Year end was fast approaching and TeamPAR’s phone rang. Our client had a unique request they hoped we could fulfill with “use it or lose it” funds that were burning a hole in their bank account.
Assignment:
- Transform a 10’X12’ windowless room that currently had no true purpose into a thoughtful “Renewal Room.”
- Design, order and install the majority of the space in less than 15 days and remain in the tight budget provided.
- Inspire employees to want to utilize the space in 2016 and incorporate wellness practices into their daily lives — a major initiative of this International Consumer Goods Corporation.
TeamPAR loves a challenge and PARsolutions & PARflooring had 48 hours to conceptualize and budget the room. The design board was created and approvals were obtained to proceed.
The Renewal Room was designed as an internal haven where employees can decompress and re-center for 15 minutes — screen free. Utilize the massage chair, stretch using the yoga mats, journal while listening to the sounds emanating from the sound machine and breathe in the natural essence oils from the aroma therapy machine while being visually inspired by the calming mural and custom sculpture created to inspire fresh, creative thoughts.
This project made me analyze underutilized areas and proved that small changes can yield great impacts and rewards.
- It can make a company or department run more efficiently.
- It can provide an added employee benefit making people feel appreciated — Renewal Room, Game Room, Exercise Room — You name it!
- It can create branding, way finding, personality or warmth within an area or throughout your space, giving your employees a sense of pride and team spirit.
Here is the email that TeamPAR received upon completion of this project.
- Tight time table met
- Budget maintained
- Employees using the newly repurposed room
- Client is satisfied and TeamPAR cannot be happier!
