We check emails and work at all hours of the day, have telehealth visits with doctors and attend virtual parent/teacher conferences.
Workers are asking questions of their built environment and demanding more from them in terms of use, comfort and privacy. We will explore all these opportunities with you and guide you through a thoughtful design process that creates supportive and inspiring spaces.
