Adapting Spaces For Remote Work

Adapting Spaces For Remote Work – Over the past year, office workers have been part of a global work-at-home (WFH) trial. COVID-19 restrictions have created the need for a virtual office, with employers and employees setting up shop from their kitchen tables.

The surprising result was how well it worked. Suddenly, the changes made by the politicians seemed more “possible” than “imprisonment”. In May, Twitter announced that 5,000+ employees will be able to work from home permanently.

Adapting Spaces For Remote Work

The pandemic is far from over and continues to affect regions in many ways; some go back once they get out of lockdowns. For some, reality is returning to a new “normal,” while for others, the health crisis deepens. With more and more injections on the horizon, virtual rooms around the world are asking the question: Are we going back to the office?

Renovation Reflections: Reimagining Your Space

Renovation Reflections: Reimagining Your Space –  at ISTE 2015 this summer in Philadelphia.  I love reading and studying space design theory.  I truly feel that innovative learning environments can transform the way our students learn.  This book is a great introduction to active learning spaces and the strategies we can use to design and redesign learning spaces, from hacking our furniture to working with architects on new construction.

“Even teachers who embrace active learning pedagogies and who know how to integrate technology into the curriculum are shackled by ineffective learning environments: classrooms that do not support communication and collaboration; chairs that are too large and heavy for students to move; tables and desks that make group work, mentoring, information sharing and content creation difficult.” ~Sean Corcorran, General Manager, Learning Environments and Personalized Learning at Steelcase Education

How To Make Strappy Heels More Comfortable

How To Make Strappy Heels More Comfortable – When we decide to wear shoes (and trust me, there are times when I think that shoes are the right shoes for work), we are asked to do a list of skills that few of us have much practice with. Shoes are hard. It’s not easy. It doesn’t change. Also, it is possible to look good while wearing it. Today I want to share some tips I’ve learned to make walking a little easier.

I think it’s good to have pictures of what it looks like going smoothly. Walking properly in heels should be like normal walking, that is, no one should be able to tell by the way you walk that you are wearing shoes. No hunting. No fun. There is no going wrong. To see the magic in action, find a pro and check it out. Some of my favorite … Read the rest

Implementing Energy-efficient Window Treatments

Implementing Energy-efficient Window Treatments – Absolutely not. But this depends entirely on the type of room or rooms involved. Often, matching adjacent windows on the same wall ensures that the room looks pulled together and cohesive. But that doesn’t mean that every single shade or shade has to be the same.

In fact, when you look at spaces designed by professional interior designers, windows are more often than not repeated throughout the house—even in open-concept homes. To get that designer look, you should match your windows carefully.

Implementing Energy-efficient Window Treatments

Yes, you can, but you should keep in mind that if the windows are next to each other on the same wall, it is better to connect them and choose a different window treatment for windows on adjacent walls or separated in some way.
