Future Office
Problem
Computer screens are degrading our vision, prolonged sitting is weakening our hip muscles, constant work is degrading our wellbeing, office chatter is damaging our hearing and inflexible schedules are increasing stress. Small things add up. The future of work shouldn’t be an iteration on current solutions, it should be rethought
Solution
Back to Nature: less screens, less noise, less chairs, less work, more outdoors, more movement. The Future Office is almost a sacred place where people come for belonging, collaboration, community. Where people do their work and go home. A place that allows private, intimate and public types of communication, giving as much freedom as possible.
Research
We analysed the history of offices from prehistoric times to now and found that even though there were future thinking concepts, they either turned out to not work or were never implemented correctly. What’s clear is that most implementations were concerned more about productivity rather than wellbeing.
