How will your office evolve to enhance relationship building and face-to-face communication in ways that best fit people’s lifestyles and working need? Let’s explore the growing trends for today’s modern workplace.
What Is A Collaborative Office Design?
A collaborative office space is one that has both areas for small teams to freely share knowledge and ideas and places for focused work.
Here are a few key features of collaborative workspaces:
•Interconnected open spaces that promote “bump-ins” among employees. For example, in New York, the Google Campus is designed so that no-one is more than 150 feet away from food, whether it’s a restaurant, cafeteria or micro-kitchen.
•Open collaborative seating in central areas for impromptu meetings and to foster creativity.
•Common gathering spots throughout the office where employees can socialize, share information and boost one another’s morale. For example, the Pixar Campus has a large central atrium with a café, theater, fitness center and recreation areas.
•Designated areas that encourage focused work near others, yet provide the privacy one requires.
What Is A Dynamic Workplace?
A dynamic workplace is an office that has mova- ble furniture to change an office space and allow different activities to be carried out within that space.
What is a Hybrid Workplace
A hybrid workplace is an office that adapts a flexible work environment to cater to a mix of remote and office-based work. An office may have a designated area for flex desking, which allows for hybrid working to occur. These desks are available to be used by any one in the office.
