SUMMARY:Webinar: Interior Architecture Reconsidered (5-4-3) - The future of the workplace
DESCRIPTION:How has the pandemic impacted the interior design industry: where we were\, where we are and where we will be\nFollowing on from the last episode on the hospitality industry\, the next online panel in collaboration with Zaha Hadid Architects will explore the future of the workplace. Hosted by SBID’s founder & CEO\, Vanessa Brady\, the series intends will continue to examine the new definitions of interior space and the consequential impact on the people who commission\, design and use them. \nWith the two areas most affected by the pandemic being ‘work’ and ‘home’\, and as their traditionally segregated contexts were challenged while the demand for a hybrid work/live space evolved\, the guest speakers will address how their boundaries have blurred and what the future might hold for these fast-changing environments. \nSpeakers include: \n\n Arjun Kaicker\, Co-Head of Analytics & Insights at Zaha Hadid Architects\nJuergen Junker\, Head of A&D Development UK from Vitra\nBidisha Sinha\, Senior Associate at Zaha Hadid Architects\n\nEvent Details: \nTopic: Interior Architecture Reconsidered (5-4-3): The future of the workplace \nDate: Tuesday 14th September \nTime: 12.00pm (BST) \nDuration: 1 hour \nKey discussion points: \n\nHow has the pandemic affected the way we view\, design and use a living / working space?\nFor many industries what was missing during the pandemic\, apart from the physical divisions between work and home\, were the serendipitous encounters that contribute to the sociability and richness of the work environment. Can these encounters be designed and planned?\nHas the pandemic accelerated the natural evolution of the workplace? Were there already existing fault lines that it exploited and exacerbated?\nWith the hopeful return to pre-pandemic normality\, do you envisage ways of working returning to pre-pandemic status quo\, or is there a paradigm shift in how we approach work / live lifestyles?\n\nClick here to register now
