Presented by Japanese furniture brand Okamura, we discuss the new possibilities of office design with the co-founders of Takenouchi Webb and The Great Room
Due to social distancing restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic last year, working from home has since become the new normal for many companies. Between back-to-back Zoom conferences and juggling distractions courtesy of nosy family members and pets, many employees have since adapted to working within the comforts of our dwellings.
While we’ve managed to adjust fairly quickly to our new working environment, this then poses the question: how would future workplaces be designed to adapt to these changes? Four industry experts weighed in their opinions during the recent Tatler Homes Singapore panel discussion, as presented by Japanese furniture manufacturer Okamura.
Moderated by Tatler Homes Singapore managing editor Hong Xinying, the informative virtual talk was first broadcasted on Zoom. The participating panellists were: Jaelle Ang, co-founder of The Great Room; Shawn Eng, regional business development director (Asia Pacific) of Okamura Singapore; Naoko Takenouchi and Marc Webb, directors and co-founders of Takenouchi Webb.
Here, we take a look at some of the key takeaways from the panel discussion.
