Customer Story A Budget-Friendly Office in Downers Grove
OFR’s Account Manager/Principal Owner, Stephanie Durbin, recently completed a budget-friendly office furniture project at an office space in Downers Grove, Illinois. The goal was simple: create a complete, professional workspace while making the most of the client’s furniture budget.
The approximately 2,700-square-foot office included seven workstations, four private offices, common-area storage, task and conference seating, and a small kitchenette. By carefully selecting and combining furniture solutions throughout the space, OFR was able to furnish the office for approximately $8.50 per square foot, including delivery and installation.

Making the Most of the Budget
Creating a functional office does not always require purchasing everything new. OFR specializes in finding opportunities to combine quality pre-owned furniture with new components to create spaces that look cohesive while keeping costs under control.
For the workstations, OFR utilized pre-owned components and sit-to-stand bases paired with new worksurfaces. This approach gave employees the benefits of height-adjustable workstations without the cost of purchasing entirely new systems. Private offices were furnished with practical case goods and storage, while task and conference seating helped complete the workspace. Common-area storage and kitchenette furniture ensured that the smaller supporting spaces were just as functional as the primary work areas. And a new N9NE conference table with integrated power created a polished centerpiece for the conference space while providing convenient connectivity for meetings and collaboration.
A Complete Office for Less
From workstations and private offices to conference furniture, seating, storage, and installation, OFR helped turn the 2,700-square-foot space into a complete working office while staying focused on value. At approximately $8.50 per square foot with delivery and installation included, the finished project demonstrates what is possible when new and pre-owned office furniture are strategically combined.
For businesses looking to furnish a new office, relocate, or refresh an existing workspace, OFR can help create a solution that fits the space, the way employees work, and the budget.
