The introduction of computers into the office as well as tablets, and mobile phones in some cases has helped to change the way everyone works, making work more efficient and easier. What hasn\u2019t changed too much is the traditional office layout but this could soon be transformed as we all get used to not being chained to the desk by the wires that once powered various devices. <\/p>\n
Change hasn\u2019t happened yet of course. The average office worker will still be turning up for work at 9am grabbing a coffee and then sitting static at a desk for the best part of eight hours. Yet when you look at how technology has advanced, then it is a mystery why we still stick to the old habits. <\/p>\n
The standard office furniture consists of desks, chairs, maybe a sofa or two and a large meeting table. This could however soon be replaced with \u2018smart furniture\u2019 which allows you to plug in and charge up mobiles, and tablets or areas that allow us to move around and be more mobile. Furniture for collaborative workspaces is likely to be far more radically designed in the not too distant future. <\/p>\n
What will remain however is the office as a place to meet face to face. While technically the need for an office no longer really exists there is still no technological substitute for real human interaction in the workplace. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
