The office furniture market in Malaysia is driven by the growing hybrid work model, demand for modern and functional designs, and the shift toward adaptable, ergonomic, and modular furniture.

Malaysia Office Furniture Market Trends:

Shift Toward Modern and Functional Designs

As companies strive to create office environments that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional, the demand for adaptable, modular, and compact furniture is increasing. Businesses are shifting away from traditional, fixed furniture arrangements, opting for items that offer flexibility and enhanced support for various work styles. This trend is also shaped by employee health, with a growing focus on ergonomic and health-oriented designs. With the rise of hybrid and remote work models, furniture requirements are evolving to accommodate these changing settings, emphasizing the integration of technology and multifunctional designs. The need for furniture that combines design with practicality is increasing, as businesses invest in styles that balance both visual appeal and usability. A distinct illustration of this transition appears in 2024, as WORQ launched its eighth coworking location at Sunway Putra Mall, conveniently situated along the PWTC LRT line. This marked WORQ’s seventh transit-oriented development (TOD) location in the Klang Valley, aimed at enhancing connectivity and promoting sustainable remote work options. The launch of these contemporary, adaptable coworking spaces underscores the growing demand for furniture that facilitates teamwork and enables companies to quickly adapt to evolving work trends. This trend highlights the growing emphasis on modern office layouts that prioritize both practicality and employee well-being. Thus, the rising demand for modern, practical, and adaptable designs is a crucial factor propelling the Malaysia office furniture market growth.

Growing Popularity of Hybrid Work Model

The rising trend of hybrid work models is driving the need for office furniture in Malaysia. With the transition towards flexible work arrangements, employees divide their time between home and the workplace, resulting in a change in the use of office spaces. This change is encouraging businesses to invest in furniture options that accommodate both traditional office environments and remote work arrangements. Modular furniture is highly sought after because it can be effortlessly rearranged for team discussions, personal workspaces, or virtual meetings. Moreover, companies are seeking furniture that facilitates a seamless transition between home and office work settings, such as adaptable desks and ergonomic chairs that are suitable for both environments. This trend indicates a wider movement towards flexibility and adaptability in office environments, with businesses emphasizing multifunctional and portable furniture elements. In line with this trend, in 2025, International Workplace Group (IWG) announced a new Signature center at Merdeka 118 in Kuala Lumpur, offering 637 workstations and flexible office solutions. This marks IWG’s fourth center within PNB properties, supporting the growing demand for hybrid workspaces in Malaysia. This move underscores the growing demand for office furniture that promotes a dynamic and flexible work environment, enabling companies to adapt to the evolving work landscape while equipping employees with the necessary adaptability.
