   Returning to the office isn't just about productivity. Research shows that open-plan offices can increase stress levels and hinder creativity. Different work states require different environments. Beautiful and inspiring spaces can enhance mood, creativity, and trust. Let's focus on creating work environments that support our best work rather than forcing everyone into the same office. The future of work is about flexibility and designing spaces to match our needs.

     @carl My wife has been working with me at home for 30 years (all but 3 years of my time).

     She has TWO home offices.

     I wonder if she doesn't like my Deep Purple early in the morning.

     @carl I can't see people going back if they have the skils that companies need. Wrote about it here.

     @jimcarroll that sounds great! Must be the Deep Purple. Im Lucky to work in a laboratory of ideas, totally in line with the spirit of this article. I cant see myself in another kind of space ever again.
