The post-pandemic era of work is coming into view.

Is your business ready for it?

Most employees have spent more than a year working at home, and along the way, they’ve been taking notes. First and foremost, they’ve been working in a space that they set up—and designed—to best fit the way they work. Additionally, they feel safe being at home, where they won’t be exposed to unnecessary health risks.

These considerations will influence the way offices look while employees return. And we’ve been taking notes, too.

A well-designed office is functional, adaptable and just feels good to visit and work in, for employees and visitors alike. Here’s a quick look at four design essentials the best offices get right.

The truth is that many offices simply aren’t ready for it. In this blog, we’ll offer a few tips (and accompanying products) that will get yours on the right track.
