Reception Furniture

Your reception area is the first thing visitors, clients, and employees see when they enter your workspace. It sets the tone for your company’s identity, professionalism, and values. At CID Spaces, we understand that selecting the right reception furniture is about more than just aesthetics – it’s about functionality, comfort, and creating a welcoming environment.

Reception Desk

The reception desk is the focal point of your entrance space. It needs to be both stylish and practical, offering a professional appearance while accommodating the needs of reception staff. Consider:

  • Size & Layout: Should fit comfortably within the space while allowing easy access for visitors and employees.
  • Storage & Organization: Built-in drawers, shelves, and cable management keep the area clutter-free.
  • Materials & Finish: Options include wood, glass, laminate, and metal, each offering a different aesthetic and level of durability.
  • Accessibility: A reception desk should comply with DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) guidelines, providing an accessible height section for wheelchair users.

Soft Seating for Clients & Visitors

Comfortable seating makes waiting more pleasant and reflects your company’s hospitality. Consider:

  • Style & Branding: Choose chairs or sofas that complement your corporate identity and colour scheme.
  • Durability & Maintenance: High-traffic areas require sturdy materials like leather, vinyl, or stain-resistant fabrics.
  • Space Efficiency: Modular seating, individual chairs, or bench-style options help maximize space in smaller areas.
  • Functionality: Armrests, high backs, and lumbar support enhance comfort, particularly for longer waiting periods.

Additional Reception Area Features

Enhancing your reception area with practical and stylish elements can make a significant impact.

  • Coffee Tables & Side Tables: Provide a surface for visitors to place items, read magazines, or access company brochures.
  • Reception Storage: Integrated cupboards, shelving, and display units keep the space tidy and organized.
  • Lighting Solutions: Soft, warm lighting creates a welcoming atmosphere, while task lighting at the desk ensures functionality.
  • Technology Integration: Digital sign-in screens, charging points, and display screens for company updates can enhance the visitor experience.

Custom Reception Solutions

At CID Spaces, we offer a range of reception furniture tailored to your workspace needs. Whether you need a modern, minimalist aesthetic or a more traditional, welcoming feel, we can help design and supply the right solution. From high-quality reception desks to bespoke seating arrangements, we ensure your front-of-house makes a lasting impression.

Other Items to Consider for Office Desks

Acoustic Panels & Soundproofing

Reducing noise levels can create a more peaceful and professional environment, particularly in busy reception areas.

Branding & Signage

Incorporating your company’s logo, colours, or custom wall graphics can reinforce your brand identity.

Greenery & Biophilic Design

Adding plants or living walls enhances the ambiance, improves air quality, and creates a more inviting atmosphere.

Michael Deacon JacksonFTD Johns

We had the pleasure of working with our neighbours, CID Spaces, for our office fit-out, and we are very happy with the results. The communication and standard of workmanship was outstanding, and they completed the project on time and within budget. I can highly recommend CID Spaces.

I’ve only had positive comments about the work carried out by CID Spaces. Our MD was very impressed with the work. He said he didn’t notice anything until this morning which proves it was a neat and tidy job! Laura has said that we aren’t going to recommend you to anyone else... just in case you can’t fit our work in!

Working with yourselves and the rest of your extended team really has been a pleasure. I will sing your praises and recommend you to all with in our team and outwards. If you think our new office will assist in any new business negotiations I’d love to show it off. I have had amazing feedback from the senior team about here so thank you for that.

CID Spaces have completed two refurbishment projects for us, both of which have been very successful. As a Company we would happily use CID again and recommend their services to others.
