How much does commercial office furniture cost?

It depends, and yes, we know that's not the answer you were hoping for. There are so many variables it's impossible to give you an accurate number without some discussion. Office furniture projects can range from a few thousand dollars to well into six figures depending on scope, product selections, and the size of your space. We work with a wide range of budgets and are always upfront about where your dollars are going and we pride ourselves on being strong stewards of your financial investment. The best way to get a real number? Let's talk about your space.

How long does an office furniture project take?

Timelines vary based on the complexity of your project and product lead times, but most projects run anywhere from a few weeks to a few months from design through installation. Custom or large-scale buildouts may take longer. We'll map out a realistic timeline early on so there are no surprises — and we're obsessive about keeping things on track.

Do you offer space planning services?

Absolutely. Space planning is one of our favorite things to nerd out on. We'll look at your square footage, headcount, work styles, and growth plans to create a layout that works for your needs today and beyond. Whether you're starting from a blank floor plan or rethinking what you've got, we're on it.

What is included in workplace design?

More than picking out chairs! Our workplace design process is tailored to each client and can include space planning, furniture specification, finish and material selection, budgeting, procurement, and installation management. We think about how people actually use a space, how they collaborate, focus, and move through their day, and design around that.

Do you work outside of Kansas City?

We do. Kansas City is home base, but we work with clients nationally. We're also actively serving the Dallas, TX, Denver, CO and Phoenix, AZ markets. If your project is somewhere else entirely, let's talk — we've got the infrastructure and the partnerships to make it work no matter where you are.

Can Trilogie work with our existing furniture, or does everything need to be new?

We can absolutely work with existing pieces. Not everything needs to be replaced, and a good workspace consultant will tell you that. We do an honest assessment of what you have, what's worth keeping, and what's holding the space back. Sometimes a targeted investment in new seating or a reconfigured layout makes more impact than a full replacement. We'll tell you what we think, and you make the call.

What furniture brands does Trilogie carry?

We're an independent commercial furniture dealership, which means we're not locked into one manufacturer's catalog. We work with a curated portfolio of contract-grade brands across systems furniture, seating, casegoods, tables, lounge, and architectural products — and we select product based on what's right for your project, not what we're incentivized to sell. During your consultation, we'll walk you through options that fit your design intent, budget, and lead time requirements.

The Ultimate Guide to Workplace Wellness Apps and Tools

6 min read

Pile of colorful app icons with social, music, chat, and camera symbols; yellow banner reads 30 IN 30 and Day 29.

You’ve stuck with us for nearly 30 days! The finish line is near. 😉 After these 29 days, you know you should take more breaks, drink more water, block your time, and protect your focus. The hard part isn’t really knowing what to do. It’s building the systems that make it easy to actually do it.

That’s what this post is for.

We spent the month of May publishing a post every single day on workplace wellness — everything from ergonomics and lighting to mental health, sleep, acoustics, and focus. Day 29 is about putting it all together. Below is a list of apps, tools, and resources we think are worth knowing about, organized by category, so you can pick what fits your life and build something sustainable.

You don’t need all of these. You just need a few good ones.

The Ultimate Guide to Workplace Wellness Apps and Tools

Focus and the Pomodoro Technique

If you haven’t read our post on taking breaks the right way, start there. The Pomodoro Method is one of the simplest focus systems. These tools make it automatic.

Forest — Grows a virtual tree during your focus session. Leave the app, and the tree dies. Surprisingly effective as a commitment device.
Focus Keeper (iOS/Android) / Be Focused (Apple) — Clean, straightforward Pomodoro timers with session tracking.
Pomofocus.io — Free, browser-based, no download required. The lowest-friction entry point if you want to try Pomodoro today.
Focus@Will — Music and audio engineered specifically to improve concentration. Different from just putting on a playlist.

Time Blocking and Daily Planning

Time blocking is the practice of scheduling your tasks into specific chunks of time rather than working from a to-do list. It sounds simple. It changes everything. We covered the why in our post on deep work and distraction — here are the tools that make it stick.

Full Focus Planner — Michael Hyatt’s paper planner built around time blocking and daily priorities. Analog in a world full of apps, which is exactly why it works for a lot of people. If you’ve tried digital tools and they haven’t clicked, try this.
Sunsama — Pulls your tasks from Asana, Notion, Gmail, and your calendar into one daily view. Built specifically for intentional time blocking.
Reclaim.ai — Automatically carves out focus blocks on your calendar based on your priorities and adjusts when things shift.
Motion — AI-powered daily scheduler that builds your day for you and rebuilds it in real time when plans change.
Structured — Visual, timeline-based daily planner. Clean and intuitive. Strong option if you’re on iOS or Mac.
Google Calendar — Worth naming explicitly. You already have it. A simple color-coded time blocking system in a tool you’re already in is an underrated starting point.
Notion — A basic daily template in Notion is a zero-cost time blocking system. If you’re already living in Notion, start here before adding another app.

