Introduction
A huge number of people work in offices of one kind or another. They may be offices in buildings purpose built or attached to a factory or in business premises. For many self employed business people the office is a room in their home converted for that purpose. Solicitors, doctors, estate agents and insurance agents, in fact any business that you can think of, works from some kind of office or another. You might even say 80% of the adult population work in an office. But I wonder how many of those people have any say in what kind of office they have and whether or not it suits their requirements. Mostly when someone new joins a company or firm, they are given a space for their office usually left by the previous incumbent. I suspect that if you asked occupants how they would like their office to be they would find it difficult to tell you.
When you think of the number of hours we spend in an office, at least eight hours per day and sometimes up to sixteen hours if it’s a busy period. Yes people are allowed out for breaks and rest times, but it is an awful lot of your life cooped up in small space. If at least a third of one’s working life is to be spent in an office, then it makes sound sense to ensure the environment is as comfortable, pleasant and as healthy as possible.
So how much thought goes into the planning of workspaces?
Where a building is purpose built such as an office, then the architects I am sure will have created good designs to suit the purpose. However, it has been known for new buildings to be problematic for the people working it them. For instance, synthetic materials used for carpeting can sometimes give off toxic fumes which cause allergies or illness of the staff. Air conditioning that relies on recycled air has the potential to carry bugs that can lay the whole office off at the same time. So there are many factors to consider in creating an office environment to ensure the staff are productive, creative, energised and remain healthy.
Old buildings, originally built for other uses, when converted to office space will have different issues to resolve. Often old buildings have very high ceilings where the heat rises up so that the inhabitants below are cold yet the heating bills are going through the roof, literally!! How to maximise the space available to provide a comfortable working environment will be a real challenge and this is where often the use of a mezzanine floor and suspended ceilings are valuable.
It is a well known fact for any establishment that happy workers give better performance and generate more revenue than unhappy workers. The workforce are more motivated, creative, helpful and have less time off work for illness if they are happy in their jobs. I am sure there are statistics available for these details, but moreover, as an employer, you have a legal responsibility to provide adequate working space, light, ventilation and other legislative requirements with regards the workspace. An office fit out specialist will be able to advise you in these areas.
Ergonomics
Ergonomics is the study of workplaces and the equipment used, to achieve the best design for comfort, safety, efficiency, and productivity. Research has been carried out over the last few years at Nottingham University on office space allocation challenges.
Workspace planning is fast becoming a specialist industry because of all of the current regulations and legislation. Formerly known, in the UK as the Factories Act and now known as the Health and Safety Executive regulations are in place to ensure that employees have sufficient working space in which to perform their work. This can be a potential minefield including such things as physical space, usable space, corridor spaces, and minimum light and ventilation regulations. If you are about to commence on an office refurbishment project ensure that your interior fit out specialists of conversant with all of these regulations before you engage them to perform your work.
What are the Criteria for a good office environment? We are sentient beings, which mean we respond with feeling and perception as well as intellectually to our surrounding.
Seeing
The first thing to consider when commencing an office refurbishment project is how does it look? The initial impact on us comes from what we see. The decor and arrangement of furniture, the window aspect and lighting are important in our perception of whether or not it is pleasing to the eye. Does the office have all the necessary equipment, computer, phone and sufficient storage for files and books etc? Plants provide a sense of balance in the space as long as they are discreetly positioned and don’t make it look cluttered. Plants are oxygen generators and help to refresh the air.
Smell
On entering a new place the first thing we take in is the aroma whether we pay attention to it or not. We notice immediately if the air is stuffy or if there is an unpleasant smell such as sweaty bodies. However a pleasant fragrance or no smell at all will be inviting. Baker shops nearly always pump out the fresh smell of baked bread into the street to entice people in to buy the goods. So although we may not be aware that smell plays an important part in our responses, we are still animals and we do use our olfactory senses a great deal more that we realise.
Feel touch
How does the furniture feel? Plastic seats can be very uncomfortable to sit on for a long time. Plastic does not breathe, it draws moisture from the skin so that when you stand up your posterior will be damp and uncomfortable. Padded fabric is warmer than leather for comfort and not as expensive. The desk chair needs to be the correct height for desk and give suitable support, a computer needs to be set correctly to avoid neck and wrist strain of the operator.
The temperature in the environment is best if it’s not too warm and not too cold. When deciding on an office refurbishment plan remember that employees need the temperature to be around twenty degrees.
