Spa Trends of 2022

Check out some of the latest trends in the spa industry and how Hollman lockers can help you achieve it.

When clients come to a spa, they vision a getaway place to relax and get pampered. While the services offered are crucial for clients, the environment is a significant factor in whether people decide to choose your spa for its service.

Creating an environment for your clients will attract new members and will drive retention rates up. Through color and design, décor can be an extension of your brand. With Hollman, design lockers that compliment your space while providing the necessary storage for your member’s personal.

TRENDING SPA STYLES

BOHO:

The look/concept: Browns, burgundy, white, and tan everything. Boho has popularly involved cacti and desert-type vibes, including items like fuzzy white rugs, gold accents shown through lighting and art pieces, and natural wood. The boho-chic style is notorious for having neutral or earth tones with a free-flowing design. 

GARDEN:

The look/concept: Bringing the outdoors in with nature-inspired designs and decorations. Natural wood, green tones with biophilic design accents. Connecting with nature has been a trend in wellness for years and members will appreciate spas that embrace the great outdoors.

MINIMALIST:

The look/concept: Clean lines, monochromatic tones, neutrals, and simplicity. The style is truly “minimal” keeping rooms open, with lots of lighting, allowing accent pieces or lockers to be the focus of the room. 

Today’s spa are more than retreat spaces, thanks to health trends and customers who demand more for their membership dollar. See how Hollman can help you create a locker room that is functional, attractive, and above the competition.

Project Insights | Neighborly

Neighborly Workspace Lockers Provided by Hollman

Neighborly Plano TX

Hollman has helped pave the way for hybrid, dynamic workplaces. Our project with Neighborly perfectly illustrates that Hollman is more than just lockers. Neighborly, the global franchisor of home service brands, sought to expand its headquarters by opening a new office in Irving, TX. “We’ve been looking for some time now for the right opportunity to open a new Neighborly hub in the North Texas area that is perfectly suited for the continued growth of our worldwide business,” said Mike Bidwell, president and CEO of Neighborly. 

Neighborly’s goals for the office are to expand, with plans to grow from 60 to 200 full-time associates, including existing and entirely new positions, by 2026. With 34,000 square feet to work with, Hollman got busy.

By understanding that the workplace has pivoted from traditional to hybrid, Neighborly sought out storage solutions that would provide employees, in and out of the office, with a safe and secure location to store personal items. They needed collaboration spaces, refreshment centers, and elegant ways to keep waste and recycle bins… they needed more than just lockers. And with years of experience customizing projects, Hollman was perfect for the job. We were able to curate a solution tailored to fit all of Neighborly’s needs.

The storage solutions were placed throughout the office, beginning at the entrance near the employee lounge. The first solution you see when you walk in is the Double Tier – Model B locker wall built with our smooth finish Laminate in designer white. The use of white helps to create an illusion of space that opens the room. The Model B configuration allows for added storage for employees to hang garments and accessories like a purse, laptop bags, small suitcases, umbrellas, etc.

Hollman Workspace Lockers

Hollman utilized the Model A lockers to create credenzas for collaboration spaces and refreshment centers. These credenzas were built with Textured Laminate to imitate the look and feel of natural wood. The use of laminate offers a more durable and sustainable approach to that of using solid wood. As seen in the image above, labeled bins were incorporated into the design to allow an elegant space for waste and recycling. The results of this project gave them a space where they feel comfortable housing their number of employees and for future dynamic changes.

              Project Insights: Siemens Headquarters’ Workspace Storage Solutions

              Siemens New Way of Working, with Hollman Workspace Lockers

              INTRODUCTION

              The team at Siemens was interested in creating a modern office for their employees. Siemens headquarters chose Hollman Lockers to create workspace storage solutions for their new office. They worked together with Hollman’s sales and design teams to develop a functional and flexible workspace.

              Siemens has been adapting to the open-concept workspace throughout the years. In an article from 2012 about their new Orlando office, Siemens branded the term, NewWOW. Short for “New Way of Working,” the design allowed the company to trade the traditional office culture for added collaboration as it downsized its quarters. Based on the “hotel concept,” which lets employees move among desks equipped with phones and computers, the New Way of Working goes further by providing both computing power and phone service via portable laptops. It also includes workspace lockers. The lockers allow employees to stash their belongings when they’re not using them.

              CHALLENGE

              Siemens headquarters’ team laid out their goals for their new workspace. Firstly, they wanted their lockers to have a few pops of color. Secondly, to allow employees to move around freely. Thirdly, to offer a lock system that wouldn’t require a key or code.

              SOLUTION + BENEFIT

              Siemens headquarters got a high-quality product with all of the features they wanted with Hollman’s workspace lockers’ help. Hollman assembled lockers with multi-colored laminate doors. Popular colors such as red, yellow, blue, green, orange, and more add a tasteful hint of color to the white lockers. The team went with a laminate interior for a clean finishing touch.

              There is a mix of two-tier and four-tier lockers. Both are the same dimensions of 15W x 24D x 72H, which provides employees with plenty of space to store their belongings. In turn, the lockers allow employees to move around freely throughout the office.

              Hollman also installed a Vecos lock system on the lockers. Vecos is a smart lock that allows users to access their locker through an app on their phones. Most importantly, no keys or combination codes are required to get into their lockers. As a result, the smart locks are extremely user-friendly.

              RESULTS

              In conclusion, Hollman’s workspace lockers were the perfect solution to fit Siemens headquarters office needs. Siemens headquarters workspace lockers feature a touchless security solution provided by Vecos and a flexible storage solution provided by Hollman.
