Abstract:The future of workspace is significantly shaped by the advancements in technologies, changes in work patterns and workers’ desire for an improved well-being. Co-working space is an alternative workspace solution, for cost-effectiveness, the opportunity for diverse and flexible design and multi-use. This study examined the human-centric design choices using spatial and temporal variation of occupancy levels and user behaviour in a flexible co-working space in London. Through a machine-learning-driven analysis, … Show more
“…This study investigates the environmental comfort and seat preferences in a co-working space in London. It reveals the influence of environmental factors on seat preference and subsequent seat selection behaviours based on the subjective perceptions, as a further extension from the previous investigations of occupancy level (Pan, Cho and Bardhan, 2022;Pan et al, 2023). The findings can have a contribution to the understanding of occupants' perception, adaptive comfort and demand in the flexible hotdesking coworking setup, thus contributing the future design of workspaces, especially from the perspective of environmental design and space planning.…”
