An Office that Inspires, Decreases Stress!
Last night, the SalesBy5 team visited RiverWalk Studios for the unveiling of the new logo for San Antonio Sports (formerly Foundation). The owner of the studio is a great old friend, Oscar Williams, who is one of the best photographers I have seen. He recently redesigned this studio and told me the story of a makeup artist who was touched by her first visit. She was so happy and inspired that someone would put forth the effort to build a beautiful place for her to use her craft that she started crying. The other photographers and talented individuals that visit and use the studio are fueled creatively by the colors, layout and attention to detail.
Research carried out by Hewlett-Packard and the Mind Lab found that a staff with a “free range” office with open spaces, laptops and mobile communication saw their stress levels decrease by some 50% and saw their IQ scores rise by 28%, along with a reduction in blood pressure levels, compared to an office design with cubical desks and slower computers.
