Reception Desk Companies in the UK

Types and Designs

First impressions count in many spheres and with a business, that means the reception area. At its heart will be the reception desk, which needs to be designed to give visitors confidence in the company, hotel or healthcare facility, while providing a comfortable working environment for reception staff.

Although wood and laminate are probably the most common materials for reception desks, glass, composites, stone and steel can also be used. The design will generally feature sections of different counter heights, with distinct areas for greeting people and for computer terminals or literature. The desk should be a focal point of the reception area and company branding will frequently be incorporated.

A professional look is achieved when the desk complements other reception furniture and shelving. Business furniture experts will design well organised reception spaces that achieve the client’s aims of presentation and practicality.

Many companies will work with a client to produce a bespoke reception desk that perfectly fulfils all their functional, ergonomic and aesthetic specifications.
