Merino Laminates, November 27, 2024

The approach that you have when you are designing an office space, is much different as compared to other spaces like residences or hospitality. Right from the spatial planning to choosing the finishes to be used- one must constantly consider the impact the design interventions have on the users. At no given time should any design features be a distraction, but instead, they should boost productivity and facilitate an environment that encourages users to focus and do the tasks at hand efficiently.

Merino Laminates offers a wide array of finishes, colours and designs that are used as finishes for partition walls, cabin walls, accent walls, reception design, storage etc. The colours and designs offered by the brand are extensively used, especially for office interiors owing to the wide range of options, ease of maintenance, durability and cost effectiveness.

The matte or the Luvih range from Merino Laminates offer highly matte laminates in plain colours, stone and wood finish and are a hot favourite of designer’s across the country.

Zeroprint, is a premium satin finish matte laminate that does not catch fingerprints, thus making it easy to clean. They are also highly durable, thus making them the ideal choice for both storage and finishes in an office space. You can go for subtle greys, whites, minimalistic stone finishes etc., as these aren’t too jarring and make for ideal options for an office space. These are ideal for offices catering to lawyers, CAs or to IT companies, where functionally takes precedence over appearance.

Glossmeister, a range of glossy laminates from Merino Laminates, has a highly reflective glossy glass like finish. It has a high reflective index, and a super polished surface which facilitates easy cleaning and maintenance. These are great for creating over the table partitions which can also be used as scribble boards with temporary markers, walls for cabinets or as a finish for the reception area. The sleek modern look can be created using white, black and bright colours like red, yellow, green etc. This finish is ideal for medical facilities, educational institutions etc. where the appearance is as important as durability and functionality.

Here are 5 picks from Merino Laminates that you can use for your office space:

1. Oakwood from the Luvih range

A subtle, elegant wooden finish- oakwood is an ideal option if you wish to create classic, timeless office interiors as the colour, grains and finish is sophisticated and perfect for offices across diverse industries. It is a much lighter wooden tone, which further helps in creating a bright and airy space while enjoying the beautiful wooden grains. The Luvih range has more options in the oakwood range and you can choose your favourite out of those for an evergreen office space.

2. Chalky white from the Luvih range

While aesthetics are important, the design of an office must essentially be austere as it must not be overstimulating and distracting for the users. It is a space that demands focus and thus, a well lit and bright space must be created. Owing to this reason, white laminate is a must in every office space as it is the best finish for desks, storage units, cladding for columns etc as it is bright and makes the space look large and bright, thus creating a base for a productive and healthy work environment. This can be paired with greys, reds, blues or greens to make the space look modern, smart and elegant.

3. Celestial blue from the Glossmeister range

A soft, elegant shade of blue, this beautiful colour in a highly reflective finish is a great option for an office, be it small or large. You can pair this with white and/or lighter greys to create an austere and pleasant work environment  or if you want more colours, you can also pair it with lime to create a very vibrant and fun office space. Using this colour in controlled measures, along with neutral colours can help you create a very minimal and serene environment ideal for healthcare, research etc.

4. Misty Grey from the Glossmeister range

Another neutral colour that makes for a great finish in an office is misty grey. It is a darker tone of grey, while not completely blocking out light as black would. It goes well with both lighter and darker shades of grey, white or colours like red, light blue or dark blue. This is a great choice for offices like law firms, media houses, IT companies, offices for CAs etc.

5. Lime from the Glossmeister range

A vibrant and beautiful colour, lime in glossy finish uplifts a space like no other. If you are looking for a playful, bold and bright colour scheme, pairing lime with lots of whites and lighter greys can do the trick for you. You can use this for educational institutions, IT companies, media houses etc.

We hope that these handpicked colours and finishes help you create an office that is beautiful, smart and highly efficient. Striking the balance between elegance, simplicity and an element of fun can help you churn out a design that offers a comfortable work environment that the users are going to love!
