Office needs can change faster than a lease. Headcount grows, teams reorganise and hybrid work changes how the office is used.
Do not size only for today
A solution that is too tight can become restrictive quickly, while a large safety margin can create unnecessary vacant square metres.
Adaptable layouts create options
Workstation areas, private rooms, meeting rooms and shared zones can sometimes be reorganised as needs change.
Growth is not only about more desks
A growing company may need more meeting rooms, retreat spaces, project areas or client spaces rather than simply adding workstations.
Change can also mean needing less space
Reorganisation, increased hybrid work or new team structures can reduce or reshape the space requirement.
What should you ask before signing?
Ask how the layout can change, what kinds of modifications are possible, what other space sizes exist in the property and how a space-change process works.
