The key to successfully furnishing a hotel lies in identifying your hotel’s unique style and brand. If you're looking to find the right furniture for a hotel and achieve a winning aesthetic for your hotel rooms, it's impossible to simply start buying furniture to go into every room. Everything actually starts at the end. Have you defined your hotel’s concept and target audience to determine the right furniture style? Have you considered the hotel’s location, architecture, and amenities when selecting furniture? Have you developed a brand identity that is reflected in the hotel’s furniture, color scheme, and decor? In this art (Read More)

    Minimalist Definition What are your first thoughts about minimalism? Having only a few items? Wearing only black t-shirts? Or is it more along the lines of being intentional about what you purchase? According to the well-known 'The Minimalists,' Minimalism is: "a tool to rid yourself of life's excess in favor of focusing on what's important - so you can find happiness, fulfillment, and freedom." For those that practice minimalism in their lives, they want to simplify their way of living, truly enjoy what they have and eliminate the stress that comes with owning and acquiring more and more. This may seem like a (Read More)

Office couches are common in many businesses across the world. They can be found in reception areas, waiting rooms, breakrooms, and executive offices. They are staples anywhere guests need seating. Depending on the business type, perhaps cheaper stackable chairs for a waiting room but selecting a high quality office couch will bring a higher level of a professional look for the office space. Selecting a stylish office couch set in place of cheaper alternatives is a choice that shows customers that their comfort is a priority to you. Office couch, love seat, and club chair seating not only brings a level of comfort, and a stylish look but it can help guests and customers f (Read More)

Madison Liquidators adds cubicle desks from Office Star Products. With international shipping delays, and other inventory shortages that have plagued the last couple years, Madison Liquidators has added a new office cubicle desk system to its fresh 2023 lineup from partner Office Star Products (OSP). Office furniture has been in short demand since the onset of the global pandemic. Supply chain issues have arisen over and over again, and no office furniture has felt the squeeze more than office cubicle desks. There have been times where office cubicle desk systems haven’t been available at all on the marketplace of Madison Liquidators, but OSP has answered the cal (Read More)

Executive offices require special office furniture, right? What’s the point of being in the big office if you can’t enjoy the benefits? If we take the 1980s yuppie phrase of “work hard, play harder” then we can assume that we should reward ourselves for making it to the top of the business. Okay, so that tongue in cheek spill was my attempt at humor, but the underlying message is true. Executive office furniture is built to higher standards than regular office furniture with the executive in mind. Let’s take executive office chairs for example. You will find larger office chairs with more comfort considerations built in, and more luxury ma (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)

Today I get to share some information that is near and dear to my heart. We are going to talk about gaming office furniture. More specifically, we are going to talk gaming desks, and gaming chairs. This is an emerging market that is growing by huge numbers every year. The reason being is that gaming has finally grown up! When we were children, we gathered around televisions with our favorite consoles and played games with our friends for hours. Now, we can do the same thing, just our friends don’t have to be in the room with us, they can be any where in the world as long as there is an internet connection. It’s a strange new world where some of your best fr (Read More)

The holiday season is a magical time! It’s where friends and family come together to celebrate life and love. A chance to remember lost loved ones and rejoice in making it to another year on this Earth. It’s a time of reflection, hope, forgiveness, and renewed optimism. For many, it’s a time to stop and recognize that no matter what the year held, we made it to the end. In the business world, the holiday season is a time of practical magic as they get to spend the remaining budget to refresh the office for the first quarter of the new year. This year is no different; these past months may have been long with boom and bust moments but suddenly, Q1 of 202 (Read More)

In meetings with specialists at Madison Liquidators, I had time to compare notes on office cabinets. It’s always interesting to see what another set of eyes will catch and what you may have missed and vise versa. Storage cabinets are often overlooked when doing “big picture” office furniture furnishing but in the end, office cabinet storage always finds a way to the forefront of the minds of everyone in a business environment. So with this writing, we are going to highlight different kinds of storage cabinets that are found on the Madison Liquidators online marketplace. “Our extensive collection of personal storage cabinet options will allow you (Read More)

