What are the key factors to consider in designing the workplace?

Asked a year ago

Hello everyone! I'm just starting my business and I'm trying to design the workplace and my offices to be functional, efficient, and attractive to employees. I want to make sure that I consider all of the key factors in the design process, but I'm not sure where to start. Can anyone provide any guidance? Particularly if there are tools I can use to make the process easier. Thanks.

The best workplace designs consider the following:
Navigation
Wayfinding lets employees find each other and their desks quickly. Make wayfinding more interesting by incorporating company values and branding into the design.
Lighting
Natural lighting can boost mood and productivity by 15%. Also, allowing workers to regulate the lighting in their work areas can improve comfort and productivity.
Privacy
Alloting quiet spaces will allow employees to work without distractions.
The POC office management system provides a birds-eye perspective of the entire office. Its value is in drawing plans, allocating areas, simulating scenarios, and managing space inventory.
