What is the role of an office entrance? Introducing stylish and cool design examples!

An office entrance is not just an entrance to a company, but it plays an important role as the "face" of a company. First, we will explain the four roles that an entrance plays.

The office entrance is the first area where visitors are greeted. The typical flow is to smoothly connect visitors to employees or staff via a reception counter or reception system.

A bright and clean entrance makes a good impression on visitors and leads to a sense of trust in the company. Sofas, tables, aroma diffusers, etc. will help make the waiting time for visitors comfortable and relieve tension.
In addition, by making the flow of visitors through the reception area clear, visitors can be guided smoothly to their destinations without getting lost.

A smooth introduction and a clean space leave a good impression. It also plays an important role in forming the first impression that visitors have of your company.

The office entrance space can be used to communicate the company's philosophy and vision to both inside and outside the company.

By bringing out the "color" of your company through the design of your entrance, you can impress your company's philosophy on visitors. An attractive entrance can appeal to job seekers and may lead to recruiting talent that makes them think, "I want to work here!"

The entrance is an important element that embodies a company brand. By designing it to reflect the logo, corporate color, and concept, it will unify the company image and play a role in branding.

The entrance can also be used as a display space to showcase your company's products. By displaying your main products and new products, you can easily catch the eye of visitors and expect a promotional effect for your company's products.

A stylish and sophisticated entrance will improve each employee's impression of the company and lead to increased satisfaction. The awareness that "I work in such a beautiful office" will increase motivation and a sense of belonging.

As you can see, entrances have many different roles. A good entrance has many positive effects on visitors, employees, and the company as a whole.

The design of an office entrance affects many factors, including corporate image, employee motivation, branding, security, etc. From here, we will explain the important points and things to be careful about when designing an office entrance.

The office entrance should be the "face" of the company, a space that embodies the company's philosophy and brand image. By effectively using the company's logo and corporate colors in the entrance design, the company's image will be more easily conveyed.

Furthermore, by setting up panels to display your company's products and introduce your services, you can more clearly promote your company's vision and business activities.

The office entrance is an important place not only for visitors but also for the employees who work there every day. Make sure to design it in a user-friendly and friendly way to increase employee motivation and a sense of belonging.

Depending on the industry, it may be necessary to take care to ensure employees' comfort, such as by separating the traffic routes of employees and visitors.

An office entrance should not only be beautiful, but also functional.

Measures to minimize the risk of confidential information leaks are required, such as introducing IC card entrance and exit management and unmanned reception systems. It is also important to design the office entrance so that the contents of meetings, business negotiations, and conversations between employees cannot be heard.

What kind of design is best for an office entrance that communicates the company's image, leaves a good impression on visitors, and motivates employees? Here are some design ideas that will come in handy when rethinking your office entrance.

In the design of the office entrance, the corporate color is very effective in clearly conveying the company image and differentiating it from other companies. By incorporating the corporate color into the signboard and interior design of the entrance, the company will be immediately associated with the company, and the corporate image will be widely disseminated.

Lighting is one of the elements that greatly influences the atmosphere of an office entrance.
If you want to create a clean feeling, use pale daylight color, and if you want to create a warm space, use incandescent color. Also, by effectively using indirect lighting, you can create depth and a sense of luxury in the space.

Placing potted plants in the office entrance will create a simple yet stylish space that doesn't look dull. Try placing large potted plants in the entrance hall or decorating the reception counter with small potted plants, depending on the style of your office environment.

It is also recommended to display artwork such as paintings and sculptures in the entrance to express your company's personality and sensibility.

If you choose an abstract piece, it will give a modern and stylish impression, while if you choose a landscape or still life, it will create a calm atmosphere. It is also recommended to create an object that shows the originality unique to your company.

It would also be a good idea to install an essential oil diffuser to fill the entrance area with a pleasant scent. Scents have a big impact on people's impressions.

For office spaces, we recommend scents such as lavender, which has a relaxing effect, and lemon, which has a refreshing effect. However, people's perception of scent varies greatly from person to person, and some people don't like certain scents, so be sure to check the effects of the scent and any precautions before introducing it.
