Your Office Sucks

If you’ve been following our blog for any amount of time, you know that we believe in sustainability. We even put it right in the company name to avoid confusion. While sustainability is at the core of everything we do, there are plenty of other reasons your company should undertake a renovation of it’s office space. I could write out a big long list with bullets, but let me sum up.

Your office sucks.

If you work for a company with leased office space, there is a very good chance your office genuinely, no two ways about it, unabashedly sucks. It’s probably beige, which isn’t even really a color, but a blah name for a blah non-color. It’s probably lit with ancient fluorescent technology in the most boring-directly-over-your-head-in-big-bright-squares kind of way. There are likely windows, and they’re likely far from your desk. You work on a boxy screen in a boxy cubicle in a boxy block of cubicles, on a boxy floor in a big box of a building. You get paid to think outside of one…but you’re in so many boxes everyday…it’s hard to know which one they mean. The air is stale, the carpet is old, it’s freezing in the summer from too much AC and stifling in the winter from too much heat. The conference rooms are just brighter versions of the box you work in all day. It makes you tired, makes you disinterested, makes you long to be outside. In short, your office, truly, and deeply sucks.

What if we could renovate that office? What if you could add some color and visual interest? What if we could re-light the space to add natural variations in color temperature and contrast? What if you ditched the boxes? What if your space was designed for the kind of work everyone does every day instead of the work the “average” office worker does everyday? What if you had access to privacy when you needed it and the ability to work somewhere comfortable when you wanted it? What if that new office also used less energy, made you more productive and actually improved your health?

There are dozens of reasons a renovation makes sense…reducing your company’s utility costs is just one of them.

The small businesses are getting ignored in these issues, especially when looking for small business loans or financing.
The big corporations don’t seem to have an issue raising money by selling bonds, big bank loans. Small business loans aren’t getting approved that’s why so many are looking to business cash advances to leverage their credit card receipts.
