Vital-Office® Color Concept

Colors are the easiest way to generate a good mood. Some rules are important concerning the use in offices.

If we look at the cycle of the seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter, it quickly becomes clear which season produces the best mood. When, after the short, grey days of rain, slush or snow of the winter, the days at last become longer, the sun shines and the landscape becomes colorful, then your mood improves as well.

The colors on a sunny day are absolutely clear and bright. In contrast, on a gloomy rainy day in winter all colors appear in a grey shade. In northern countries (for example, Scandinavia), where the winters last several months, people often become depressed, due to the bad mood produced by the grey landscape over such a long period of time. In contrast, we admire the joie de vivre of the people in the more southern countries, where the sun shines more. The gloriously colorful landscape produces a good mood.

In view of this simple logic, is it not almost perverse when offices are installed with furnishings in all possible shades of grey? Different shades of grey on walls, ceilings and furniture in the office do not only affect the mind but also creativity, focus and productivity. This affects all the employees from the operative employee through to the managing director.

Anyone who has tried to present a color concept to a group of decision-makers (owner, managing director, secretaries and other involved parties), knows how difficult it is. It is impossible to conform with and fulfil the tastes and ideas of each individual. It is not surprising, if interior designers and architects are happy to avoid this debacle and simply take the lowest common denominator. Logically, that is red, um… blue, also not? .. let’s take grey then.

To make it easier for the parties involved and decision-makers to decide about colors, in the following we show different systems which help to make the topic comprehensible in analytical terms.

Vitalizing lightning in offices:

Bad lightning causes stress, health problems and less productivity, while a lightning concept based on human needs unleashes powers over the whole working day.

Reflection, glare and extreme changes in light put strain on the eyes.

The problem is the contrast from dark (inside room) to light (outside window). This contrast let your eyes continuously

work while opening and closing it’s pupils.

Generally it is recommended that computer screens should be placed about 90° to light rays.

For communication and collaboration the layout and partitioning of offices is most important.

We have very intensely studied Feng Shui and found that many basic parts of Feng Shui are corresponding with ergonomics. The difference mainly is the kind of language used. While ergonomics is in scientific abstract language, Feng Shui describes complex psychological issues in an easy understandable picture like language.

To enhance collaboration also some structural methods of Feng Shui fit well to structure office.

Ergonomics and health management principles

What is ergonomics?

Everyone has heard of ergonomics - after all, the word is widely used in advertising. But to think of ergonomics simply as a way of designing more comfortable goods misses the point - there is much more to ergonomics.

The word ergonomics is perhaps a little intimidating, but behind it lies a very simple idea.

  • Ergonomics is about ‘fit’: the fit between people, the things they do, the objects they use and the environments they work in.
  • If a good fit is achieved, stress is reduced.
  • We are more comfortable and can do things more quickly and easily, and we also make fewer mistakes.

The industrial science, Ergonomics, deals with the stresses and needs of working people. By recognizing and analyzing them the work environment can be better adjusted to the employees.

The main task of ergonomics is avoiding incorrect operations in the security-relevant areas like airplanes, cars and power plants, by adjusting the material for the work and the work environment to the person in an optimal way.

The preserving of the employee’s health is a logical consequence.

Even if you already have a concrete architectural draft, it still pays to have a second expert’s opinion. We carefully check its ergonomic pros and cons, its functionality and performance enhancing qualities.

Our service is available in parts. You can choose to start with a draft’s analysis or have an all inclusive conception.
