Know more about The Total Office

Our Story

The Total office continues to push forward innovating on its service and delivery while encompassing wider aspects of the workspace experience which include ergonomic consulting, acoustic design & workspace wellbeing.

The Total Office story started nearly 20 years ago drawn up on the back of a napkin in the most unlikely of places.. a hospital.

Designing and delivering a first class customer experience were not common titles you could pick up at a book store, though it was the very core on which the organization was built on.

While its founder Jacob Peters is no longer with us, his values are still reflected in every process through the breath of the company.
