summary |
Contemporary knowledge working environments are rapidly evolving alongside the digital and virtual technologies used for knowledge work. Contemporary offices range from cellular offices with assigned desks to activity-based offices with shared-desk policies and location independent blended working. Furthermore, advanced technologies, such as intelligent and adaptive lighting, are being implemented in our everyday surroundings, including working environments. The changes require adaptation from both knowledge workers and architectural elements of the environments. We propose that knowledge work environments should be explored from user-centric point of view and we aim to elucidate how the physical design of the workplace enhances well-being, creativity and innovation of their users. The various parameters of knowledge work environments should be specified through architectural design process but also through ethnographic methods, which enable us to retrieve the parameters of knowledge work environments users deem important. Using both spatial design and functional design approach we will challenge the multidimensional problem field of designing collaborative knowledge work environments. |
