Select a wall colour
Choosing a wall colour for your new workspace would be cost-effective and easy. You would not need much time to get it done, the paint job could be completed in less than a day, therefore you could get the job done during the weekend so your staff and would be able to come back to with fresh walls.
We would recommend fun colours if your business is in the creative space, however if you are a corporate keeping it classy with the simple black and white theme effect is one of the classics for a high-end corporate workplace.
Wall décor
You want your staff to enjoy their work, you could further touch up with easy budget friendly fairy lights. You could cut out old newspaper articles or magazines and frame them with black photo frames. This would give your work space a bold touch.
The reason for the newspaper articles is to add a creative, formal effect but also because you want to be budget friendly.
Plants
Your work space is where you and your work team would spend half of their day in, you need to ensure there is all life in there. The easiest way to do so is by purchasing small plants such as cacti for the tables or wall plants.
You could find a variety of plants in your area that you could easily choose from for a very limited cost. It depends entirely on you!
Seating and desk arrangements
You could invest in one big round table where you have all your team mates work on depending on the field you are in; you could also have separate work place stations.
There could also be pillows instead of bean bags to sit on for chill time, you would save up money on this alternative.
Aroma of the workplace
You could easily switch up the style of your workplace by the aroma the workplace has- you could choose to add in lavender essence during the evening to calm the nerves down and you could add in a stronger essence in the day time, by doing this even if you have invested little in your workplace – the tone of your work place would change.
Depending on your niche, you could choose the correct essence and oil of your choice. Oils are cheaper than fancier candles! You also want to ensure that your staff are looked after and for that the tonality of the environment matters. Adding music would also be a soothing effect.
Allow your staff flexible working hours
If you are on a budget friendly pay roll, it would be best that you also allow your staff flexible working hours. This way, your staff would be happy to put in their hard work for a smaller pay roll because they have the freedom of their hours.
You could also hire undergraduates looking for work experience of high school leavers on internship basis to further reduce cost, but also give the staff a great work experience.
