Itโs not just a buzzword. Itโs the foundation for creating workspaces that are anything but generic.

Simply put, it empowers employees to choose the environment that best suits their task or work style. I like to call it an 'On-Demand Workspace.' ๐ฏ
In todayโs dynamic work environment, diversity in space is vital. Picture cosy nooks for brainstorming, private booths for focused calls, and open areas for collaboration. It's a tool to help craft a hybrid workplace strategy for your people.

Rows of identical desks stifle creativity and engagement. For me, thatโs workspace hell. ๐
Many office providers follow a simple model: calculating the number of desks needed based on the number of employees. This often dictates the total office size, factoring in 'breakout' spaces and meeting rooms.
Sure, it makes the capex easier to justify and helps build scalable financial models for flex operatorsโlike, if I have 10 desks and charge ยฃ10 per desk, thatโs ยฃ100 in desk revenue. Simple, right?

But what happens when those employees no longer need desks to be productive? Or when they don't want to come to the office? This is where the problem arises.
Fortunately, the pandemic has been a wake-up call. More real estate professionals and executives now realise that an office filled with sterile laminate desks isnโt just dull; itโs a missed opportunity and a financial drain.

Applying the principles of ABW to your environment doesnโt just make people comfortable; it drives utilisation and boosts productivity, creativity, and satisfaction.
ABW is not just about space; itโs about shaping experiences. ๐
