Designing the workplace to support wellbeing is a recent focus of organizational behavior models and architectural practice. However, the intensification of work that comes with digital transformation means people will need new ways to maintain not only their physical wellbeing, but also to do their best thinking and feel an emotional connection to their work. Green walls to filter air, sleep pods and sensors to count employee\u2019s stair steps are already a reality in some workplaces.<\/p>\n

As businesses plan for a more mobile workforce and increasingly rapid cycles of change, dedicated floors and wings for \u201cresident employees\u201d will give way to elastic concepts that invite change. Furniture will be light, mobile and modular. A diversity of bespoke products and materials\u2014shade lamps, handsomely upholstered sofas, stools, hardwood tables\u2014will make the workplace feel more like home. Your desk, if you choose one, will move according to the needs of a project cycle or team assignment. To assist with creative thinking, it may recline into recumbent positions associated with deep thought. To help your body get the exercise it needs to produce endorphins and burn cortisol, it may have pedals like a stationary bicycle. You\u2019ll see bright graphic murals and living walls of moss and succulents. Your back will feel better because you\u2019ll be standing, sitting, perching or moving for the better part of the day. You\u2019ll get more work done and feel better.<\/p>\n
