Densification of an existing office space
When a company is literally bursting at the seams, additional office space is considered and, of course, facility management first has to check whether existing space is being used optimally. In this phase we were brought in as consultants. It quickly became clear that the office space, which had previously been parceled out in small pieces, still had a lot of additional potential. While 30 workstations were previously housed in cubicle offices, the new open space planning made it possible to create 40 workstations. The project was rolled out across all office space in the factory and a density of over 25% was forecast.
Show the flag with transparent offices for senior employees
The customer comes from classic cubicle offices. The employees were used to living in their “own” refuge. A significant rethinking process had to be initiated here. Ultimately, reason prevailed. The advantages of the open office with its fast communication and short distances were convincing. Openness is consequently also exemplified by senior employees. Glass walls create the necessary discretion and are therefore arguable. You also receive transparency and thus the role model function.
