Workplace Design
Design and architecture work on offices, workspaces, and the physical environments where people work, from fit-outs to adaptive reuse.
Workplace design concerns the planning, layout, and material choices of spaces used for professional work, including offices, studios, and civic workplaces. Designers in this field balance collaboration, focus, daylight, circulation, and the operational needs of the organisations that occupy the space. Adaptive reuse of historic buildings is a recurring concern, as is the commercial logic that shapes many fit-out decisions.Members on uni.xyz have published projects ranging from office interiors in Tokyo, Barcelona, and Stockholm to renovations of civic buildings and studies of public-facing offices. The submissions also address the business side of workplace design and the role of light, sustainability, and collaborative layouts in recent office projects.
