As the traditional office undergoes a radical transformation, UK businesses are increasingly taking cues from the hospitality sector to reimagine their workplaces. From curated lounge areas and on-site wellness centres to concierge-style services and artisanal cafés, a new wave of design thinking—coined 'workplace hospitality'—is reshaping the employee experience.
As part of this year’s Workspace Design Show (26 - 27 February 2025) there will once again be a wealth of sensory-rich installations, sustainable concepts, and cutting-edge collaborations with leading architecture and design practices.
Now a firm fixture on the design event calendar, Workspace Design Show is delighted to reveal the first raft of names who will make up its speaker programme for the upcoming edition in February 2025.
A kaleidoscope of activities is happening at Workspace Design Show, the UK's most essential workplace design event, from Wednesday 26 to Thursday, 27 February 2025, at the Business Design Centre in London. This edition will have an inspiring lineup of features, installations and experiences, all united under the "Activate the Senses" theme.
Workspace Design Show, in partnership with Workplace Insight, IN Magazine, and Works Magazine, is proud to present the Workplace Insights 2025: Trends, Technology, and Tomorrow survey.
Workspace Design Show (26 – 27 February 2025, BDC, London) is proud to announce the launch of the “Workspace Wellbeing Hero” initiative, recognising and celebrating exceptional individuals in the workspace design industry who go above and beyond to support the wellbeing of others through acts of kindness and resilience in their work environments. This initiative shines a spotlight on those who make a tangible difference in workplace culture through selflessness, compassion, and perseverance.
How does our role as workplace designers transcend merely creating visually appealing and functional offices to encompass the creation of environments that promote health, sustainability, and social responsibility?
USM modular furniture not only exemplifies high standards of craftsmanship and versatility but has also set a benchmark for sustainable practices within the industry since the 1960’s. Celebrated for its timeless design and adaptability, the innovative modular concept allows for endless reconfigurations, ensuring that furniture pieces can evolve with the changing needs of spaces and their users. This inherent flexibility significantly extends the life cycle of each piece, reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimising waste.
There has been a great deal of discussion and debate in the workplace community about hybrid working – what is it and how should people/organisations do it or not do it, etc.
Workspace Design Show continues to innovate, expanding its diverse portfolio of exhibitors for the London and Amsterdam 2025 shows, and will feature Umbrella Furniture as the lead partner for the talks areas at the 2025 London edition, designed by Gensler and Ryder Architecture.
