Now that we have seen how focus and collaboration impact workplace design, it’s time learn how the next work mode leaves its mark. Our next work mode is just that, learning. Every day is an opportunity to learn something new, expand our way of thinking, and come up with that ah-ha moment that leads to innovation. Providing employees with the tools they need to further their knowledge benefits everyone. The foundation of every great learning environment is comfortable furniture that complements, not hinders, the learning process. After all, who of us hasn’t found it hard to pay attention while sitting in an uncomfortable chair?
