Listening to the tenants

The first thing the tenant will be thinking about, is 'how can we make a seamless transition to working in the office as opposed to working at home?' Some key aspects to consider introducing would be:

• Community & outdoor spaces - Both indoor or outdoor community spaces encourage socialising and collaboration, and provides somewhere for tenants to meet clients in an informal area
• Health & wellbeing - a space for people to work out in is a major attraction. To go the extra mile or improve an existing gym, transform the space into something more like a health club with additional team sports areas
• End of trip facilities - The inclusion of areas such as cycle stores, showers and changing rooms serves to promote sustainable and inclusive practices
• Common conference rooms - As tenants seek to downsize, one of the first spaces to be cut is large conference rooms. Landlords could provide flexible rooms with adjustable partitions to suit differing needs
• Coworking spaces -  People aren't don't like being tethered to a desk at home, and letting people choose where they can work gives them a sense of autonomy by providing some communal soft seating or touch-down areas
• Alimentary options - Employees have been used to free reign over the snacks and drinks in their homes. Landlords can surpass this, by providing full snack bars, restaurants and a wider range beyond what's feasible for a working-from-home set up