Too warm and we become sluggish and sleepy, too cold and we become distracted and use up valuable energy keeping warm. Fresh air is also beneficial to stimulate the brain cells.
Sound Hear
What can we hear? Is it noisy or quiet? When I was first starting out in business, I went to visit a local manufacturing company to learn about the way they managed their business. At lunch time I was taken into the executive dining area where there was a waitress service and we had a very civilised lunch. Later I was taken to the works canteen. When we walked in I was hit with a blast of noise such as I had never experienced before. The hall was large with a very high ceiling and nothing to damp down the echo. The result was that everyone ended up shouting to be heard and there was loud music playing as well. I was shocked, not just at the noise level but by the contrast between the executive dining room and the workers canteen. I had come from an business which treated all members of the company the same so there were no executive areas and everyone, high and low mingled together for meals and break times. Guess which company had the better worker relationships and higher output?
Where a company utilises an open plan office then noise levels can be very distracting and one solution is to incorporate ‘White Noise’ which is a low level background noise to interfere with the general office talk going on over the phone or mini meetings. Sometimes quiet relaxing music is introduced as background noise but this is not usual in a business place.
Taste
Well we are not going to go around licking the furniture, but another important consideration is to ensure that a there is an area to enjoy a nice coffee or tea away from the desk throughout the day. So is there a pleasant area for making drinks and preparing snacks, or even lunch facilities alongside the office. I once worked in an office where they had a small kitchen area off the main office for making drinks and snacks and there was always a bowl of fresh fruit for staff, as the company recognising the refreshing effects of fresh fruit.
Workspace planning
So as you can see there are many things that can make the work environment a nice place to be. However getting the original layout and size of spaces for the employees is a complex process.
How much space does each individual need to work in? According to the Officewise publication from the Health and Safety Executive in the UK employers must provide a minimum of 11 cubic metres for each person permanently occupying a workplace. However there are all sorts of exceptions and caveats to this rule, such as making sure the space is usable space, and clearly if that space were under the stairs with no windows, or ventilation then it would not be suitable. So it is very important to ensure that your new office fit out adheres to all of the current legislation with regards to workspace laws.
In planning good workspaces the industrial fit out specialists may make use of suspended ceilings where possible which makes the installation of services easier and more cost effective. Electrical supply, air conditioning units, water pipes and telephone cables can all run behind the suspended ceiling making access easy if anything goes wrong and repairs need to be implemented.
Positioning of the electrical and telephone outlet is also crucial. The computers used in offices today all require their own electrical supply even if they are networked with the system.
External light from windows is a requirement for offices. The days of the cupboard office cubbyhole are gone. Light airy spaces make people feel good and doses of sunshine each day lift our spirits. However too much sunshine will overheat an office so the use of vertical blinds is recommended to deflect the rays of the sun without reducing too much the level of illumination.
Costs
To conserve office space costs some industrial fit our specialists have come up with the idea that instead of having a board rooms for meetings they have their meeting standing up around a special tall coffee table. This reduces the amount of time spent in meetings and the space is reusable for the lunches. Other schemes encourage employees to work from home for part of a week and utilise a system of desk sharing or moveable desks.
Reconfigurable spaces
Another way of economising on the cost of office space is by careful rearrangement of the existing floor area. There may be dead areas which could be released and turned into useable space. The installation of new interior partition walls can rearrange the existing space to create a more congenial working environment. Sometimes working in an open plan office is beneficial for communication between staff, other times it is a distraction and prevents efficiency. So having the option of both open space and separate offices provides the full range of options which can be easily introduced with new partition walls.
For example one of my clients, took over a set of offices and had various walls moved, so instead of it having two small offices, one without a window, they created one large office for the MD and a really good sized store room which they needed for long term storage of customer files. They then took out another wall and made a good size open plan office space and rearranged another wall to create a board come conference room. Also access to the little kitchen was changed to be more convenient. The choice of subtle colours on the walls and new vertical blinds caused the whole suite of rooms to be transformed into a pleasant and airy working area. Where there is plenty of ceiling height the introduction of a Mezzanine floor generates valuable areas perhaps for storage, private meeting rooms or extra offices.
Other thoughts in workspace planning, is the situation of facilities such as kitchen, toilets, relaxation areas and outside space if available. Sometimes the introduction of a simple partition can create a relaxation/dining area without losing too much of the work area.
