The Covid 19 epidemic has changed the way many businesses and individuals work. The form of working at home - Work From home has proven its efficiency and utility. Also from here, the designers of office furniture and businesses themselves need to change their minds to ensure the operation and meet the needs of workers.
During a pandemic, teleworking becomes a must. After a long period of implementation, this form has shown the effects and benefits that it brings to businesses and employees working there. And the combined working model - working from a distance in the office has become a popular model in the post-pandemic period. Even now, the disease may come back at any time, companies and workers themselves need to be prepared to ensure normal business operations and reduce office running costs.

However, after the pandemic, people needed to move from "my workplace" to "our workplace".

Today's office construction focuses on a variety of locking workspaces. This is intended to show respect for different work styles and needs, providing employees with a choice of dynamic spaces and quiet areas for everyone to be the most productive and happy. most when they are in the office. We are likely to see more of this in the years to come, as the youngest generation of workers come to the office with well-formed strategies and ideas to help them become effective and engaged employees.
Fully equipped with technical equipment and space utilities for working remotely
Ideally, switch between working in the office and working from anywhere seamlessly. In the office, unbound technology allows employees to switch between environments for different types of jobs. And when it's time to work remotely, they can grab their laptops and phones and be productive. Of course, this requires more robust technology infrastructure such as large meeting rooms with projectors, software platforms that allow meeting and controlling online work.
