The low-hanging fruit of a human-centric and sustainable workplace!
As we adapt to the new realities… of the hybrid workplace, a mix of in-office and remote work, Federal agencies may desire some renovation or new construction to accommodate the emerging needs of their returning staff. In addition to the amount and configuration of space, two key elements of space design which have a great impact on the quality of that workplace sometimes go overlooked: lighting and acoustics.
Well-conceived lighting and acoustic strategies are the low-hanging fruit ripe for the picking to support work going forward in the new, human-centric hybrid environment. If thoughtfully considered at the beginning of your project, lighting and acoustics considerations can be implemented to complement your mission and staff needs, your budget and your sustainability goals.
