Our relationship with our work and how it is done is turning everything we think about office spaces on its head. Flexible and collaborative working, teleworking, mobile innovation, and desk sharing have a real impact on the physical spaces in which we work and achieve success. At the same time, office buildings are opening up to their outside surroundings—becoming greener to promote sustainability and employee’s well-being. Open economy, greater well-being, green living As the power of digital continues to transform the modern workplace, office spaces are becoming increasingly flexible and collaborative. The office is becoming a place of convergence and interaction, a friendly and social meeting place that is able to reinvent itself to remain vital. Buildings are becoming smarter, able to produce their own data, and to communicate and interact with their environment. Influenced by examples of the net economy and start-ups, employees are seeking new services to facilitate their work, daily lives and wellbeing. Office buildings are becoming more open to the outside, able to optimise the use of services by sharing them with other companies and even with the inhabitants of neighbouring buildings, often outside working hours. The “Reinvent Paris” project in the 17th arrondissment of Paris is one example of such integration. The project combines residential, commercial and office spaces in a multi-strata building with multiple green spaces and services for well-being. Finally, buildings are also becoming greener, with gardens, patios, green roofs, urban agriculture, green walls, etc. Offices are increasingly connected to alternative energy sources—including solar panels, biomass and geothermal—resulting in positive-energy buildings able to produce more power than they consume. The trend of green offices has led to projects like the Arboretum in Nanterre, France. The building structure is partly made of wood, with bio-sourced materials that produce energy for 75% of the building’s heat and air-conditioning.
