Even though most clients never see our office, we decided we needed quality to thread its way throughout our entire operation, and that included the way we furnish our home office. Nancy Schoenfisch and one other employee, Sue Gardner, share 300 square feet of space on the first floor of the house. Although the company maintains a total of seven employees, only the Schoenfisches and Gardner work out of this location. In the outer office, each person has solid-oak work surfaces, panel ends, and cabinets, also manufactured by Geiger. And, he adds, the drawers always line up straight when they are closed.
Lighting is another important feature.
Along with ambient lighting by New York City-based Luceplan, each desk has its own adjustable Luxo lamp, which includes two levels of brightness to adapt to the changing light at different times of the day. The Schoenfisches took the opportunity to buy most of the furniture and lighting from their clients. It's comparable to what you would find in the best corporate offices anywhere in the country.
