Getting Back into an Office Routine
We’re now almost a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, something that has required us to stay at home and rethink how we spend our days. By now, most of us are thinking longingly of our carefree days in the office and even of the commute to work.

Agile Businesses Need Agile
Office Neighborhoods
When your workspace shapes how you work, it is little wonder that workplace design is on everyone’s minds.

This is why we’ve seen the shift from cubicle farms to vast open-plan spaces – and now something in between. We call this flexible, something-for-everyone solution the “agile office neighborhood.”

In a time where working in coffee shops is no longer feasible and working side by side with colleagues is potentially dangerous… private offices make more and more sense. With so many of us now working from home, it’s becoming increasingly harder to create clear divisions between our jobs and our lives.
