In recent years, open-plan office spaces became a trend that businesses were quickly jumping on. Many large corporations redid their office design just to accommodate the newly desired open work spaces, but studies show that open work spaces actually reduce productivity and lower employee morale.

In recent years, open-plan office spaces became a trend that businesses were quickly jumping on. Many large corporations redid their office design just to accommodate the newly desired open work spaces. I experienced this first hand when a corporation I was working for introduced their plans to overhaul our office into an open concept. I knew immediately that it wasn’t a good idea and would not work well.

Rather than increasing face-to-face conversations and promoting collaboration, open spaces appear to trigger a natural human response to socially withdraw from team members – the exact opposite result the architectural changes were supposed to produce. “With or without improved workplace design, increasing in-person interaction by inspiring movement throughout the workplace is key.

1 in 3 workers feel distractions and noise from open work spaces hinder their productivity, while 1 in 6 say it hinders creativity as well.in the U.S. feel that their company’s office layout has pushed them to consider leaving their job and feel resentful towards more senior staff with private offices.
