The Brain on Space: Designing for Human Chemistry at Work

Humans may think of themselves as modern, technologically advanced, and future focused. Yet our brains remain wired for survival in environments vastly different from today’s workplaces.

They are still tuned to natural landscapes, social bonds, and wide-open spaces, not the glass towers, virtual meetings, and shared desks of the present. This matters deeply when we design places where people are meant to thrive, connect, and create.

Identifying Target Tenants in Sydney’s Commercial Real Estate Market

Identifying the right tenants and tailoring spaces to their needs is critical for successfully leasing speculative suites. Recent data shows that Sydney speculative suites primarily attract tenants from the financial services, technology, and professional services sectors, with each sector accounting for around 25% of leased suites from 2022 to 2024 (Sheldon Interiors). This pattern aligns with a larger trend where companies are increasingly opting for pre-fitted spaces over traditional warm or cold shells, reducing the time and hassle of a full fit-out.
