In 1997, Francis Duffy published The New Office. The book explored new patterns of work in 4 #workspaces: hives, cells, dens, and clubs. It accommodated new technology, and merged office with home. 25 years later, this has been embraced in the post-pandemic work landscape.

@Harbinderbirdi @RIBA @Hawkins_Brown Amazing achievement…like sending a needle through the voids in a haystack!! Congratulations to the design team!

Hey mid mid lovers - got these beauties this weekend and if you swoon at the sight of a nice 1950s handrail or window - please steady yourself for whats to come ! Many of which no longer exist 🥲

@nlamontagne Agreed. The “forms” do not appear to conform to the 80’ separation requirement. But they are successful in creating misinformed outrage.

Amazing transformation. Until recently Alfred Place, just off Tottenham Court Road, was a two-way street and parking lot and now it’s a park @LDADesign @CamdenCouncil #westendproject @DSDHA
