1. Let There Be Lighting – Lighting is numero uno as far as a commercial designer is concerned. Lighting evokes mood and sets tone for the entire office experience. You will often see interesting reflected ceiling plans in the reception area. Lighting will be used to accent the reception desk, business signage and naturally, art. Pools of light are often used to designate seating areas.

2. Sign On – Building brand image is paramount to most businesses. Creative signage in the waiting room is a wonderful way to get your point across. In the waiting room, your business logo will also serve as art. Remember to present it in a way that compliments the design of the entire office.
3. Be Seated – Furnish the waiting room with contract furniture, please. Residential furniture can appear unprofessional and it won’t hold up. They call it residential furniture for a reason it belongs at home.

4. A Warm Welcome – There are many ways to make a space feel warm and welcoming. Creative uses of form in the waiting area can function as an extraordinary welcome mat.
5. Lean On Me – The reception desk is of great importance in an office waiting room. Your customers and/or clients are one side of the desk and your office personal is on the other. This is a line of demarcation so to speak and it needs special attention. Make it as nice as you possibly can.
