The office furniture you choose will depend on what type of office will be using it, the size of the staff and what they will be doing, and the equipment that will be used.
If it is the office of a doctor or dentist, they usually have rows of files along the walls that represent their patients. There is a receptionist answering phones and booking appointments, so she will be using a computer and there is a certain type of desk or work area for that. A file clerk will be sorting and alphabetizing files, so he or she will need a desk with plenty of counter space for his or her tasks. An accountant is usually also in these offices to track the billing. The accountant will be in a separate, semi-private cubicle, also with a computer and the necessary desk or work space for that.
The dentist or doctor has rooms for his patients, but he will also need his own office. He will have a phone with an intercom system for paging him, room on the side of his desk for personal files, and some additional shelving, or a book shelf for reference books and leaflets.
A telemarketing company needs very different furniture. Rows of desks with computers and phones on them are usually all that is needed. An area for a pad for notes and some pens is also needed, but probably not much more than that.
Printing firms and publishing houses may need drafting tables and large counter tops in order to examine work for final approval. The computers are also used to pay attention to detail before printing, and some counter space is needed there, as well. Insurance offices, real estate office, and sales offices may all share the desks and equipment at different times, as these individuals usually work out of the office at least part of the day. They come back to check emails, print out information, and so on. They need computes, phones, and maybe some file cabinets, and a common printer for all.
The work space needs to be thought of and designed before furniture is ordered. The way procedure works at the office may also be a determining factor as to where people sit and how they work.
If you are the boss, you will want a private area of your own. Confidential information may be filed and stored away in your office, and they might have a lock on the drawer. You will need to be away from the rest of the office, and yet you need to be in close enough proximity to communicate with the staff as needed.
An ergonomic chair should be considered for certain staff members. Those who type a lot, and those who sit most of the day at their computers, need to feel comfortable in order to perform their duties efficiently. If someone is expected to be on the phone for most of the day, an ear piece should be available for him. Some office furniture is a bit more expensive, but it will be worth it when your staff is comfortable and produces accordingly.
