Create a homely office environment with Resimercial Design & Thors Design

09/12/2024

Have you ever entered an office space where the overwhelming feeling was so nice, it almost felt like home? If you have, then you have most likely experienced the essence of Resimercial Design, a growing trend in modern interior design that combines the comfort from home with the functionality of the office. In this article, we take a closer look at what Resimercial Design is and how it can transform our working environments. We will also show you how furniture from Thors Designs fits right in, and why it can be the key to creating an office space that promotes productivity and well-being.

Hvad er Resimercial Design?

Resimercial Design is a combination of the words “residential” and “commercial”. It’s about creating working environments that feel warm, inviting and relaxed, just like a home. 
Instead of the traditional sterile offices, that often feel impersonal and monotonous, Resimercial Design puts the emphasis on:

  • Comfortable furniture: Sofas, lounge chairs and large tables create a relaxed environment that  encourages community.
  • Natural materials: Wood, material and leather add warmth and texture.
  • Personal details: Art, plants and decorative elements make the surroundings more inspiring and homely.
  • Zones designed for different purposes: Areas for relaxation, focus and cooperation ensure that all work place requirements can be met.

The idea is not just to improve the æsthetics of the office, but also to strengthen the employees well-being and creativity. At a time when hybrid working is growing in popularity, Resimercial Design is a great way to make the office a place that feels more appealing and comfortable and a place that employees want to be.

Why does Thors Design furniture fit so well in to the Resimercial Design concept?

At Thors Design we create furniture that naturally compliments the Resimercial Design concept. Our furniture is made from robust reclaimed azobé wood from decommissioned Danish harbours, which gives each piece unique historical details, character & soul. Here are some of the reasons why our furniture is the perfect choice when creating a homely office environment:

1. Natural soulful materials – The wood we use has already spent decades in the Danish harbour and the natural patina shows clear signs of this history. Every vein, crack and tone in the wood tells a story of strength and passing time, making our furniture something quite special. These unique characteristics add character and a soulful depth that gives any space a feeling of warmth and authenticity. Our furniture transforms the cold and sterile office environment to a place that feels more personal and inviting – a place where employees and visitors alike feel welcome and at home.

2. Quality hand made pieces – Our furniture is designed and produced in Denmark, with great care and respect from robust materials. This means that when you invest in one of our pieces, it will not only be unique and beautiful, but will also last for many, many years. From large tables to rustic benches, our products can create the perfect surroundings for cooperation and creativity.

3. Sustainability in focus - Resimercial Design is also about creating environments that are in harmony with the world around us. By using reclaimed wood from decommissioned harbours, the furniture we make contributes to a more circular economy and minimizes use of resources. 

4. Flexible design – Our furniture is perfect for use in multifunctional zones, which is one of the main elements in Resimercial Design. A table from Thors Design can function as a place for meetings during the day, a place for communal dining and can also be used as a comfortable relaxing area where colleagued can meet in the afternoons.

All bulwarks that become Thors Design furniture are sawn into planks at Møltrup Saw Mill. A collaboration that both makes a difference for men on the fringes of society and enables Thors Design to place its entire production in Denmark.
