The Future of the Workplace


Download audio (MP3)

Do you like where you work? Not the company, but the physical workspace. Open workspaces, lush corporate campuses and tons of perks are all the rage these days, but how much does design really influence productivity and employee satisfaction? Facebook just moved to new digs where employees can roam with laptops and meet on sofas. Whither the cubicle?

Host: Joshua Johnson

Guests:

  • Allison Arieff, design and architecture writer for The New York Times and editor of The Urbanist, the magazine of public policy think tank SPUR (San Francisco Planning and Urban Research)
  • Georgia Collins, North America managing director for DEGW
  • Jeremy Neuner, CEO of NextSpace