All Health and Safety regulations are paramount they have to be adhered to in the workplace and must be incorporated into any plan along with full fire regulations.
Conclusion
Many companies may feel that upgrading the facilities is a ‘nice to have’ idea and the reality is that it usually comes at the bottom of the list on money allocation. However this is erroneous thinking; office refurbishment is never a waste of time or money. Creating a pleasant office environment by upgrading worn out or old fashioned surroundings and furnishings will make a big difference to the working life of the employees. Improved working conditions may be only part of the picture in achieving real job satisfaction, but it is a good start in the right direction. It also says a lot about what the senior people in the organisation think about their employees. If they ensure that their staff are given the necessary equipment and facilities to do their job effectively then the employees will give better service and can be more efficient and there will be a better working environment all around.

There is a wide selection of choices,types and materials these days for exterior doors. The materials most people are familiar with are solid wood and steel with an insulated core. Exterior door manufacturers are also now using alternative materials such as vinyl and fiberglass to create strong doors which do not require much maintenance. There are many advantages of wood exterior doors, including the strength and beauty it provides.
Wood doors can be found in a wide selection of woods with some of the most common being pine, mahogany, oak, walnut, and cedar. Your solid wood exterior door will need maintenance to protect it from the elements. While a preservative will be added to most high quality wood exterior doors by their manufacturers they will still require a protective coating to ensure that they perform well over time. You will find that wood exterior doors will expand and contract in response to moisture and temperature changes.
The performance of the door will often depend on where it is installed. Installing a wood exterior door in a climate which is moist and hot will mean it will require maintenance at least once a year. Here are a few tips about choosing exterior doors. Steel is another material that many people are familiar with when it comes to exterior doors. These doors are most commonly produced with a wood frame filled with foam which is then covered with an outer layer of steel. Strenth and stability are provided by the wood frame while the foam insulation provides greater energy efficiency. There is very little maintenance involved with a steel door.
Fiberglass doors are made in a similar fashion as steel doors except the outer skin is fiberglass. These doors are very energy efficient and durable. You can even give the fiberglass the look of real wood by using an embossing process. One of the most modern types of materials used to create exterior doors is vinyl. These doors feature a several chambered vinyl structure with steel, wood, or aluminum used to give the door additional strength. These type of doors offer good energy efficiently and can hold up well to almost any weather condition.

Digital lenses are without doubt one of the most important weapons in a photographer’s arsenal. They are also one of the most variable, coming in every conceivable weight, size and focal length, from the widest 10mm fish-eye to the longest 800mm telephoto lens. Whether your passion is to isolate fine architectural detail, or you are a landscape photographer looking to capture dramatic sunsets, there are many options for lenses, but they fall into four main categories.
Standard
Standard lenses for full-frame digital SLR cameras fall between 40mm and 55mm, 50mm being the accepted norm. Standard lenses are closest to the normal field-of-view of the human eye, offering undistorted perspective. They are often used for portrait photography. Many digital SLRs need a shorter focal length than a 35mm camera or full-frame digital camera, due to their smaller APS-sized sensor, and these cameras will need a 35mm lens to get the same field-of-view as a 50mm lens on a full-frame.
Wide-angle
Wide angle digital lenses are well suited to landscape and reportage photography, with their wider angle-of-view and shorter focal lengths than standard lenses. The need for shorter focal lengths to compensate for the APS sensor on many digital SLRs has led to an influx of new models. A typical digital wide-angle model might be 17-35mm, giving an equivalent field-of-view to 25-52mm on a full-frame SLR.
Macro
If you’ve ever looked at a full-frame picture of a small subject such as an insect or petals and wondered how it was achieved, the answer is by using a macro lens. Macro lenses focus from as close as 2 inches and allow for a 1:1 life size reproduction. These lenses are specifically designed for close-up photography and are usually available in focal lengths from 50mm to 180mm.
Telephoto
Any digital lenses with a focal length above 50mm are designated as telephoto. Portrait photography is ideally suited to short telephoto lenses (70mm to 120mm) and longer focal lengths (135mm to 300mm and beyond) are excellent for wildlife and sports photography. On most digital SLRs, with smaller APS-sized sensors, the magnification of a lens is increased by approximately 1.5 times, making a 200mm digital lens equivalent to 300mm on a full-frame camera.

