How to freshen up your commercial property

2/16/2021 (Permalink)

When owning a commercial building, you most likely would want your property to look visually appealing to impress customers and to foster a comfortable work environment for the employees. It may seem like a trying task to make your property stand out from the rest, but these often overlooked areas are the keys to making your commercial property the best in the game.

Commercial Landscaping

As our society leans toward industrialization, our cities have lost their naturally occurring plants and trees that contribute to making a place beautiful and peaceful. With that, it’s smart to incorporate as much plant and shrubbery in your commercial property planning as possible. Some examples of this can be climbing vines, a rooftop garden, a fountain with or without fish, bird feeders, shrubbery, flowers lining the walkways of your building, and any other ways that nature can be incorporated into your property.

Up-to-Date Outside Appearance

The styles in which buildings and signs are designed changes throughout the years. If you want your commercial property to keep attracting people and potential employees, you must stay up to date with the current design trends. This isn’t as hard as it seems! The font and size of your commercial business’ name on your property can be changed to be more visually appealing and with the times. If budget permits, the shell of your commercial property can be remodeled by simply updating the style of windows or the color of the walls. The way your property is presented reflects greatly in the business it accrues.

Up-to-Date Inside Appearance

Obviously, the inside of your commercial business is just as important as the outside. Some easy ways to make it look modern and appealing are:

• Comfortable seating areas
• Don’t keep the walls bare! Put up at least a beautiful work of art or picture.
• Indoor plants
• Walls with softer colors to foster a more at-ease environment for customers or employees
• Avoid cramping spaces with unnecessary furniture, keep things nice and open
• Smell!! Put on essential oil diffusers or air fresheners

Maintenance

The biggest key to keeping your commercial property beautiful is having a strong maintenance schedule. This is where a lot of businesses go wrong, in that the lack of maintenance causes the property to look older and worn out faster and ends up costing the business more in the long run. Maintaining the beauty of your property is the most important part in standing out as a commercial business.