At Madison Liquidators, when it comes to furnishing conference room take it in six steps. We begin at the centerpiece, the conference table and work outwards. This process ensures that a cohesive style is maintained throughout the workspace. It also allows you to plan for every aspect while just focusing on each furniture piece at a time. It’s a simple process that yields great results for our clients. When most clients reach out to us about furnishing an entire conference room, they are overwhelmed with a million thoughts in their head. Some are concerned about matching office furniture; others are afraid they will forget a key item or end up with a bad set up. (Read More)

The modern office continues to evolve as organizations place greater emphasis on employee wellness, flexibility, and long-term productivity. Traditional static workstations are increasingly being replaced by solutions that encourage movement throughout the workday. As expectations evolve, the role of the desk is no longer limited to providing a surface; it now contributes directly to how people work, feel, and perform. Height-adjustable office desks have become a core feature of this transition. By allowing users to alternate between sitting and standing positions, these workspaces introduce flexibility into environments that were once entirely sedentary. The ability (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)

Boss Office Products brings an intriguing and unexpected new desk chair for 2022. When I say unexpected for professional offices that are widely known primarily for their use of neutral colors, I mean they break the mold! Pink office chairs! Pink office chairs… I had to say it twice because it’s hard to believe. In a world of blacks, whites, and grays, Boss Office Products throws pink into the mix. Pink! A bold move to say the least. A move that I believe many will find appealing in pink office furniture. Pink office chairs at first glance can be a jarring look in an office setting, but in today’s more personable office setting can fit in the rig (Read More)

Making a good first impression on customers and clients is tantamount to operating a successful growing business.

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. Rectangular Desk Shell Starting Price- [Price-15985] Our partner Boss Office Products provides this pedestal desk shell as part of their Commerce Laminate series. Fro (Read More)

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)

There is very little more essential to modern culture than coffee. And not coffee only, but the experience of creating your perfectly personalized mix of beans, milk, and sweeteners, together with the atmosphere of the shop itself. The coffee shop has long been a hub for writers, those who want to quietly read a book, and if you're in Europe, solo drinkers who delight in sitting outside on a picturesque street to people watch. But how do we, as coffee shop owners create the atmosphere that our customers have come to love so much? Well, it starts with furnishings. In this article, we'll take a dive into creating the right coffee shop environment and what it takes to (Read More)

Today, as I sit down to write this, I am inspired by one of our brand partners. I’ve been researching modern office design for several days, and I have come to the conclusion that if I were to have the opportunity to furnish a modern office, I would do it with Groupe Lacasse. I would like to lead you through the rabbit hole so to speak and look at all phases of a modern office design with this trustworthy brand. We can look at this through the perspective of furnishing a modern office together. Before we begin, here is some information about this brand partner. “Groupe Lacasse’s mission is to offer high-quality products and complete furniture solution (Read More)

You may be seeing black and white everywhere, as it seems to be a trending interior color palette, but black and white has made the rounds in interior design in many iterations throughout the past. No matter how you feel about it currently, the timeless elegance of black and white has always been a pillar for simple and classic interiors. This classic duo offers endless possibilities for creating a dedicated home office that is both sophisticated and functional. The strongest cases for the color black, white, or both in a home office space tend to come from principles of minimalist home office design. Yet, this stylish combo is meant to help emphasize color through (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)

Office chairs are one of the most critical purchases for every office. The chair provides comfort and support throughout the workday, every day, all year long; or at least it’s supposed to. It should be a safe assumption that everyone has had to endure a poor-quality chair in the past, or perhaps even now. I know that I can think back on a particular chair and my back aches in remembrance at just the thought of it. Some people look at the copy machine scene in the Office Space movie and relate, but for me I would have loved to take a baseball bat to this so-called office chair. Today, I thought I would highlight a selection of heavy duty office chairs to help pro (Read More)

