Exploring Break Out Trends panel discussion

Well done to Davenport Campbell’s Future of Work champions, Kirsty Argyle (Managing Director) and Sean Willcock (Director), who were invited by Colliers to share insights as part of a ‘Exploring Break Out Trends’ panel discussion at the 2025 National Conference on 3rd April.

We’re thankful for this opportunity and for the continued discussion around how we can create dynamic environments that anticipate and adapt to future needs.

Sean Willcock, Director at Davenport Campbell, said:

“We were thrilled to be invited to speak at the Colliers Occupier Services 2025 Offsite. We enjoyed sharing ideas on “Exploring Break Out Trends” and connecting with industry leaders shaping the future of workspaces. Thanks to Colliers for having us, and we’re looking forward to more innovation together in the future.”

The discussions explored several timely and critical themes that are shaping workplace transformation, including:

• Breakout Space Evolution – Reimagining informal zones as essential tools for collaboration, creativity and employee wellbeing.

• Workplace Flexibility & Transformation – Responding to the ongoing shift in how and where people work, and what that means for physical space.

• User-Centric Design – Creating environments driven by the needs and expectations of diverse employee groups.

• Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration – How partnerships across design, strategy, and delivery are unlocking new value for clients.

• Sustainability and Innovation – Embedding environmental and technological considerations at the heart of workplace strategy.

As advocates for future-ready design, we’re proud to be part of the conversation and committed to continuing the dialogue with our clients and industry peers.
