Data-driven layouts that maximize ROI
Optimize your Singapore workspace with strategic office space planning that balances collaboration, focus, and flexibility. We analyze how your teams work to create layouts that reduce wasted space, support multiple work modes, and lower real estate costs without compromising employee experience.
Deliver evidence-based layout recommendations with cost comparisons, seating counts, and BCA compliance verification for confident Singapore real estate decisions.
Understanding your team structure, department adjacencies, and workflow requirements.
Organizational Analysis
Map team structures and collaboration patterns to inform adjacency strategies. Interview stakeholders to understand dynamics and cultural preferences for optimal productivity.
Headcount Planning
Project growth over 3-5 years to right-size allocations. Analyze hiring plans and trends to calculate requirements with buffer capacity avoiding costly relocations.
Workflow Study
Understand work flows through observational studies. Identify collaboration patterns informing departmental positioning to minimize circulation.
Producing layout options that show seating capacity and circulation.
Multiple Scenarios
Develop 2-3 layout options exploring open-plan versus neighborhoods and assigned versus hot-desking. Compare density with trade-off analysis.
Capacity Analysis
Calculate workstation counts, meeting room quantities, and phone booth allocations. Document capacity metrics including desk-to-person ratios.
Circulation Studies
Ensure adequate corridor widths (1.2m minimum) and minimize congestion. Analyze circulation efficiency while maintaining code-compliant movement.
Designing according to local accessibility and safety standards.
Universal Design
Apply BCA Accessibility guidelines for inclusive planning. Ensure accessible facilities, 850mm door widths, and barrier-free routes for all abilities.
Exit Routes
Plan egress paths meeting SCDF requirements with 45m maximum travel distances and unobstructed corridors. Coordinate with building fire safety plans.
Regulatory Coordination
Liaise with BCA for Change of Use or A&A approvals. Coordinate timelines, compile documentation, and track approval processes ensuring legal occupancy and schedule adherence.
Allowing flexibility for future team growth or reconfiguration.
Modular Systems
Specify demountable partitions and reconfigurable workstations accommodating changes without renovations. Standardized components reduce waste and cost.
Expansion Zones
Identify swing spaces convertible to workstations when headcount increases. Design infrastructure with surplus capacity supporting growth.
Technology Infrastructure
Plan power and data distribution with floor grids or cable trays supporting multiple configurations. Specify infrastructure exceeding current needs for easy future additions.