Introduction If you are involved in the healthcare industry and need to set up a hospital, clinic, physical therapy center, or any other essential service that cares for the health and well-being of people living in your community, then you may be in the process of researching which hospital furniture you need to furnish your space with exactly to create a welcoming and comforting environment. While there is so much to say about patient room furniture and the right adjustable hospital room furniture, there are lesser-known, or just simply lesser-thought-about, furniture for hospitals that are important to the impression left on patients and the working experience (Read More)

Let’s begin with a quote “All great changes in America begins at the dinner table.” Anyone know who said that? Former President and founder of Reaganomics, Ronald Reagan. Before we get into a full blown discussion about the economy and trickling down, let’s apply that to business. “All great changes in business begins at the office conference table.” Reagan was right about needing a place to communicate clearly. His thoughts are from parent to child, we have flipped it from management to worker. This is absolutely true for this one simple fact; email effectiveness has its limits. A face to face meeting can be far more impactful than (Read More)

I am excited to announce that one of Madison Liquidators' longest standing brand partners- Harmony Collection has released new standing desk with drawers to our online marketplace!

After years, decades, and centuries even of office workers spending their lives hunched over a desk full time for careers, we are finding more and more health conscious options from top office furniture designers such as Harmony Collection. Let's dive right in and begin with the most basic question of all. What is a Standing Desk with Drawers? A standing desk with drawers is a spacious type of desk that c (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)

So, you’re in need of a big desk? Madison Liquidators can help. We have a fantastic selection of U shaped desks with hutches. These office furniture selections not only does the U shaped design provide three large desktop work areas, but the added hutch also provides a high level of storage space is a game changer for a highly productive office worker. One of the biggest considerations to make for a U shaped desk with hutch is that it takes up a large amount of square footage compared to other office furniture options. Another note is that the hutch needs to be set against an office wall for stability so placement in the office will need attention prior to purchase (Read More)

At some point in our lives, we may all have the opportunity (for good or bad) to visit a law office. And if you're a new lawyer opening your own practice for the first time, it's important to give an impression that conveys professionalism and strength. That's why the design, layout, and even style of your office furniture can have a huge impact on how not only potential clients but also competitors see you. In this article, we're going to highlight a few pieces of commercial office furniture that we believe are some of the best options, even essential, for law offices and legal professionals. Law Office Design Styles and Furniture Pieces (Read More)

Modern office trends can be difficult to track—staying ahead of the curve is no easy task. But by examining how the landscape has shifted over just the past two years, we can begin to identify the patterns that will shape 2026 and beyond. The business world moves fast, and nowhere is that more evident than in the rapid evolution of workplace design from 2024 to today. With that in mind, this analysis will look back at the defining trends of 2024, explore how those trends transformed in 2025, and offer forward-looking predictions for what to expect in 2026. And there’s no better place to start than with the ongoing evolution of the hybrid work model. Hybrid W (Read More)

Executive chairs just sit different. Pardon my slang, but it’s true. Executive chairs are considered to be high end office furniture that belongs in the big office. However, just because the name is executive chair doesn’t mean that they can only be found in an executive office. Any office can enjoy the upscale design of these desk chairs. So, anyone who needs a more comfortable or more ergonomically designed office chair should consider purchasing one. One of our partners- Boss Office Products a leader in office furniture, has quite a few exceptional executive chairs available on the Madison Liquidators online marketplace. I picked out six of my personal fav (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)

I was talking to management about my latest release Small Conference Tables for a Small Business or Executives Office when a larger conversation about conference tables broke out. I know that may seem weird to some people but you would be surprised just how much we talk about random office furniture not just during the 9 to 5, but seven days a week! Upon further reflection, I can see why there are so many cop and doctor dramas on television. Can you imagine a The Office type television show that revolves around office furniture instead of paper? Oh my goodness… million dollar idea! Hold up, before I start writing my masterpiece pilot episode, maybe I need to share (Read More)

