How to make a comfortable recreation canteen area for western people?

Thinking about this we analyzed our own experience. Coming from Germany, with most people living in a green country side, where it is calm and the scent of nature like forest and grass is in the air, the most stress western people have is the LOUDNESS. Loudness in cities caused through heavy traffic, but also the non existing isolation in buildings, like sound blocking windows, walls and doors. Additionally there is almost no sound absorption and all around hard surfaces, which cause a lot of echos. You cannot understand clearly and everybody starts to talk louder. A severe stress, which often cause headache. In Germany the offices are usually with carpet and other sound absorbing surfaces, which cause a calm stressless atmosphere.

To create this feel good atmosphere in Haering VIP canteen, we used sound absorbing material on window side and opposite wall. The basically transparent material is printed with stimulating images in a half transparency manner.

Acoustic plant partitions and optionally a green wall add green nature feeling, which western people are used to.

What is the best table size for western people?

4, 6, 8 or more? If the table and the group is too large, you cannot talk across the table and communication is limited to the people next to you.
6 or 8 is the best size. Elliptical shape is more space saving than round. People are closer together and can talk normal too each other without shouting.

Büros werden kuscheliger, glaubt man dem Eindruck der Orgatec, der Branchenmesse der Büromöbler.

Was ist eigentlich ein Büro? Schreibtische und Stühle gibt es nach wie vor. Aber das ist nur ein Teil eines Büros. Kuschelige Sessel und akustisch abgeschirmte Ruhe- und Besprechungskabinen scheinen unabdingbarer Bestandteil eines Büros geworden zu sein. Spiegelt dies die Realität in heutigen Büros? Entspricht dies der neuen vom Management gewünschten Arbeitsweise? Wie ist das bei Ihnen im Büro? .. Antworten und Kommentare sind herzlich willkommen :)

Everyone has heard of ergonomics - after all, the word is widely used in advertising. But to think of ergonomics simply as a way of designing more comfortable goods misses the point - there is much more to ergonomics. The word ergonomics is perhaps a little intimidating, but behind it lies a very simple idea.

• Ergonomics is about ‘fit’: the fit between people, the things they do, the objects they use and the environments they work in.
• If a good fit is achieved, stress is reduced.
• We are more comfortable and can do things more quickly and easily, and we also make fewer mistakes.

The industrial science, Ergonomics, deals with the stresses and needs of working people. By recognizing and analyzing them the work environment can be better adjusted to the employees. The main task of ergonomics is avoiding incorrect operations in the security-relevant areas like airplanes, cars and power plants, by adjusting the material for the work and the work environment to the person in an optimal way. The preserving of the employee’s health is a logical consequence.

Security and Privacy are preconditions for creativity and true communication and social intelligence. Here we differentiate: Security through backing = back coverage, Security through protection = shield in front, Security through command = overview of space, Personal territory = privacy = intimate space. In practice, we can observe, if you have no security and no defined private sphere in your workplace, you then unconsciously create alternative private areas in your workplace unconsciously. Like distracting your colleagues - avoiding team work.

Louis Jordan, Business Administration student at Donghua University, Shanghai, China: This essay will explain why ergonomic office solutions should be considered by companies, who want to improve office performance and save cost, in order to be more competitive. Office work is very important for any kind of business, even manufacturing companies rely on the performance of their offices to a degree of 60 to 80%. However, to run an office is also very expensive and companies tend to economize much on offices, which could lead to undesired outcomes. The science of ergonomics tries to find out all the aspects that improve system performance and human wellbeing. Ergonomic office solutions’ make a company ready for the future, with healthy, creative and happy core staff, capable of giving best performance and inspired to bring the company to the top.
