Framed corporate artwork is not new. It has been a standard among various workplaces for many years now, and entire sectors have sprung up to provide corporate art to suit a variety of tastes and workplaces. Such art can encourage people to join a firm’s workforce, and breaks up the monotony of the bare white walls. But this isn’t the only appeal.
Recent studies have suggested that corporate artwork can directly impact upon the productivity, creativity, and stress levels exhibited by employees. Thought-provoking and relatively risqué artwork can serve as a conversation starter among employees who might otherwise struggle to voice their opinion, and it can encourage them to share more with the group.
Directly productivity was also improved upon – by up to 20%, in some cases. It has been postulated that this could be due to lessening stress in workplaces accompanied by corporate artwork, a reality that certain sectors – such as medicine and law – cope with on a daily basis.
There are innumerable options for decorating your office properly, and in many cases, firms have looked to their employees for suggestions on how best to put their decorations up. They should be a reflection of your firm and your standards, and speak to the company’s style.
Who knows, they could be the key to unlocking your success.
