Guide to scientific customization of office furniture

1. Pre-planning: Determine needs first, then order furniture
Clarify usage scenarios

Open office area: focus on workstation density, wiring, and sound insulation
Independent office: focusing on image, storage, and privacy
Conference room/negotiation area: focus on table and chair size, projection/conference equipment adaptation
Leisure area/pantry: focus on relaxing atmosphere and easy to clean
Accurately measure space

Measure the net length, net width, door width, window position, pillars, and locations of strong and weak electricity
Reserve 80–100cm of pedestrian passageway to avoid crowding and depression
Use simple sketches/plans, which are less error-prone than verbal descriptions
Determine headcount and future expansion

Planning based on workstation area per person: open area 4–6㎡/person, independent office 8–12㎡/person
Reserve 10%–20% expansion space to avoid running out of space right after installation

2. Ergonomics: Sitting comfortably leads to high efficiency
1. Scientific desk size
Standard single space: 120×60cm (most versatile, not crowded)
Comfortable widened position: 140×70cm (suitable for dual screens)
Uniform height: 75cm (national standard ergonomic height)
2. Must-see indicators for office chairs
Lumbar support: Must have adjustable lumbar support to protect lumbar spine
Lift + rotation + tilt: suitable for different heights
Material: Breathable mesh, easy to care for leather
Safety: BIFMA Certified/Explosion Proof Air Rod
3. Cabinet and storage height
Commonly used items: 70–120cm (you can get it by raising your hand)
Not commonly used: above 180cm
Depth: File cabinet 35–40cm is most suitable
3. Materials and environmental protection: health first
Board selection

Priority: E0 grade/ENF grade environmentally friendly boards
Avoid low-priced boards with strong odor and poor edge sealing
Countertop recommendations: fireproof board, anti-fold board (wear-resistant, scratch-resistant, easy to clean)
metal & frame

Steel frame: wall thickness ≥1.2mm, more stable and non-shaking
Surface: electrostatic spraying, no paint peeling, anti-rust
glass / fabric

Tempered glass is used for partitions, safe and explosion-proof
Fabric sofa: choose removable and washable, anti-fouling fabrics

4. Style and appearance: unity is the only way to be high-end
Modern and simple: gray + light wood color (versatile, looks larger)
Business stability: dark wood color + black (suitable for corporate executives, law firms, finance)
Young creativity: color jump + modularity (Internet, cultural and creative companies, design companies)
Tips: Use no more than 3 main colors in the same space, keep the furniture in a unified style, and don’t mix and match too much.

5. Functional details: determine ease of use
Strong and weak current and wiring
Desktop cable box / under desk cable duct
Plan ahead for sockets, network cables, HDMI, and charging ports
Screens and sound insulation
High screen: good privacy and strong sound insulation
Low screen: transparent and not oppressive
Storage design
Under-the-table cabinets, side cabinets, and push cabinets are more practical than large cabinets
Try to hide lines and clutter as much as possible, and keep the desktop tidy
6. Budgeting and Procurement: Saving money but not quality
Budget Allocation (Reference)

Workstation tables and chairs: 50%–60%
Conference furniture: 15%–20%
Cabinets + Storage: 10%–15%
Leisure furniture: 10%
Key points to avoid pitfalls

Don’t blindly pursue low prices, focus on environmental protection, stability and after-sales service
Get the floor plan + quotation list first, and then place the order.
Confirmation: delivery time, installation, warranty, after-sales
7. Office furniture customization process (no missing step)
Requirements communication → 2. On-site measurement/provide drawings
Graphic layout design → 4. Style + material confirmation
Quotation and contract → 6. Customized office furniture factory production and scheduling
Delivery and installation → 8. Acceptance and warranty
