When only half the team is in on any given day, the old seat-per-person model breaks. Here is what to build instead.
Hybrid work has quietly rewritten the rules of office design. When attendance fluctuates day to day, assigning one desk per employee wastes space and money. The smarter approach designs for flexibility from the ground up.
Shared, bookable desks
Hot-desking clusters with a simple booking system let you support more people in less space. Add personal lockers so nobody feels displaced.
More rooms for fewer walls
Hybrid teams meet constantly — in person and on video. Small, well-equipped call rooms and huddle pods matter more than rows of desks.
A reason to come in
If the office is just desks, people will stay home. Great lounges, cafés and collaboration zones give teams something the living room cannot.
Design for the days people choose to come in, and the office becomes a magnet rather than a mandate.
