Glass partitions can have a positive impact on any office: our office fit out experts explain their benefits.
Glass partitions are a favourite of many modern offices for their look, but also for the way they divide your space. Whilst opaque walls separate an office harshly, glass walls allow for privacy, but they don’t break up space visually. Read on for our tips on why glass partitions can be so beneficial.
Glass Partitions Provide Privacy
Every office needs to find a good balance between openness and privacy. Glass partitions can create sections of your office for rooms, meaning that you can have smaller spaces to have meetings. The transparency of glass allows for clearly defined boundaries without blocking them off from the rest of your group.
Glass Partitions Don’t Break Up the Office with Walls
Most offices consist of small teams, that in turn make up the bigger organisation. In order to improve productivity, most offices invest in dividers of some kind, and glass is a great way to partition, as it separates you without you being able to see each other. Opaque walls can be restrictive and create harsher boundaries.
Glass Partitions Look Classy
Glass is the chosen material for skyscrapers, modern houses and sports stadia alike because it looks stylish. If you’re looking for the same aesthetic with your office, glass partitions can be a good way to update the décor; they can show your workspace to be a modern place to work, and they’re very versatile.
Glass Partitions Can Soundproof
Acoustic partitions are the go-to glass partitions if you’re hoping to soundproof a room. Glass partitions though can somewhat soundproof too. If you have a noisy office that you’re partitioning, glass is popular material to offer a quieter space in which to have meetings.
Glass Partitions Can Convey the Appearance of a Larger Space
Big, open-plan offices have an unrestricted, spacious feel to them. Whilst they’re not the most conducive environments for close-knit teams, it’s still nice to retain the feel of space; glass can do this, as though it sections your office but doesn’t restrict your view. You can see anyone in the office if there’s only glass separating each room.
