[Decision guide]
What this article will help you decide
architects, designers, project and facility teams
check the solution on the plan before ordering and synchronize the visualization with the specification
do not mistake a beautiful visualization for a working document: dimensions, articles, engineering and plan version must match
Where to start planning a small office?
Record peak number of people, calls, meetings and storage volume. Don't replicate a large office on a smaller scale: rare functions can use a common multi-purpose area.
- peak traffic;
- individual and team work;
- video calls;
- storage;
- receiving visitors.
What furniture saves space?
Shared workstations with centralized wiring are more compact than a collection of disparate desks. Lockers replace cabinets in hybrid planting. Compactness should not deprive the user of space for equipment and neutral posture.
How to visually make your office more spacious?
A consistent palette, repeating materials and neat wiring reduce visual noise. Clear borders maintain depth and low storage gently separates teams.
How to check a project before purchasing?
Mark the dimensions and areas for moving chairs, opening cabinets and doors. PoMo design relates the layout to the specification.

Use shared closets and lockers.
Does light furniture make your office look bigger?
It reduces visual heaviness, but layout and light are more important.
A low-commitment first step
Review the layout and request a project plan
Send PDF or DWG with dimensions, number of users by zone, engineering restrictions, brand book and deadline. During office hours, the team will clarify missing data and prepare a verified layout plan and data sheet for the work specification.
- 01
You share the project details PDF or DWG with dimensions, number of users by zone, engineering restrictions, brand book and deadline.
- 02
We review the brief We clarify the restrictions, availability and scope of work.
- 03
You receive a clear next step verified layout plan and data sheet for work specification.
