HOK’s Rachel Rouse and Polly Dithmer will present on “Space Fusion: Blending Sectors to Create New Experiences” as part of the Workplace Evolutionaries track at IFMA World Workplace.
As the lines between work, life, learn and play continue to blur, design elements from previously siloed sectors have begun to merge. Hospitality, healthcare, retail and education sectors are influencing the corporate workplace and vice versa to create “space fusion.” This session will assess the forces impacting different space typologies today and how to apply best practices from various sectors to create new solutions.
