Observations and predictions on the impact of the pandemic on commercial offices from Mark Grant of White & Partners, a real estate advisory firm based in Brisbane.
This is the first in a series of episodes focusing on emerging future trends in commercial real estate driven by the pandemic.
Our conversation with Mark includes discussion of a broad range of changing elements in office design, from human density in offices unwinding, to the importance of lighting and acoustics to facilitate all those Zoom calls, to the criticality of in-person interactions for creative endeavours.
