Space Matrix to allow companies to test workspace design at its Gurgaon lab

Singapore headquartered Space Matrix, an global workplace design and build consulting firm, has come up with its first experiential facility in India for its clients and staff.

Called the [β]Lab, it will offer companies a real-time experience of possible workspace design solutions and alternatives to figure out the most appropriate solution for their future workplaces.

“This office is an eclectic workspace that can empower people to test design solutions, believe in them and then recommend it to the clients with conviction. It is an attempt to break through the workplace jargons and understand the impact of workplace design on employee morale, culture and eventually the business itself in a DIY fashion,” said Akshay Lakhanpal, CEO, India, Space Matrix.

Companies can test workspace design elements including furniture, chairs, wall finishes, flooring options, building services, shading options to experiment alongside with workplace technology and audio video solutions.

As employees start accessing their offices, organizations need to analyse which working styles and design ideas encourage collaboration, co-creation, stronger connection with colleagues and the organisation — aspects that were missing for the last one year while working from home.
