Organizations today are focusing on how to attract and retain top talent, keep their people happy, and inspire them to work from the office instead of at home. One way to achieve this is by creating an engaging, comfortable and modern workplace that gets people excited about coming to their work environment.
While each NBS team member works from the same organization and may have similar roles, our range of personal experiences, journeys, skills and personalities help shape who we are as individuals and what we bring to the company. Our one-of-a-kind company culture is a direct result of our amazing people.
Ever walk into a space and think “wow”? Amazing spaces like that don’t just happen; it takes knowledgeable experts who understand the nuances of interior spaces and how people interact within them. Creating functional, inspiring and productive spaces is a complex process, but NBS makes everything come together seamlessly.
For many of us, the holiday season means giving back, enjoying a variety of fun winter activities, and spending time with friends, family and co-workers. NBS’s favorite holiday tradition? Rudolph to the Rescue – an initiative started years ago that provides financial assistance to local families and organizations during the holidays.
Many of us have experienced the stresses of moving, transporting our belongings, or simply running out of storage space. Thanks to NBS’s strategic partnership with Rose Moving & Storage, these troubles can be put to rest. Whether you’re looking to store or move your furniture, we’ve got you covered.
As the world and workplace continue to evolve, so do our NBS showrooms. Recently, our very own team redesigned and reconstructed a space we call “The View,” a collaborative meeting space in our Troy Experience Center. We integrated architectural elements, furniture and technology solutions to create a more useful and engaging space.
I finally had the chance to attend the Rocket Mortgage Classic alongside my NBS teammates. Being in my first year on the Business Development team at NBS, I quickly discovered that this tournament is something we greatly support as a company. When it comes to the Rocket Mortgage Classic, we go all out!
I was about to embark on my first ever NeoCon journey. If you haven’t heard, NeoCon is the most popular event of the year for the commercial interior design industry, showcasing innovative workplace solutions from more than 400 leading companies.
Today, organizations are taking intentional steps toward creating compelling, technology-enabled workplaces to keep up with the needs and expectations of employees. The future of work requires instant communication, enhanced connectivity, interactive digital experiences, and even components that support employee wellbeing and productivity.
One thing we’ve learned from the onset of hybrid work is that it’s changed employees’ expectations for their workplace. Now more than ever, people want to feel a sense of belonging, be productive and have greater control over where and how they work.
It’s no doubt that the physical classroom we once knew has changed the last couple of years, and for many, it’s been hard to keep up with. Students and educators felt confused and overwhelmed after the classroom suddenly switched from completely physical to fully virtual.
Technology is a key player in how we work today. Often technology is thought about last in space planning. In reality, it should be considered early in the process, as it has become an integral part in the way we meet and connect.
While the past couple of years have been difficult for most of us, we all have something that has kept us going each and every day. Despite all the struggles we’ve faced, we had time to figure out what we love doing, pick up new hobbies and realize who means the most to us.
When thinking of entirely redesigning a space, organizations typically are hesitant because of the time and money that need to be invested. Thanks to pilot spaces and prototypes, organizations can test out new applications and products on a small scale to start.
Shopping small and local this year is more important than ever. Supporting the creative and dedicated small business owners in our communities is our opportunity to invest back in our neighbors while giving this holiday season. Our small business gift guide offers ideas for where to shop in each of our NBS regions.
These days, it’s all about staying ahead of the trends when it comes to hybrid technology – which all comes down to innovation and collaboration. No matter where you’re working from, it’s essential to have the capability to collaborate with coworkers, both working in the office and remotely.
NeoCon never fails to excite us about the latest workplace trends, and it certainly did not disappoint this year. As we walked through the beautiful showrooms and explored some of the coolest new products, we noticed a popular theme…hybrid work!
We’ve put together five trending solutions that can transform your workplace into the spot you’ve always dreamed of. These solutions support control in the workplace, boost hybrid collaboration, and are so inspiring, that your team will be refreshingly excited to come to the office.
As we continue to celebrate being back together in 2021, sharing our songs is a fun way to bond and reminisce on all the great times we’ve had together and the ones to come. We compiled 50+ songs our team submitted into a Spotify playlist.
With offices reopening, many are wondering how to make a hybrid work model not only successful, but better for individuals and organizations. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, but we believe thoughtfully designed spaces, open communication and the right technology are key.
Every organization goes through change. With the “Flex Zone,” NBS created a versatile space that better meets the needs of our people today while retaining flexibility for modifications in the near term and the future.
NBS is pleased to share we have been recognized as an honorary Steelcase Premier Partner for 2020. The Premier Partners program rewards dealers for their success in market share growth, client satisfaction, financial strength and investment in their people and communities.
Smart display systems allow organizations to deliver a consistent message across the enterprise, no matter where people are located or what device they are using.
Many office workers have gotten used to working in some pretty homey environments over the last year – in many cases, their actual homes. As they come back to the office, ancillary spaces with home-like touches can go a long way toward making the workplace return more comfortable.
