Modular relations in work environments – Data-driven approaches to design their future

This contribution explores the evolutionary nature of workspaces in the context of techno-logical and social flexibility. The modular dimension of an office is analysed through a changein spatial solutions considering the influence that socio-cultural transformations have hadon management models and design choices. The analysis focuses on the effectiveness ofdata-driven approaches when used to explore work contexts: data are a useful tool to un-derstand the experiences and perceptions of employees when developing solutions to im-prove well-being in the workplace. This contribution aims to outline the transformation ofan office from a closed and individualistic module to an open and shared system in whichdata play a fundamental role in defining the future of workspaces.
