As we continue to close out the year, we are finding the top sales for each office furniture type. Today, I will show you the bestselling reception desk for 2022. There are many excellent reception desks available for purchase in the Madison Liquidators online marketplace and this one was selected more than any other.
When thinking about selecting a reception desk for your front office it should be noted how important it is to find the right office furniture piece. It should be a reception desk that establishes the overall style of the inner office from the front door itself. You don’t want just any office furniture piece haphazardly selected for the reception ar (Read More)

With the rise of the open office concept came unintended consequences; namely noise pollution. Open spaces are conducive to sound reverberating in the empty spaces and carrying way further than in a traditional office. This issue is often overlooked until the office is set up with all the workers performing their duties, in other words- too late.
However, there is a solution that has been engineered to greatly reduce office noise, sound absorbent tiles. Both ceiling and wall tiles have been brought to the Madison Liquidators online marketplace through our partner MergeWorks and their EchoDeco series. We will take a brief look at this sound absorbent office solution. Firs (Read More)

I thought that we would look at one of the most overlooked desk options for a collaborative or growing office. It’s the T shaped desk for two people. I know that it isn’t the most obvious desk shape at first glance, but if you look a little closer, it makes a lot of sense and honestly should be used more often in today’s office setting. After all, a T shaped desk for two workers is just two L shaped desks stuck together.
When we look at it like that, it does put a new perspective on the T shaped desk for two, doesn’t it? At least it does to me because the L shaped desk is the most sought-after desk design going today. Take two of them and smas (Read More)

Sometimes an office needs to be partitioned off. This can be done for several reasons such as a growing office blocking off unused sections of office space, making a dedicated meeting space in an open area, or just simply for noise reduction. Whatever the case, Madison Liquidators has a variety of cubicle walls to serve your needs. But it’s a wall, right? Aren’t they all the same? The answer is yes, and no. Let’s take a closer look.
First, the yes. All cubicle walls supply a barrier between two sections of office. All partition office furniture manages this well. As for the no, there are many unique shapes, sizes and styles of cubicle walls. We wi (Read More)

A small conference table for an executive office can be a valuable asset to have in place. They provide a small meeting area outside of the normal confines of the conference or board room. Usually, a small round or square conference table can be placed within the executive office without taking up too much space and ruining the design of the office space. They provide the executive with a small informal meeting area within their own office to greet guests, often those VIPs that really help make the business such a success. Since small square or round conference tables are becoming so popular for the executive office, I thought I would highlight a few from the Madison Liqu (Read More)

Office organization is extremely important to an office worker. An unorganized workspace is an office that is not efficient; not only that but most times this situation can lead to a less than professional appearance for the business. To keep a professional appearance, the office must be free of clutter while with everything in its place. As I say often to my children- a place for everything, everything in its place (thank you Ben Franklin.} That means that every office needs both trash bins and adequate storage. Today, I would like to focus on one form of storage to help organize an office- Lateral file cabinets.
Lateral file cabinets are a newer take on the tradition (Read More)

After reviewing standing office furniture for the past week or so, I thought I would look into this style in the most popular office desk around today- the L shaped desk. L shaped desks are always “flying off the shelf†at Madison Liquidators and for good reason. They provide an upgraded workstation compared to a traditional rectangular desk. They give the worker double the desktop workspace versus a traditional shaped desk. This extra workspace pays dividends for project management and desktop organization. I personally work from an L shaped desk and do so because I was allowed to pick out my own desk, so I like so many others went with L shaped office furnit (Read More)

As I have covered conference tables from our inventory, I will often throw in a bonus of a fresh/trendy new design. However, after looking at them again I dare say that they are no longer a trend but a modern office furniture choice that is here to stay. I am talking about standing conference tables. What did I say? STANDING conference tables. (Perhaps I should put it in bold…)
Yes, standing office furniture is making a huge push in the market these days and as 2023 rolls around, I do not see them slacking off at all. This move towards a more active office work lifestyle comes to the conference room which is the natural next progression from the personal sit stand (Read More)

Guest chairs are comforts for those that partner with us in our business endeavors. We don’t want to greet guests to have them sit uncomfortably while in our offices. No, we want good impressions every time our partners enter our offices. Guest chairs can be overlooked in the first impression of the office because of sensory overload, but I assure you that upon second and third visits comfort will be brought to the forefront of their minds.
With this, I would like to look at the range of guests chairs that we have in our inventory for you, and what a wide range it is! We will look at everything from stacking chairs made from mesh to premium leather guest chairs (Read More)

A growing office needs to have versatility. They need the ability to transition from one phase to the next swiftly. While there are a lot of variables that go into a transition such as this, one of the best ways to make it easier is to have office furniture that can change with each move. For larger desks such as the U shaped desks versatility means being reversible. For a U shaped desk, being reversible means that the bridge, which is the centerpiece connecting the front and back of the desk can be placed on either side as needed.
A reversible U shaped desk will ensure that with each move, the office furniture will be able to fit within any office setting. Not only th (Read More)

The pedestal desk. It’s the oldest and most widely used desk shape in all of human history. There’s not much thought that needs to be put into it right? I mean a desk that has been used for centuries must be easy to pick because they are traditional pieces of office furniture that can’t be improved upon, or can it? That’s a great question, Madison Liquidators have excellent pedestal desks that are very traditional in their appearance such as this pedestal desk shell.

