Your Workplace is About to Perceive, Adapt and Evolve
How is artificial intelligence changing the way we experience the workplace? We’ve shared our thoughts in Indesign Live, exploring how AI is helping workplaces become more adaptive, supportive and connected. From spaces that respond to our needs, to new ways of working alongside technology, the future is about creating environments that put people first.
With the support of AI, are we ready to move away from the relatively static environments we deemed ‘future-proof’ and embrace the continual and natural evolution that AI offers? What if the workplace of the future doesn’t just support your work, but understands it, anticipates it and even evolves with it?
It’s not science fiction anymore, it’s the next frontier of workplace design. And for something as seemingly unnatural as AI, suddenly it feels like the natural progression of our hopes for a ‘future-proof’ workplace. At WORKTECH25 conferences across the globe, and recently in Melbourne, a new narrative has emerged. Workplace design has moved beyond space efficiency, productivity and flexibility. It’s about designing intelligent ecosystems – where architecture, data, psychology and culture collide to create environments that are alive, adaptive and deeply human-centric.
