Design Criteria of Next Generation Offices

ABSTRACT The changing work culture and habits have made it necessary for offices to adapt. New generation offices have flexible spaces that allow employees to adapt to different working conditions. They also feature multi-purpose rooms that can be used for meetings, training sessions or social events. Elements such as ergonomic furniture, lighting, and ventilation support the health and well-being of employees. Modern technologies that enhance collaboration and facilitate communication are also incorporated into these new generation offices. Open-plan designs and shared spaces promote interaction among employees, while collaborative areas enhance creativity, teamwork, and team spirit. The design of new generation offices has undergone a significant transformation in line with changing work culture and practices. These offices are carefully planned to increase productivity, foster collaboration, and support employee well-being. Open-plan concepts are often employed to facilitate communication and interaction among departments and employees.
