5 Funky Design Features of a Modern Office Space

Working in an office doesn't need to be boring. You just need a bit of imagination. Personalize your workspace and you will find yourself feeling much more at ease while you are at the office. Here are a few off-beat office design ideas that could help get your creative juices flowing. 

1. A Standing Desk
   Many people swear by standing desks, claiming that they promote higher energy levels and heightened productivity. You might not want to work from a standing desk all day, but you could spend a few hours on your feet whenever you need energy. 
 
2. Ergonomic Desk Chairs
   Plastic chairs were introduced into the market in 1996. We've come a long way since then. The desk chairs of today look futuristic and were engineered to provide the optimal level of support for people who sit for extended periods of time at work.
 
3. Custom Chair Mats for Hard Floors
   If your office has hardwood, concrete, or tile floors, you might consider purchasing custom size chair mats for hard floors. Not only will your chair glide smoothly from place to place, you can get different shapes and colors as well. It might not seem like it would make a big difference, but office chair mats are great for accenting and work optimization. 
 
4. Strobe Lights
   Maybe you should go easy on this idea. Instead of intense flashing strobes you might find in an 80s disco, go for string or rope lights that have a strobe setting. This is perfect for late nights and office parties. If anything can make your office feel cozier, it's cool lighting features.
 
5. A Chess Board
   If you ever have colleagues in your office for meetings or breaks, a chess board could be a stimulating distraction from the hustle and bustle of daily life.
