Resting areas

To work without resting is not healthy. To do short active breaks (of about 5 minutes) every two hours approximately will help you to recover the energy and will benefit the fulfillment of your functions and interpersonal relationships. That’s why it is indispensable that the ideal office has resting areas for having a coffee with your colleagues or simply for having a break.

Coloring

Have a look around. Which colors do you see? The neutral or greyish ones cause a feeling of apathy and do not stimulate your imagination. If you want to work with energy you need bright colors, as the orange one, which improves the communication with people, or the yellow one that encourages the creativity.

Green areas

The plants or green areas will also give a touch of color and will improve the happiness of the workers, because they contribute to oxygenate and release toxins of the working environment.

In our workspaces at La Moraleja we have lovely gardens plenty of sunbed to ensure that you reset your brain and wellbeing  Look no further and get rid off your daily stress in our offices.
