Smart Cafés as part of a health-promoting workplace design
The Smart Café plays a central role in this new understanding of work: as an informal communication zone, it is more than just a coffee kitchen. It is a meeting place, a creative retreat and part of the corporate culture.
Accordingly, the new se:café furniture from Sedus makes it possible to transform the office into a social space for networking and collaboration. Fully upholstered chairs and benches, a large team table for after work and socialising, as well as catering modules as central supply points, not only promote exchange between colleagues in the Smart Café, but also well-being - on several levels.
Light that activates and relaxes
Natural daylight and well-coordinated lighting concepts are essential for a healthy working environment. In smart cafés, for example, intelligent lighting systems can be used that are customised to the natural biorhythm of users. Indirect lighting and zoned islands of light also create a pleasant atmosphere.
Colours that act on emotions
Colours have a direct effect on our emotions - this has long been scientifically proven. Harmonious colour palettes of warm natural tones, calming green or energising yellow are particularly suitable for smart cafés. The choice of colours is based on the desired feeling of the room - activating or relaxing, depending on the zone.
Materials that appeal to the senses
Wood, felt, textured fabrics - materials make all the difference. Natural surfaces that are pleasant to the touch have a calming effect and promote a sense of well-being. In combination with ergonomic furniture, this creates zones that invite regeneration and informal dialogue.
An atmosphere that inspires
The Smart Café thrives on its ambience: plants, fragrances, lounge furniture and inspiring accessories can also contribute to the overall effect. A carefully composed atmosphere activates all the senses and creates a place that doesn't feel like work, but still encourages it.
Consciously shaping work-life blending
A sustainable integration of work-life blending and well-being at the workplace requires spaces that invite people to take a conscious break and socialise. Smart Cafés do just that. They offer the opportunity to switch off briefly, connect or gather new inspiration. Their design reflects the company's attitude towards health, appreciation and modern work culture.
To promote well-being, the focus must not only be on the desk. It is the spaces in between that determine motivation, health and creativity - and Smart Cafés are the key to this.
