Hybrid Work Models Reshape Office Real Estate Plans

The shift to hybrid work has moved priorities from occupancy to experience. Offices now emphasize meeting rooms, quiet zones, and team hubs over individual workstations. This change reflects a recognition that physical presence should enable connection and creativity—not just fulfill a quota.
