Your office interior is more than just a few pieces of furniture that you use for work. It gives you and your clients the impression of what the company represents and what it stands for. Interior design plays a huge role in providing the right experience to people visiting the office, and one of the most important parts of designing the interior is finding the right colour pallet.
