Innovation Home Arabia - What does your office actually cost?

Space sizing

Traditional Office

Space is sized for peak demand — everyone needs a seat at the same time. You pay for square metres that stand empty most of the working day.

↕

Innovation Home

Your office is sized for those who are regularly present — the maximum number of workstations you need. When the whole team gathers, our shared spaces flex to accommodate — meeting rooms, lounges, phone booths and work zones provide extra space at no additional cost.