A larger office typically has a reception area to match. It just makes sense; a larger office has a higher potential for guests being in the office. A busy office will need ample reception space to maintain the flow of traffic into the office. To accomplish this, a reception area needs a reception desk to handle this traffic. With a larger space an opportunity presents itself. A large reception desk! The potential can be huge. This could be a large two-person receptionist desk or a single seat piece of office furniture. There are near endless possibilities. With that in mind, I have compiled a selection of unique office furniture options to fit in a large reception are (Read More)

Chances are, if you follow interior design and decor trends, then you`ve seen a lot more dark, deep or moody offices and home office spaces. Whether or not you prefer a bright and sunny office or the jeweled tones of the dark academia office, the dark academia trend, overall, is here to stay. What is a Dark Academia Office? Dark academia takes its name, and inspiration, from traditional libraries and university halls. Imagine, the library with larger-than-life ceilings, chandeliers illuminating thick wooden and ornate rows of tables, tall bookshelves surrounding the space filled with old, well-worn books of different colors, seating areas that use chesterfi (Read More)

Four people seems to be the perfect group size. The Beatles, the Fantastic Four, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, The Seinfeld cast, South Park, and the Four Horsemen (the wrestling stable, not the apocalyptic version) are the cream of the crop of foursomes. But what about the office world? Doesn’t it seem like most businesses have that definitive foursome that works well together? Absolutely! But how can we take this foursome to the next level? For the remainder of this blog, I will reference my favorite quartet of all time- The Golden Girls. One of our brand partners, Corp Design has released to us the Veloce Series that features several four person workstation (Read More)

I do all my writing in my home office, and I recently realized that I don’t talk enough about office furniture selections for a space like this. Many of us began working from a dedicated space in our homes around the time of the onset of Covid-19 and have stayed there ever since. In a place such as this, a lot of times the work area is small because we just don’t have all that much square footage to give up for a home office. So, over the next few months, I will be looking at office furniture that will fit in small places inside a home office or even that professional business that doesn’t have much workspace. Today I will begin this series with the o (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)

Keeping the office clean and organized can be a chore for if there is not adequate storage. When we talk about keeping the office clean and free of clutter, we often think of waste baskets, but clutter is more than waste. Clutter can be ink pens on the desktop or files stacked on top of a conference table or even books strown about haphazardly. These examples perfectly show the difference between a professional looking office and one that does not have adequate storage cabinet space. Storage cabinets are the unsung heroes of office organization. They provide a place for everything in the office. When things need a place that will not fit in a desk drawer a storage cabi (Read More)

Madison Liquidators has built its reputation by placing customer support at the center of the office furniture buying experience. Furnishing a workspace—whether a full corporate office or a single workstation—should not involve unnecessary guesswork. For that reason, we develop tools and resources designed to simplify the planning process and help customers make confident decisions. One of the most common challenges organizations face when purchasing office furniture is understanding how everything fits within the space. Desks that appear perfectly sized on a product page may overcrowd a room. Workstation clusters can unintentionally restrict traffic flow (Read More)

I’d like to continue our look into white office furniture. Our previous look was at white reception desk ideas which affects the front office the most. This time I want to look at white conference tables. From the front office to the inner circle of most office settings. According to Office.Furniture white is “a symbol of innocence, wholesomeness, and completion” and “conveys a lot of ideals about trustworthiness, honesty, and home.” In effect white is a go to color for an office that wants to project cleanliness, style, and substance. With this in mind, we will be looking at four white conference table ideas. But one does not simply selec (Read More)

Designed to bear heavier weights without compromising on ergonomic design, these chairs epitomize durability, functionality, and unwavering reliability in the active landscape of office furniture. --product-display-box-- Key Features of Heavy Duty Office Chairs Let's see what's in sto (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)

Returning to my obsession with white office furniture for this year, I thought that I would take a look at white desks this time but with a twist. I’ll share that twist a little later but before I do, I want to set the tone by looking first at a fantastic example of everything great about a white desk. Before we begin, I want to highlight what to expect from these white desks. Openness, clean lines, and warmth are all ways I would describe a vibrant office with a white desk. According to office.furniture “A white finish can open up the office, especially when in conjuncture with natural lighting. The partnership of these two properties changes a space treme (Read More)
