. If their chair prevents body movement, they’ll focus on their more immediate restlessness, withdrawing from the idea flow and connections with colleagues.
Do any of these scenes sound familiar? Fortunately, Hyperspace is aware of these bugs and has solutions for your team. We’ve compiled a list of the best features for conference room seating and three levels of chairs for you to choose to meet your office’s needs.
