Description
The office is evolving. Despite predictions that it may be obsolete, the office is adapting to survive and thrive in a rapidly changing world. Digital technologies are transforming not only the work we do, but also the ways our workplaces are designed, built and operated. As automation and AI continue to shape the future of work, one constant remains: human interaction and collaboration. With four generations now working together in the same spaces, there is a growing need for workplace designs that balance technology with human focus. This book explores the latest technologies and innovations that are driving this new age, from voice and digital twins to cutting-edge materials like graphene. By taking an interdisciplinary approach, Nicola Gillen examines the impacts of these changes on the future of work and workplace, providing valuable insights for architects, designers, and anyone interested in shaping the next generation of offices.