Digital Distraction and Focus Protection

We wrote a whole post on notification culture and what it costs you. The short version: every interruption costs more time than the interruption itself. These tools help you build walls around your focus time.

Freedom — Blocks distracting sites and apps across all your devices simultaneously. Schedules in advance so you can’t talk yourself out of it in the moment.
Cold Turkey — The hardcore option. Once a block is set, it’s very hard to override. Good if you have low impulse control around your phone.
RescueTime — Runs quietly in the background and tells you exactly where your time actually went. The data is humbling. It’s also useful.
One Sec — Adds a deliberate pause before you can open a distracting app. That one second of friction is enough to break the automatic reflex for a lot of people.
Opal — Screen time manager with session scheduling. iOS only.

Movement and Physical Breaks

Sitting is the topic we covered on Day 10 and again when we talked about ergonomics. Movement breaks aren’t optional — they’re recovery. These tools remind you to actually take them.

Stretchly — Free, open-source break reminder with built-in stretch prompts. Works across Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Stand Up! The Work Break Timer — Reminds you to get up and move at whatever intervals you set. Simple and effective.
Eye Care 20 20 20 — Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. This app reminds you. Your eyes will thank you.
7 Minute Workout — Short bodyweight routines designed for people who don’t have time to not do them.

Hydration

We covered hydration and energy earlier in the series. The research is clear: even mild dehydration affects focus and mood. These apps remove the “I just forgot” excuse.

WaterMinder — Tracks daily water intake with smart reminders based on your goals.
Hydro Coach — Personalizes your hydration target based on body weight and activity level.
Plant Nanny — Gamified water tracking with a virtual plant. Silly. Works anyway.
Daily Water Tracker Reminder (Android) — Simple, no-frills logging if you just want the basics.

Sleep and Recovery

We wrote about sleep because it is the single highest-leverage wellness behavior most people are underinvesting in. No app replaces actual sleep, but these help you understand and protect it.

Sleep Cycle — Tracks your sleep quality and wakes you during your lightest sleep phase so you don’t feel like a truck hit you.
Rise — Tracks your sleep debt and maps your daily energy peaks so you can schedule hard work when your brain is actually online.
Calm — Sleep stories, wind-down meditations, and breathing tools. Strong for people who have trouble shutting the brain off at night.
Oura Ring app — The most detailed sleep and recovery data available in a wearable. Pairs with the ring hardware.

Mental Health and Stress

Mental health was the thread running through this entire series — it’s Mental Health Awareness Month for a reason. These tools don’t replace professional support, but they’re useful daily companions.

Headspace — Guided meditation, stress management, and focus sessions. One of the most accessible entry points into a consistent practice.
Calm — Fits here too. Breathing tools, daily check-ins, and a strong sleep library.
Daylio — Micro mood journal. No writing required. Just tap your mood and what you did. The patterns it reveals over time are worth seeing.
Sanvello — Mood tracking, coping tools, and access to therapy. More clinical than Headspace, which is a feature for some people.
Woebot — AI-based tool grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy techniques. Good for people who want structured support in an accessible format.

Noise, Acoustics, and Focus Sound

The acoustic environment is one of the most overlooked factors in workplace wellness. What you’re listening to — or what you can’t block out — affects your ability to think. These tools help.

Noisli — Customizable ambient sound mixer. Rain, white noise, café sounds, forest. You build the blend.
Brain.fm — AI-generated focus music backed by neuroscience research. Different from music in that it’s designed specifically to support sustained attention.
A Soft Murmur — Browser-based ambient noise blender. Free and no account needed.
Krisp — AI noise cancellation for calls. Relevant if you’re hybrid and dealing with open-office background noise on video meetings.

Screen and Eye Health

We talked about screen fatigue and lighting earlier in the series. Eight hours of screen time takes a toll. These tools mitigate it.

f.lux — Automatically warms your screen’s color temperature as the day progresses to match natural light. Free and runs in the background.
Iris — Blue light filter with built-in break reminders. More customizable than f.lux.
Night Shift (built into Apple devices) / Night Light (Windows) — Already on your device. Turn it on today.

One Last Thing

The best wellness tool is the one you’ll actually use. Start with one category that feels like the biggest gap right now and pick one app. Use it for two weeks before adding anything else.

Wellness isn’t a stack of apps. It’s a set of habits. The apps just make the habits easier to keep.

This is Day 29 of our 30-in-30 Workplace Wellness series. We’ve spent the month covering every dimension of how your physical environment affects how you feel, focus, and function at work. Tomorrow is the last one. We’ll see you there.

From the Trilogie team

Every topic in this series comes back to the same idea: the space you work in either supports your wellbeing or works against it. Apps can help you track, remind, and build habits. But the physical environment sets the baseline on which it all runs.
