The Total Office, the UAE based company specialising in modern, ergonomic and environment friendly workspace solutions, celebrated the opening of its spacious new outlet in Dubai with a fashion show by top Canadian designer Annie Thompson.

 

The LEED rated showroom displays the latest products from international commercial interior design brands like Teknion, Codutti , Emmegi, Frezza , Casamania, Colebrook Bosson Saunders, Office Electrics ,SBS, Powerdesk Technologies, HAG, Manerba, Orangebox, Kusch & Co. and Office Essentials. It features innovative new designs from a vast product portfolio that support in creating healthy, productive work environments.

Located in Grosvenor Business Tower in Tecom, the 7000 sq.ft showroom is visually stunning and is designed by Mehdi Moazzen of UAE based design firm Point of Design. In line with The Total Office’s commitment to environment, the showroom follows the regulations of U.S. Green Building Council LEED version 3.0 for Commercial Interiors for high-performance green interiors that are healthy, productive places to work; are less costly; and have a reduced environmental footprint. On an average, The Total Office’s Dubai outlet uses 30% percent less energy than a typical showroom of the same size and utilizes technologies such as automatic dimming lights, LED lighting, energy saving appliances; and ensures indoor environment quality and water efficiency.

“We are committed to reducing our carbon footprint by embracing energy efficiency methods in line with UAE’s Green Building initiatives. Our Abu Dhabi showroom was the first LEED certified facility of its kind in the capital and for Dubai, we have adhered to the requirements of the latest version of LEED system,” said Siddharth Peters, Managing Director, The Total Office.

“Manufacturers we partner with are also committed to creating sustainable working environments and we have a range of green products in store including ergonomic chairs and led free energy saving LED lighting,” he added.

The showroom gives architects and interior designers a view of the best solutions and designs available for meeting emerging workplace trends and causing only the minimum environmental impact. The outlet features mock- up offices and extensive use of glass allowing natural light to penetrate. There are a series of temporary and shared workstations typical of today’s open, collaborative and creative workplaces; and mock-ups of lobby, executive cabins, conference rooms and coffee bar.

Customers and partners joined the celebrations to mark the opening of The Total Office in Dubai and enjoyed the fashion show by Annie Thompson who was displaying her collections for the first time in Dubai. Thompson is a couture designer who has also made her mark as an artist, textile sculpturist and an advocate of Eco-fashion. Inspired by the fabric that Teknion uses in their furniture lines, the collection was eco-friendly and imaginative.