Hydroponics was derived from the Greek word hydro, which means “water” and ponos, which means “labor or water-working”. Hydroponics gardening involves growing plants with their roots in other nutrient solutions and without soil.
Hydroponics gardening is as simple as ordinary gardening. Both of them necessitate sufficient light, water, temperature, light, and humidity. But with hydroponics, no soil is used. Instead a soil substitute holds the roots while nutrients are carried by the water. Indoor hydroponic gardening is not that hard and plants respond well to this method of growing.
This is one of the major considerations in hydroponics gardening since it sustains the plants. One has to make sure that this nutrient solution maintains a pH level of 5 to 6 after dilution. In hydroponics gardening, the plants should be watered more than three times a day. this is usually done using a pump and timer.
Simple self watering systems such as the Aquapod Watering System or the Big Drippa Watering Kit. These systems can water and feed your greenhouse or patio plants.
If your hydroponics garden is located indoors, the most suitable temperature is between 71 to 76 degrees Fahrenheit. Of course, this temperature may change depending on the different types of plant you are working on, e.g. tropical plants.
Place your plants somewhere they can receive ample amount of light. Otherwise artificial light must be used. High pressure Sodium lights or bulbs are a suitable substitute for natural light.
Humidity is good. When the room’s temperature rises, the air will be able to hold the sufficient amount of moisture your plants will need.
With hydroponics, an excellent yield of quality plants can be easily achieved. Home hydroponics systems and DIY kits are are readily available in most hardware stores.
A hydroponics system can be fully automated. Since it is water-based, the gardener has no soil to dig or weeds to pull. Also, the water can be re-used to prevent wastage.

Most people understand that vehicle insurance premiums vary among states, among insurance companies, and even among policyholders. You cannot expect that your friend’s car insurance rates will exactly be the same with your premiums. It does not always work out that way since every driver is rated individually using different factors. automobile insurance company rate amounts of risk and libiliity a person will likely pose for the company. And depending on that rating, insurance companies will determine on whether they will take you as under their care and how much car insurance premiums you will be charged. Some states have reasonable rates like Georgia car insurance and some states are super expensive, like New York Car insurance
The next qusetion should be how car rating are determined. And as I’ve mentioned earlier there are several factors that determine a driver’s auto insurance rates. Let me just discuss them one by one.
One important thing to remember is that your driving record plays a very significant role on your auto insurance rating. The better driving record you have, the better deals you will get on car insurance cost you will pay. The key to attaining a good driving record is to drive safely whenever you drive. As much as possible avoid accidents, speeding violations, and even driving uninsured. The great thing about your driving record is that you can directly control this one so as long as you drive safely then I guess you wouldn’t have difficulty getting a good driving record.
Moreover, the type of automobile you are driving and its usage also affect your premiums. Again, these are the factors that you can control. If you don’t want to pay expensive car insurance premiums, then drive your cars less than often and do not buy luxury vehicles or sports car insurance.
And lastly, one more factor that that set’s a person’s car insurance rates is age. This sadly, is something you don’t have control over. In most cases, vehicle insurance companies set higher car insurance premiums for drivers who are under 25 years of age.
above are just a few examples of the factors that affect quotes on car insurance. Understanding those factors will help you to get more affordable car insurance rates.

The money markets are in turmoil. The dominoes are falling more rapidly than a hungry cheetah!
The latest fatalities, if you haven’t heard (and you would’ve had to have been in deep space not to have heard), are the financial cornerstones of the USA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The government has had to intervene with a huge rescue package just to keep these financial establishments afloat!
It’s a very depressing state of affairs but to be honest, a state of affairs which many foretold quite a while ago. The ominous signs could be seen in the housing market at least 12 months ago but many chose to ignore the inevitable.
The panic is now upon us and just this week one can find reports from estate agents in Great Britain that they are doing well to sell just one house a week. The market has thoroughly died and there’s no sign of it getting better anytime soon.
If you’re undertaking to sell your house and you’re wanting a quick sale you might just have to step back and try to ride this one out for at least another year. Many commentators on the inside are expecting the downturn to last for the next 24 months.
Repossessions are on the up big time and what we are seeing now are many hundreds of people looking to sell, rent back their property and stay in the same place this way. It must be heartbreaking making that decision but at least you get to stay in your home.
If you’re having trouble meeting your mortgage repayments every month then you should first go and see your mortgage provider and in fact some companies are now providing sell and rent back programs to help you through these tough times.
