Agile Workplaces

Hybrid reality

Neighbourhood seating without fixed desks requires locker counts, clean-desk policy graphics, and IT patch panel capacity for floating users.

We model 0.6–0.8 desk ratio scenarios with sensitivity table when HR provides attendance survey.

Neighbourhood design

Team pods of 8–12 with shared storage and identifiable signage reduce territorial conflict. Phone booth count from concurrent call estimate not headcount alone.

Focus rooms acoustically rated minimum 35 dB reduction to open plan.

Technology

Power and data floor box locations coordinated with ICT vendor; we do not configure Wi-Fi.

Display mounting heights and camera sightlines for hybrid meeting rooms documented.

Change management

Workshop facilitation half-day CHF 2,400 optional; we remain planners not coaches unless requested.

Signage and wayfinding package CHF 1,800 for typical floor.

Case metric

Basel NGO reduced assigned desks 35% while maintaining satisfaction scores post-move via neighbourhood model Impercyclo designed.

Post-occupancy evaluation template included six months after move.

Pitfalls avoided

Hot-desking without adequate lockers; agile without quiet rooms; ratio cuts without manager buy-in — we document assumptions client signs.
