The future of the workplace
The report predicts decor will change to suit mood

A new report predicts that in the future work will come to us

A report predicting what the workplaces of 2030 will be like has said that in the future work will come to us, as technology will ensure that everything an employee needs is available no matter where they are. They also predict that head offices and individual desks are likely to disappear, and in their place will be shared spaces and décor that adapts to a worker’s mood.

Dr Marie Puybaraud, research director at Johnson Controls, a company that designs car and office interiors and sponsored the report says, ‘We now spend less time in a physical location and more time being on the move. By 2030 a fully integrated set of technologies will follow users wherever they are, the whole focus is on user empowerment’. The report said walls could become screens showing diaries, documents or video conferences, and even homes could measure mood and tune surroundings. ‘The whole idea is to have this sensory, seamless smart environment,’ says Dr Puybaraud. ‘You will turn up and this environment is ready to support you and the way you work.’
