The different types of office fitout and what they cost

An open plan office fitout is a practical, cost-effective solution for organisations with tight budgets. Featuring budget or refurbished workstations, screens, low-rise storage, and huddle booths for quiet work, the layout includes a kitchenette, hydration stations, meeting pods, collaboration areas, and an open office.

With minimal finishes and few permanent partitions, this flexible design reduces fitout and approval costs while creating an efficient, easily adaptable working environment that often operates without a traditional reception.

An open plan fitout would cost between $550 and $600 + GST a square metre and include:

  • Lower construction requirements reduce fitout costs
  • Workstations can be reconfigured with minimal disruption
  • Quiet zones for focused work and private conversations
  • Shared kitchenettes and hydration stations

Staff amenities include a fully equipped kitchen, breakout spaces, hydration stations, and shower facilities. Glass and plasterboard partitions,  varied floor finishes, and quality laminate furniture create a practical, refined, and visually cohesive workplace.
