Meeting Room Furniture

There’s a lot more to designing the perfect meeting room than just choosing some tables and chairs. Careful thought and planning must be put into selecting the ideal office meeting room furniture to suit all your requirements. This is a place where your employees will meet to discuss ideas with one another, so productivity needs to be at its highest. To achieve this, you need to go back to the basics of space and comfort and then build up from there. If your employees feel relaxed and at ease, then they are more likely to be productive.

A modern and creative meeting room doesn’t have to cost you the Earth; designing it can be done to suit any budget. Consider the type of meeting room you are shopping for. If you’re going to be catering for presentation meetings based on screens or spoken, then you’ll need clear lines of sight for everyone involved. If it’s just a small group of people meeting, consider office furniture such as large tables and comfortable chairs. Rapid Office can help.

Contemporary Meeting Room Furniture

We have a huge range of options and styles of office meeting room furniture to suit more contemporary spaces. We can help you create a space designed with minimal clean lines that encourages more productivity among your employees. Below are some options we offer for contemporary meeting room furniture:

Meeting Pods

Meeting pods are an excellent style of office meeting room furniture, particularly for meetings of all kinds. Many of them are ‘collapsible’, which allows them to be taken apart and set up anywhere you need them, enabling maximum space planning. They also provide your workers with complete privacy for whatever they are working on, visually and acoustically. Depending on your exact requirements, meeting pods come in all shapes and sizes, including circular, rectangular, or square, and you have the option of adding sliding doors. To blend in with the rest of your workspace, meeting pods can be commissioned to compliment your office colours or even personalised with an office logo.

Media Unit

Some meetings only require a couple of people to be in attendance. These meetings can be very intimate and casual, which calls for relaxing and laid-back office meeting room furniture. A media unit is perfect for this as it will consist of a high free-standing bench or table surrounded by as many ergonomic seats as you need. The great thing about this type of office furniture is that it can accommodate a large TV used for video calls or presentations.

Modular Screen System

As a meeting area design, the screened meeting area is becoming more and more popular simply because it is a truly innovative idea. The curved divider is attached to the back of a semi-circle couch, giving users visual and acoustic privacy. The design of this type of meeting area also means that reverberated sound is reduced by 40%.

Private Meeting Rooms

For those critical meetings that can’t go wrong, you must make an impression. Bespoke office furniture Essex is best for private meeting rooms as it gives off a strong sense of professionalism. Long oval or barrel tables are a popular choice, coupled with the most comfortable ergonomic office chairs available, as your employees may be sitting in there for some time. An oval or barrel table is essential as its shape encourages everyone to get involved, mainly if there is a presentation.

Why are meeting rooms important?

Ultimately, as an employer, meeting rooms allow you to communicate with your employees more privately and intimately to further your business. By being cut off from the rest of the work going on around you, they can help you stay focused on a task. They also help you and your company present yourself to new and existing clients professionally to ensure that your business relationship continues.
