In a post-pandemic world, the health and happiness of employees is a priority for many companies and business owners. A focus that your team and attendees will appreciate, especially during a conference, convention or corporate summit. Today we’ll share how you can create corporate wellness rooms to help maintain positive and motivated participants!

Create an Ambient Setting

The first step you’ll want to take when creating corporate wellness rooms is selecting a designated area or areas within your event space. We recommend selecting an area that is a ways away from the primary room in use so that your guests can fully escape the hustle and bustle – whether you are hosting a training session or an annual meeting. Once established, pipe and drape can be used to enclose a space. This will help create a more private and ambient setting, in which guests can sit back, relax, and recharge. Choose from a range of beautiful and calming colors, such as black, ivory and white. If you like, you can even designate this area as a quiet or non-tech space!

Lounge Areas

Within your wellness room, you’ll want some comforts that encourage guests to sit and stay for a while. Specifically, lounge areas where people can casually converse or even meditate for a time. Start with cozy neutral or warm colored furniture, like our Bennett Leather Sofa or Henley Grey Velvet Tufted Sofa. Pair it with a set of accent chairs, like our beautiful Gloria Velvet Arm Chairs. Then, finish it off with a plush area rug and a set of matching coffee and side tables. Avoid any pieces that are too contemporary and might give off a cold feeling! Of course, you can also choose from our selection of beautiful lounge packages (we recommend #03 or #26). If you prefer, you can also create smaller areas using our bistro tables and bistro chairs.

Food & Beverage Stations

In addition to helping your guests relax you also want to help them recharge. A scrumptious food and beverage station will help keep them satiated and in tune for a long day of meetings or workshops. Start with an elegant display shelf, like our Black Bar Back Shelf – to store a selection of simple water goblets or other glassware. Nearby, keep refreshing cucumber water or similar beverages in a Glass Beverage Jar. Display snack foods, like fresh fruit or vegetables, in our white family-style service pieces for light on-the-go bites. Accompanied by simple white china! If you’ve been approved for alcoholic beverages, a stylish and well-stocked bar never hurt either.

Staging

Whoever is speaking at your company’s next event, you’ll want them to have a stage to share from. And if you’re looking at a creative location, sometimes it’s not obvious where exactly to have someone deliver their presentation. We provide staging for all kinds of venues, whether indoor or outdoor, to make it easy for all attendees to be able to hear and see.

Pipe and Draping

Add elegance and grandeur to your event with pipe and draping – a bonus when you add it in your company colors! We love how pipe and draping instantly elevates the design of any event, and when you’ve planned a large conference in a neutral space, it easily adds personality and reflects your company culture.

Lounge Furniture Packages

Lounges are the perfect way to break up an oversized space or provide your colleagues with a comfier place to mix and mingle. Create a professional looking lounge area with one of our many Lounge Packages – all of which can be added on seamlessly to any event’s design.

Red Carpets

Rolling out the Red Carpet is a fun way to express gratitude to your team to show them how much you appreciate their work. We love how much fun guests have when they walk down – such a fun added touch!

Folding Screens and Stanchions

Folding Screens and Stanchions are another great way to break up a massive room design and control foot traffic. Think about different stations being set up (check in station, information station, etc) and how you’ll want to create good foot traffic flow and obvious signage. Prevent long lines from overwhelming with stanchions placed strategically, and have folding screens act as the backdrop to various stations creating a “room within a room” look without setting up a wall.

Unique Stage Seating

Looking for a way bring beautiful design to your company event? We love how our Bennett Sofa, Eiffel Chairs, Adeline Chairs, or other Vintage Chairs look on stage, or placed throughout key points.