Office furniture accessories are often overlooked when we first furnish an office. I get it, our attention is elsewhere like finding the perfect desk for each office or ensuring that all the desks from the receptionist to the executive hold a singular cohesive style throughout the office. Which are important tasks in their own right. However, a stylish office isn’t the only aspect of an office that needs to be addressed up front.
The other side of that coin is functionality. An office that looks stylish but is disorganized is not a healthy work environment at all. Instead, a little time should be given to ensure that the office functions as well as it looks. A fu (Read More)

Over the past few days, I have been looking at the many awesome reception desks that we carry through our partners here at Madison Liquidators. Every time I start to talk about reception desks, I always make a note up front that this just may be the most important piece of office furniture in the entire office. As I have said multiple times and will continue to speak every chance I get, the reception desk sits in the first area of your office that guests enter, and that it is the first major office furniture piece that they will see.
If you want your office to have a positive first impression, then whatever your clients and guest first lay their eyes upon better be a h (Read More)

Modern offices are moving away from traditional cubicles more and more each year. The meteoric rise of open office workstations in the last decade has made manufacturers focus on desk pods. Over the last few years, they have brought fresh, and trendy designs to the market for their customers. These designs are extremely popular at Madison Liquidators. Today, I thought I would show several examples of four person workstations that are excellent alternatives to cubicle systems.
The primary question is how do they differ from cubicles? Mainly, cubicles partition co-workers off from one another, while open office workstations place co-workers together in joined office furn (Read More)

When thinking of a modern office, specifically the conference room the conventional thought for the office furniture is a modern shaped conference table. Like the boat shaped conference table that flairs out on the long ends so that everyone in the meeting can see each other, or the racetrack conference table that has rounded ends for a touch of uniqueness in the office furniture of the conference room. These two shapes seem to have been created for the modern office, but manufacturers are making a concerted effort to broaden the office furniture available for the aesthetic by applying modern touches to traditional conference table shapes.
With that in mind, I am going (Read More)

As I was researching my last blog, “A Guide to Finding the Right L-Shaped Desk for a Small Office” I kept coming back to the idea of my own L shaped desk in my home office. The more I studied and compiled data for the other blog, I also found myself setting aside inventory for ideas for corner desks and L shaped desks for a home office. It got to the point to where I had to decide to create a completely separate blog to highlight the idea of these pieces of office furniture for a home office. So, with that in mind we will look at Corner desks and L shaped desks for the home office.
First, let’s look at the distinction between the two because they most (Read More)

A small office can be challenging to furnish. Multiple issues arise when you begin the process of doing so. The most obvious is limited space with the conventional wisdom calling for small office furniture. However, this is often flawed due to the type of work that we do in our offices. Small desks just don’t allow us to perform the work that we are required to do daily. So, what do we do?
From my own personal experience in a small office in my home, I was able to find a fantastic desk that fit the requirements of my daily duties exceptionally well. How did I do this? When I arrived in Madison for my initial training, I sat down with the skilled co-workers who are (Read More)

Ah, the executive office. The office with the cool office furniture; it is near and dear to my heart. Not that I am an executive nor have an office with executive furniture… One phrase comes to mind when I think about executive office furniture- must be nice!

I’m not complaining, my desk is perfect for what I do but what sedan owner doesn’t dream about a sports car?
The high-end executive desk is the centerpiece of the office. It sets the tone for the entire workspace. Every aspect of the executive office feeds off the statement that the high-end (Read More)

These key aspects of the puzzle are often overlooked or forgotten completely with on-hand used office chairs or uncomfortable folding chairs in rare circumstances.

In life, first impressions are everything. In our relationships both personal and professional, it is more often than not the first impression that makes the biggest impact. These once in a lifetime moments carry extreme amounts of weight for us all. That’s why we spend so much time “primping” ourselves before big occasions such as a blind date or a job interview, we know that first impression is the biggest tool to get a positive response.
This is truly a principle that most of us live by. In a professional office a first impression is a must. When we enter a typical office, we are greeted by a reception area. It is an area designed to allow a smooth (Read More)

Height adjustable sit stand desks are taking the modern office by storm. Buzz words surround them in with hyperbole and exaggeration.

To begin to answer that we need to understand the meaning of the words. What exactly does ergonomic mean? According to the Merriam Webster dictionary ergonomics is defined as- an applied science concerned with designing and arranging things people use so that the people and things interact most efficiently and safe (Read More)
