How Office Branding Can Make an Immediate First Impression

Office branding is a great opportunity to make an immediate impression on your clients, customers, and visitors to your office, letting them know who you are and what you stand for. Overlooking branding your office can easily be done but unlike the furniture within your office, the walls and windows are permanent fixtures so rather than trying to hide an unsightly wall, turn it into a feature and promote who you are and what you do. 

It’s not only visitors to your offices who benefit from a bright, welcoming workspace. Your staff too can enjoy an inviting workplace of reminders of your company’s values and ethos and for larger businesses with large or multiple offices, consistent branding throughout your spaces is a great way for staff to feel part of your culture. Visual branding in your office is a great way to navigate through larger offices, providing themes or colours for departments or floors. 

In summary, visual branding in your office can easily transform a customer’s visit. The branding goes beyond aesthetics and can leave a positive impression, influencing their perception and creating a connection with your brand. Within this post we learn about the main benefits to office branding and how Seymour Sign & Print can help you with your branding journey. 

Identity and Lasting Impression

The clever use of logos, colour schemes and design elements on walls, windows, and other surfaces contributes to a joined up and memorable identity. A well thought out, visually branded office exudes attention to detail, the organisation’s values and passion and a commitment to a positive customer experience. It creates a warm atmosphere that echoes the brand’s personality, giving a sense of collaboration, credibility, and trust.  

Office branding is a great way to tell a story; the story of your organisation or the products or services you offer. Every visual element tells a part of your brand’s story, which is a great way to connect to your customers emotionally. Consistency in office branding throughout a location; or across multiple office locations offer navigation, continuity of message and it can reinforce brand strength and image.

Masking Unsightly Walls and Windows 

Office branding is a clever and creative solution to conceal unsightly walls within an office, transforming them from eyesores into branding focal points. Instead of trying to cover up flaws and repeatedly maintaining areas; brand these instead with your company values and products and services you offer; turning them into deliberate features. 

The use of logo colours, company related graphics and imagery not only masks imperfections but also introduces life, a journey for your customers and employees and a great way to showcase your company and everything it stands for and offer visually. 

By incorporating your company’s values and aesthetics into the visual design within your office space, unsightly walls suddenly become a very important part of the office ambiance and your organisation. As mentioned, this not only improves the physical space for your employees but also gives a positive and professional impression on your visitors. 

Culture

Office branding can really play a key role in reinforcing company culture. It is a great way to showcase your values as a business as well as fostering that sense of community, collaboration, and purpose with consistent visual elements, such as logos and using the company colours within your office branding. This creates a cohesive language that the members of your team can identify with. 

Visual identification and unity throughout the workspace and throughout your potential office locations is a great daily reminder of your company’s ethos, encouraging that shared sense of purpose. If you are an organisation with multiple offices, consistent uniform branding is that consistent cultural thread and is a great way to connect people together. 

A great use of office branding is to celebrate achievements and milestones which can reinforce a positive and inclusive work environment. In summary, a well-branded office can easily become a canvas that contributes to the creation and preservation of your organisation.
