Happy Furniture Friday! As we head into a long Memorial Day weekend, I’m excited to share some insights inspired by Fast Company's article on how your office can boost productivity. According to the 2024 Global Workplace Study by Gensler, workers today are less focused on the debate of whether to go into the office and more on how the office can enhance their productivity. The study reveals that high-performing workplaces share key factors, including spaces designed for informal conversations, video conferences, focused work, and relaxation or recharging. Thank you to Gensler and Michelle Liebling for providing such valuable information to our industry. Let’s continue to create workspaces that support our best work! #FurnitureFriday #WorkplaceStrategy #Productivity #OfficeDesign #Gensler #GlobalWorkplaceStudy #fastcompany #vari #furnituretobeproductive #workfromwork Vari

With fewer than a third of global workplaces having been redesigned in the last three years, there’s a need for organisations to “intentionally rethink office spaces to boost company culture and drive business growth”. These "top-performing workplaces" were often located in "amenity-rich” neighbourhoods and are part of a wider environment that includes diverse spaces such as libraries, cafés, outdoor areas, and co-working spaces.

”Social well-being thrives when office design aligns with the company’s culture and values, fostering a sense of belonging and supporting diverse modes of interaction. Especially in the hybrid work era, nurturing workplace culture and meaningful relationships enhances well-being, job satisfaction, and productivity.” The diversity and sustainability of workplace design have always resonated with me in a special way. In this work, human behavior, experience, and emotion guide and give each project its own dimension.
Innovation, creativity, and well-being flourish when rooted in empathy and a deep understanding of the needs of the individuals and communities. A paradigm shift defines modern workplace design - evolving into dynamic ecosystems, contemporary offices aim to enhance holistic well-being and productivity of its users. Within the design process at Fyra, elements promoting physical, social, and mental well-being, alongside ecological responsibility, come together under the guiding principle of life-centric design thinking.

Hybrid work has changed the way organizations design their office space. New trends focus on creating workplaces that are flexible, collaborative, sustainable, and inclusive. By incorporating these trends into workplace design, companies can create a more productive and positive work environment. The design team at CBRE has introduced four different office concepts that support different company objectives and workplace strategies. Each concept allocates a different % to focus and collaboration work based on the purpose of the office. Offices designed for activity based working have been the most common and have lead to the highest utilization rates. #WorkplaceDesign #OfficeTrends #EmployeeEngagement #CBRE.

The Office: Magnet or Mandate? Imagine an office that draws you in, not one you're forced to slog to. This concept of the office as a magnet rather than a mandate perfectly captures the shift in work culture, especially with all these tech leaps we are witnessing with each passing day. So, how to create this magnetic workplace? 1. Focus on the Why: Clearly communicate the purpose of in-office work. Is it brainstorming sessions? Team bonding? Let the hoi polloi understand the value of being physically present. Open communication - I think that goes a long way. 2. Design Matters: Create an inspiring workspace with comfortable areas for collaboration and concentration. Think ergonomic furniture, natural light, and breakout spaces. 3. Work-life Harmony: Offer flexible hours and remote work options. This empowers employees to manage their schedules and fosters a sense of trust without any feeling of micro management. 4. Community Counts: Plan social events and team-building activities to strengthen relationships and make the office a place people want to be at. One such brilliant activity that I witnessed is of 'Treasure hunt' for the employees. By prioritizing these aspects, you can transform your office from a mandate to a magnet, attracting and retaining top talent in today's dynamic work environment. Let me know what other factors come up in your mind. #mondaymantra
