SOLUTIONS
There are currently significant changes in workplace design, influence by globalisation. Consideration of your operational business needs will determine the design of your office. Offices today typically offer a range of environment including traditional workstation, hot desking, meeting rooms, break-out area and chillout zones.
In current competitive markets, space is at a premium. Consequently, over rent years, many organisations have implemented alternative desking solutions and space-efficient ways of working, driving down office accommodation costs and increasing productivity.
Covid-19 has influenced how businesses can operate and we anticipate that working from home, hot desking, flexible solutions will be the new norm for many companies.
Face to face communication remains the best method of communication and informal areas for impromptu meeting, collaboration area will still demand a need for offices.
