Office planning with coneon
Office planning is the basis for the design and furnishing of your office environment. The aim is to ensure optimum efficiency, well-being and creative teamwork. This always takes into account the needs and goals identified in the THINK phase. Our in-house design team works hand in hand to turn your wishes into reality and develop an office concept that is perfectly tailored to your ideas. In order to cover all requirements in our office planning, we create a 2D floor plan, colour and material concepts, a 3D design concept and visualizations as well as a furniture concept for you.
How can office planning contribute to satisfied employees?
Professional office planning is crucial to promote wellbeing, productivity and collaboration in the workplace and to express your company's brand and character. With thoughtful office planning, we create a contemporary working environment that reflects your company's DNA and serves the needs of your workforce.
A well-planned space will boost your employees' commitment, promote motivation and create a positive working atmosphere. Such an office environment also promotes communication, a work culture and enables creative collaboration. A professionally planned office increases your attractiveness as an employer and creates additional trust.
What are the advantages of professional office planning?
The available space is used optimally on the basis of intelligent office space planning. The planning lays the foundation for a working environment that meets today's requirements and is also equipped for future developments.
Maximum space utilization
By carefully designing work areas and using flexible room concepts, unused space is reduced and the available space is used more efficiently. This means lower rental and operating costs per workstation.
Flexible for the future
Well thought-out planning makes it possible to flexibly adapt workstations and rooms to changing company needs and external circumstances. This prevents the need for expensive conversion measures or extensions.
Reduction of hidden costs
An efficient and well-planned design of the work areas can reduce not only direct savings in terms of space, but also hidden costs such as energy consumption, cleaning and maintenance.

Five steps to finished office planning
Office planning usually involves five different steps: Floor plan, colour and material concept, design concept, visualizations and furniture concept. This approach allows office planning to harmonize room function, aesthetics and work processes.
Based on a detailed requirements analysis, a well-defined workplace strategy and an office guideline developed during the THINK phase, all relevant information is consolidated and transferred into the floor plan.
Our planners schematically position all work areas – including workstations, meeting rooms and collaboration zones – within a 2D layout to ensure efficient and functional use of the available space. When structuring the individual areas of the working environment, we comply with applicable workplace regulations, particularly with regard to spatial dimensions, lighting conditions, fire protection, escape routes, sanitary facilities and other requirements for office space.
A so-called test fit is used to verify how many workstations can be realistically accommodated within the given area.

During the execution planning phase, all approved concepts and decisions are translated into binding planning documents. All spaces, built-in elements and fittings are defined and developed in full detail to ensure clear and unambiguous execution.
All relevant trades and interfaces are coordinated in this phase – including furniture, interior fit-out, lighting, acoustics and technical systems, as well as any bespoke solutions. Materials, products and construction details are clearly specified to ensure planning certainty for all parties involved. Execution planning therefore forms the technical basis for a smooth implementation and ensures that design intent, functionality and quality are fully realised in the completed space.
Based on the developed office and refurbishment concept, we prepare a cost and schedule estimate for your office interior fit-out. Throughout the process, continuous cost and timeline control is ensured, both prior to and during the construction phase.
Expert tip
by our design team leader Julia Schwalb
M.Eng. Architecture
“When planning an office, it is crucial to consider the workflows and communication needs of employees. An open space can promote collaboration, but private work areas should also be provided for concentrated work. A flexible design is also important to allow for changes in team structures or working methods.”
Different work areas in office planning
Modern working environments offer employees much more than just a desk and chair. Flexibly designed spaces offer employees different areas to optimally cover the various activities in their day-to-day work. These include places for concentrated individual work, classic meeting scenarios and creative meeting points.
Reception area – place2arrive
The reception area is the first impression visitors get of your company. When planning this area, factors such as the selection of comfortable seating, a clearly visible reception desk and the integration of your branding elements play important roles.
Conference rooms – place2meet
When planning conference rooms, attention should be paid to providing sufficient space for participants, appropriate lighting and good acoustic insulation. The seamless and unobtrusive integration of technologies such as video conferencing systems and presentation technology is also important.
Workplaces – place2work
The design of workplace areas has a direct influence on the well-being of employees. When planning workstations, factors such as sufficient lighting, ergonomic office furniture, privacy, communication options and flexibility should be taken into account.
Break rooms and kitchens – place2socialize
When planning office break rooms and kitchens, it is important to create an inviting and comfortable environment. This can be achieved through comfortable seating, modern furnishings and an open design that promotes social interaction and the well-being of employees.
Creative zones – place2collaborate
Creative zones are specially designed areas that promote creative collaboration and innovation. When planning these areas, attention should be paid to inspiring furnishing elements, flexible furniture and suitable technologies
Retreat rooms – place2focus
For quiet work and privacy, it is important to plan sufficient retreat areas. These include, for example, acoustic boxes for making phone calls or with an individual workstation. Workstations separated by acoustic elements or glass walls are also important for concentrated individual work.
