Steven South, Design Director, sits down with I+S Design to talk about how although the office footprint is shrinking, the efficiency in design is growing.
“We’ve seen departments where people are underperforming and being asked to come in more often so they can achieve and maintain that growth in their careers.” So, there is also a need for spaces in the office that can foster that vital, in-person guidance.
“You have to understand what people actually do and how they work together,” when tasked with a downsizing project said South. “Once a company identifies that clear business objective and how the work needs to get done to support then, then you can build a program for them that supports that and rightsizes: making sure you get the right utilization, aren’t overbuilding the space, and that you’re building the right spaces.”
