With hybrid work now the norm, today’s offices must offer more than desks and devices — they need to feel like destinations. Tom Wallace, Global Workplace Design Lead at Foundever, shares how thoughtful, human-centric spaces are key to engaging teams, building culture, and transforming the office into a true community hub.

What began as a vision to transform an underused inner garden evolved into a dynamic, multifunctional space designed for connection, creativity, and well-being — reflecting the evolving needs of today’s professionals who value flexibility, community, and authentic experiences.

Dynamic working requires dialogue and encounters – rooms that enable flexibility as well as intermediate spaces. Understanding the office as a space of potential and designing these exciting interfaces is not only important to us, but also to Beiersdorf, for whom we developed a global workplace strategy in close collaboration with company employees.

The trends we see in office design are not just aesthetic changes, but reflect shifts in work habits and societal values. The office of 2025? Smarter, more sustainable and more social. Offices that not only meet the needs of employees, but also benefit the environment and society. In this blog, we will delve deeper into these trends and discover how they will continue to shape the workplace of the future.
