We all react both consciously and unconsciously to the area in which we live and work, our environment has a profound effect on feelings, behaviors, general health issues and productivity. Using art in the office is only one aspect of workplace design, but it is one that should not be overlooked.
Having art in the workplace is also a way of encouraging creative thinking and of course there is the potential of a Public Relations spin off. A survey carried out by ICM and Art & Business found that 73% of employees wanted more art in the workplace, claiming it made them feel more 'motivated' and 'inspired.'
Further research carried out by International Art Consultants Ltd “indicates that companies regard art as an integral part of a motivating and productive working environment, and that more organisations are actively seeking to maximise the benefits of art within the context of their broader business philosophy.”
So it makes sense to create a pleasing ambiance for everyone who uses the work space, after all there are enough other variables in business life. Let's do something about the ones we can control!
