Reception areas.

By Glenside in Reading for clients across the UK.

First impressions are everything.

The reception area is the first place employees, visitors and future staff will see when they enter your office. You could have the most cutting-edge workplace around, but if your reception area isn't inspiring, welcoming and reflective of your brand, it could be difficult to shift those all-important first impressions.

Every individual business will have their own vision of how this key space should be designed. We work in close collaboration with our clients and assess a number of factors, including the use of the space and security requirements, to create the perfect space to impress their customers, prospects and staff.

Your vision, brought to life.

We believe office reception design ideas should focus on the following priorities:


  • Creating an excellent first impression of your organisation to visitors
  • Ensuring that visitors waiting in your reception are afforded the maximum comfort and feelings of welcome.
  • Reflecting the branding and ethos of your business.
  • Meeting all regulations regarding H&S signage, disability access and other legal requirements.
  • Supporting the free-flow of communication with all parts of your organisation, including the ability to accommodate and process inbound and outbound deliveries.


We can design reception areas that makes the best use of the space available, however limited or extensive it may be. At times, this may require coming up with imaginative solutions for quirky and difficult spaces which may occur in older or repurposed buildings.

In recent years, the design of office spaces has undergone a major transformation. Traditional cubicles have given way to open floor plans, encouraging collaboration and communication. But as open offices have become the norm, employees and employers alike have begun to recognize that this setup isn’t without its drawbacks. Striking the right balance between open and private spaces is essential for creating an office environment that fosters both productivity and well-being.

Discover the essential steps to kickstart your office refitting project with our comprehensive guide by Glenside. Streamline your office transformation today.
By Phil Taylor September 26, 2024
In today’s competitive business landscape, the design and functionality of your office space are more important than ever. Gone are the days when a simple desk and chair arrangement sufficed. Modern workplaces need to be more than just aesthetically pleasing—they need to be optimised for productivity, employee well-being, and overall efficiency. While the initial investment in a high-quality office fit-out may seem significant, the returns can far outweigh the costs. Here’s why it pays to design your workspace right: Boost Employee Productivity and Morale A well-designed office environment can significantly impact employee productivity and morale. Studies have shown that employees who work in well-lit, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed spaces are more likely to be engaged and productive. Features like ergonomic furniture, natural light, and designated collaboration areas can reduce fatigue, minimise distractions, and encourage creativity. Enhance Your Brand Image  Whether you're a cutting-edge tech startup or an established law firm, the design of your workspace can influence how clients, partners, and potential employees perceive your business. A well thought out and executed office fit-out can communicate professionalism, innovation, and attention to detail. As well as this, office design can help express your company's character and values.
