Why calming and relaxing office art?

Mrs Badger Designs produces art that produces a calming, relaxing, and soothing atmosphere. Her art is perfect for the office environment and helping productivity. Art is an overlooked productivity enhancer.

Why is art Important?

To Inspire thinking in the office

Choose standout pieces for meeting rooms to inspire you even if you are discussing stressful sales targets. Match the tone of your brand – for quirky, creative businesses, choose an artwork that communicates your values to potential clients. If your business is not on the edgy side of life, then a travel inspired piece is the perfect option to whisk you away on a rainy day. Give your staff a window into faraway places without using all their annual leave up.

Add life in sterile areas

Give your office space an extra special lift with crowd-pleasing art that will energise even your grumpiest co-worker come Monday morning. Bright colours, hues of yellow, orange and green will create a positive, friendly and creative work environment. Colour theory states that these colours evoke positive emotive states, with yellow creating a sense of joy and green as the most creative colour.

Mrs Badgers Tips:

1.Size and Scale

When it comes to choosing art, the bigger, the better. Choosing art that's too small is a very common mistake, it gets lost. Take for instance the wall space over a sofa in your reception. The art above it should be approximately 2/3 the width of the sofa or larger or it looks like a postage stamp. If there is a long wall then you can use several smaller artworks to make one display. Just use the 2/3 rule for the complete area. Choosing the right piece of art for your office can be an intimidating task. Mrs Badger Designs offers prints on canvas, metal, framed and unframed.

2. Consider different forms and style of Art.

Depending on your office, you can add throw pillows, curtains, or throw blankets into the arty mix. A lot of the time these will complement the overall setting and give you more at very little cost.

3. Consider Artwork for every room type

You can place artwork in every area of the office.

• Receptions: even though this is not a gathering area, do not under-estimate the importance of this space. It is the entrance to your place of work, it is the introduction to the rest of your business.
• Office: think of the layout will a big canvas be better or a group of four or six pieces, or you should divide your big empty wall into areas with one central area for a big canvas, one side area with three pieces and one other side area with a medium size piece. If you require help you can always contact Mrs Badger Designs to create a mock-up and see how it will look.
• Communal areas: the place where people gather to make drinks, never underestimate the communal areas. Some positivity here is a gem!
• Bathroom: like kitchens, bathrooms are often neglected in terms of art but they are used everyday so once again. Push the positivity.

4. Choosing the Colour Matters

Colour is the one thing people get confused with when trying to choose art. People usually try to find something that matches with the other colours in the office. Colour matching some of the colours is a perfectly acceptable method for choosing art, it's not the only method. Sometimes the colours you need can be the direct opposite of what you already have in your office. You might require something that is black or white with some other colour as an accent. Look for something that compliments the space.

5. Consider budget and cost options.

Cost is one of the major deterrents preventing people from buying art from an artist or graphic design studio. However, Mrs Badger Designs has prices to suit all pockets and with the quality of the prints you will still have the artwork in the future.
