Floor Plan 2.0: Discovering Your Future Office
10
However, the only way anyone could prescribe a post-COVID
office floor plan for your organization is by analyzing and
reacting to the data you collect in the months to come. The
overarching trends can be useful in guiding your decisions
and considering what types of layouts are normalizing, but
you want your floor plan to take shape based on the way your
business and your staff uniquely behave in a post-COVID
world—which may vary f rom location to location.
Some of this will involve incremental adjustments as
you react to how your space is used, removing or adding
individual workstations or hoteling capacity based on the
utilization rates of specific rooms, floors and locations.
You may also have new goals driving your decisions. As you
play with the dials of remote work versus in-person work
and incorporate dynamic spaces, you may wind up needing
significantly less real estate. Depending on your lease cycles
and long-term goals, you may want to start preparing to
shrink your portfolio now, systematically scaling down the
percentage of employees that will be in the office.
