How Can Data-driven Strategies Support The Evolution Of Workplace Design?

Our relationship with work has changed significantly since the pandemic. While remote work continues to be an option for some, many people are returning to physical buildings with a set of expectations beyond the traditional office. These new norms can include a new balance between closed and open offices with adequate lighting and better boundaries. Clients and employees have come to understand that when it comes to work, one size does not fit all. To fulfill expectations and create an optimized workplace for employees, clients need a design strategy. And that requires a data-driven and evidence-based approach.

In the last five years, more than 150 peer-reviewed papers have been published globally with the focus on workplace Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and design strategies. But until recently, there was no way to share this critical data with the people who need it most, designers and their clients.
