Must Have Accessories to Promote Office Well-Being

August 13, 2019

The average person will spend over 90,000 hours at work during their lifetime, so ensuring one's well-being is nurtured in an office space is extremely important.

When planning or changing your office space, a small accessory can make a big difference. Here are a few of our favourites.

Logic Monitor Arms - Having the right ergonomic setup is an important part of encouraging healthy workplace practices. Part of this setup includes the addition of monitor arms to desk tops. Logic monitor arms can be used to mount one or more screens and can be set at custom heights to suit individual users ensuring long lasting comfort.

Planters - Introducing plants and greenery into a workspace has been one of the most effective ways to bring touches of nature into the office. Recent studies have shown that workers felt an improved sense of well-being when surrounded by biophilic elements. Our Globe, Universal and Trak planters are the perfect yet simple way to make plants a part of a workplace and can be added onto storage units or used in conjunction with our Trak workstation system.

Cushi - In addition to adding Logic Monitor Arms to your desk, our Cushi footrest completes this ergonomic set up. Created with health benefits in mind, Cushi prevents long and short-term health problems such as slow blood circulation, back tension and promotes proper posture.

Sparki - In a technological age, having power solutions easily available on your desk creates a more productive work lifestyle. Compact and sleek, our Sparki above desk power solution allows users access to a GPO and 2 USB ports.

How to Balance Work and Well-being

June 13, 2019

With a shift in the modern workplace and growth of technology, the increase in a more sedentary lifestyle has created movements to promote employee health and wellbeing. Working styles are constantly evolving to allow for a healthy balance between sitting, standing and walking. This includes the introduction of height adjustable desks and tables, like our Swish and Rize which are a perfect solution to encourage movement.

Height adjustable desks allow users to easily adjust their work surface from a sitting to a standing position with a single tool, giving the user complete control of how they work. In addition, our Rize range includes height-adjustable side tables and meeting tables allowing employees to mix up the way they collaborate and conduct meetings.

Three benefits of height adjustable desks include:

  • Improved Health - With the increased risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes from sitting all day, research has shown that switching to a sit-stand desk lowers blood sugar levels, lowers your risk of heart disease, improves metabolism and reduces back pain.

  • Improved Mood and Energy Levels - The popularity of sit-stand desks has had a positive impact on the employees overall well-being. By introducing desks like our Swish or Rize, users have shown to be less stressed and fatigued than those who remain seated all day.

  • Boosts Productivity - Being able to access a variety of postures throughout the day helps employees stay engaged with their work tasks. Standing has also been proven to stimulate circulation, sending more oxygen and nutrients to the brain, improving one's mental focus thus encouraging one to work more efficiently and increase performance.

Fresh Fit Out For Fastway

March 14, 2019

From the large open spaces to intimate executive offices, meeting rooms and breakout areas, Fastways new office exudes style and sophistication through a strong monochromatic palette. The strong contrast between fresh white interiors and black furniture seamlessly transitions from one room to the next for a consistent look and feel.

Welcoming visitors, our Jive reception counter is a grand feature in front of the slatted timber wall. Complimenting the space are Tex lounges and Drum coffee tables, creating a simple yet inviting entrance.

Mix bench seating and Cooper chairs pair with a Jive coffee table to divide the open plan areas forming a contemporary statement in each gathering space. Enhanced by the large natural light filled windows, hues of brown and grey add warmth and break the monochrome dynamic.

Our Benchwork workstations are used on the lower and upper level with Sonic task chairs, Globe pedestals, Screenwork screens and Logic monitor arms to cultivate working areas suitable to a vast range of needs. Breaking up the area is our Keywork table and Balance ottomans allowing different levels of function and collaboration.

Continuing on with the contrasting palette, the executive offices feature Keywork desks with Miro and Zorro chairs. Working symbiotically with the architectural details of the interiors, each office offers a warm and textured backdrop to the main open space.

Our Alex chairs and Dart tables were used in meeting rooms to establish more formal areas whilst maintaining a balance of simplicity and modernism through the dark oak finishes combined with natural light.

Finally moving into the lunch area, a fresh clean palette in contrast with the rest of the office has been established. Our Jive counter table and Zorro stools paired with the Halo counter table and Pac stools create a breakout area which emanates a calm and peaceful space for employees to take a break.

Different zones were created to establish a variety of functional workspaces including open plan work areas, meeting rooms, breakout rooms and informal meeting spaces. Fastways new office caters to every need of the modern employee.
