Sometimes when people hear the word modular in conjunction with office furniture they assume this means limited styles and features of basic functional office items. In fact, modular office furniture today can range from those very basic pieces to beautiful, modern and elegant office suites.
The key to considering the modular options in office furniture is the versatility it provides. When office furniture stores use the word modular, they mean that the furniture is designed and manufactured in modules or components that will work in any combination with each other.
Depending on the collection there can be different components in any modular office furniture design. The better the quality of the manufacturer the more options there can be to personalize the look to suit any office space. With the option to configure the various components to match the physical space and individual preferences, this design option is a very good choice.
Desks
The centerpiece of most of the modular units will be a desk. They can range from more of a workspace area to an executive desk. There may also be reception area desks as well, all which offer different features and options.
The desks can be open, more like a table, or they can have the traditional closed look of a desk with additional drawers and storage space. Some desks may offer the option of different features and options that allow for customization right from the distributor.
The desks can be wood or high-quality laminate. Some models will even allow for personalization of the hardware selected for the desks and cabinets.
Chairs
Chairs include both the executive chairs as well as chairs for visitors and guest. In the modular design, these will have the same lines and design features as the desk and cabinets or storage area, creating a very uniform look.
The chairs can also be selected to match the reception desk to create a beautiful look in a waiting area. These same chairs can be a perfect addition to other areas of the office where they are needed.
Storage
With modular office furniture, there is a wide range of storage components that perfectly match with the desk. These storage features can include credenzas, rolling file cabinets that fit under the desktop, book cases, large storage drawers or small overhead cupboards.
With the modular versatility it is easy to add, expand or even reconfigure these storage components. With the confidence that everything will work together, adding to office storage space has never been easier or more beautiful.
