The 5 Biggest Office Furniture Trends from NeoCon 2019



NeoCon is one of the top exhibitions for the commercial design industry, showcasing the latest design trends and innovations in contemporary office furniture as well as workspace design itself. Here are 5 of the biggest contemporary office furniture ideas and trends from NeoCon 2019 to inspire your office remodel!

Lighting: 

Gone are the days when ugly, harsh fluorescent lighting was seen as acceptable in the workplace. Now it’s time for lighting to really make a high-impact design statement. Easy on the eyes, the office lighting that was on show was bold and artistic as well as functional, customizable, and energy-efficient. Obviously, a great way to lend a wow-factor to your brand. From dramatic pendants to wireless charging lamps and daylight bulbs, the biggest trend in lighting was creating access to ambient, customizable lighting options for individuals.

Scandinavian Style: 

The office’s love affair with Scandinavian-style furniture shows no sign of slowing down, thanks to its simple and timeless appeal. Look out for furniture with this style’s characteristic pale wood, sloping silhouettes, splayed table and chair legs, and elegant lines. This is a great trend to embrace if you really want your office furniture to not only last but also to look trendy for many years to come.

Color and Fabric: 

In rebellion to workplaces of previous generations that were dull, bland, and neutral, this exhibition went all-out for color and texture in furnishings. There were lots of bold color combinations in rugs, couches, tables, and chairs, as well as rich textures like quilted surfaces, velvet, and thick upholstery. This delivers a touch of decadence in the workplace that invokes a luxurious, home-like feel.

Privacy: 

The cubicles and workstations on show were nothing like the relics of the cubicle farm, offering a private, secluded space for focused work in an open-plan environment. This includes curved and boldly-colored walled units, work pods, and compact but luxuriously finished cubicles.

Resimercial Design: 

This trend, which debuted last year, is all about melding the commercial office and the comforts of home. It was out in full force throughout Neocon, showing a clear influence on everything from lighting and artwork to furnishings and accent pieces. These comfortable spaces are designed to increase collaboration, employee satisfaction, and wellness – luring the work-from-home employee back into the office.

  If you were considering an office-buildout before the pandemic hit, having lived through it can only be considered a blessing. At BE Builds, we’ve seen our clients designing workspaces that are dramatically different than the ones they would’ve designed just 12 months ago. Of course, there are enhanced safety considerations, but the reality is that the pandemic has created a design aesthetic – and opportunity – that doesn’t show any signs of going away soon.  Health and Wellness Tech Re-opening in a post-COVID world means making health and wellness a focus of office design rather than a productivity-enhancing perk, and the tech industry has really risen to the occasion. From touchless control systems and sensors to air purification systems, contactless access control and germ-killing UV lights, these systems work behind-the-scenes to support the health requirements of a post-COVID workplace. And these enhancements are not just a temporary investment due to the pandemic – they’re
