BOARDROOM FURNITURE. THE 5 NECESSARY ELEMENTS

Our 50 years of experience in the sector has allowed us to know what are the usual needs. In this post we will explain what the basic pieces of boardroom furniture are. Take note.

Obviously, the furniture for a boardroom can vary depending on the use and size of the space. However, there are a number of pieces that are a must. After that, it’s a matter of matching the décor to the company’s corporate image.

Now we review those elements of boardroom furniture that can’t be missed.

The table for the meeting room is the first indispensable element. Depending on the size of the room, you can choose a model with more or less capacity.

There are several possibilities and you can choose between rectangular, oval or round tables. Whatever the choice is, it is essential that they offer comfort to the users.

Certainly it must have an adequate height and a smooth and pleasant surface. Melamine table tops are usually a very successful solution. In addition, it is interesting that the table has integrated connectivity. This means having several sockets for connecting electronic devices. USB connections should not be forgotten either.

It should also be borne in mind that the boardroom can be used by customers, suppliers or employees. For this reason, the table should reinforce the company’s professional image. The appearance of the desk should always be in keeping with the company’s corporate culture.

The second essential element among the furniture for boardrooms are the chairs. They are usually not equipped with casters because mobility is supposed to be less than in an individual office.

DESMON’s advice is to use ergonomic chairs. The reason is that users can spend hours sitting in these meetings and should be comfortable. With an adjustable chair, it will be much easier to adopt a good posture that facilitates concentration.

Ideally, of course, they should be padded to increase comfort. The fabric should be of high quality and breathable. Regarding the color, the ideal is to go for neutral tones that have an impact on an image of elegance and modernity.

In addition to tables and chairs, it is always interesting to have a cabinet that provides storage space. Whether it is a low cabinet or a full-size cabinet, it is important that it has enough shelves and can support weight.

In this cabinet you can store some audiovisual equipment, documentation, catalogs and even laptops. It is also ideal for storing office supplies that may be needed during the meeting to take notes.

Nowadays, videoconferencing is a very common form of communication in many companies and offices. For this reason, it is always a good idea to include a TV screen in the boardroom furniture.

Computers and other devices can be connected to the device. It will be possible to see the interlocutor perfectly or to review data and statistics from Powerpoint files.

Let’s talk now about the walls of the boardroom. Although it is not a piece of furniture per se, it is extremely important.

It is advisable that the walls of the boardroom also function as acoustic insulation. In other words, conversations that take place inside the room should not disturb other employees. In addition, it is often advisable to keep these conversations confidential.

This can be achieved by constructing the room with partitions that will reduce the propagation of noise. The panels can be opaque and include rock wool. Another possibility is to opt for transparent walls made with double-glazed partitions. This last option allows total visibility of the room but keeps noise under control.

Our last piece of advice on boardroom furniture is to put yourself in the hands of professionals. In DESMON we have a multidisciplinary team that is responsible for the design, manufacture and assembly of all our pieces.
