WATERCOOLER CHAT: Welcome Home to Resimercial Design

Resimercial office design is a hybrid of residential and commercial design. It has made itself at home around the office, inspiring your team to get cozy with collaboration. The idea behind this trend speaks to redefining comfortable within the commercial environment. It encourages more relaxed engagement through casual office spaces that help employees perform at their best in a less structured environment. This is providing employers, staff, and planners with some amazing opportunities to exceed expectations for your team. 

As part of the constant quest for work-life balance, resimercial design brings a unique level of comfort to commercial interiors in the workplace. As meeting styles have become more casual, and office plans more open and engaging, it was only a matter of time before relaxed residential elements came to the table with innovative highly collaborative design strategies.
