Reception furniture questions

How do I choose the right reception desk layout?

Start with the number of staff using the desk and the equipment they need. Mark the entrance, visitor approach, employee access and storage on a room sketch. Compare the complete desk configuration against that plan before selecting its shape and size.

How should I plan the waiting area?

Share typical visitor numbers, expected waiting time and any specific access needs. Review guest-chair dimensions, table locations and the route to the front desk. Have the responsible project professional confirm the applicable space and accessibility requirements.

Can the reception furniture coordinate with the rest of the office?

Show AAOF the finishes and furniture you want to retain or use elsewhere. Review reception, guest seating and storage together, then confirm the available finish selections for each product. Ask to compare current samples when a close match matters.
