If you are relocating your office to Milwaukee, be sure to take a look at the recently elected ‘Coolest Offices’ of Milwaukee for the best designing ideas.
Today, offices are not as simple as stacking cubicles side by side in a monotone color. That ship has sailed and has opened doors to fun and creative office designs. The most recent trend in office designs has been the concept of ‘open-space’. As implied, open-space offices are basically open for everyone to see and hear each other. This trend launched from the notion of companies breaking down the barriers between each class of workers. Now ‘my door is open’ has been taken to a new level since many offices have gotten rid of doors all together.
In a way, the open-space trend encourages a trusting and friendlier environment, unlike the old designs where everyone is hiding behind their doors or high-divider cubicles.
As for Milwaukee, there are a number of top-notch office designs and the Milwaukee Business Journal regularly features them. This week’s pic was the Harley Davidson’s Headquarters on West Juneau Avenue.
Harley Davidson Inc’s does not save its top of the line motorcycles just for its client, they also display them for their employees. Their unique space features many memorabilia and luxury motorcycles throughout the office. Apart from the visual appeal, this office has an onsite restaurant, dry cleaners, nursery rooms, fitness center, and spa facility. Although it seems like a little much, providing all of these amenities actually provides a more efficient work force.
By having daily necessities such as a nursery for mothers, the Harley Davison employees can be more focused on work. The future of offices are not only fashionably trendy, they are going to transform the work performance.
