Workspace Design for Diverse Personalities
Many different types of people make up the fabric of a workspace community – from freelancers to remote workers, entrepreneurs, and corporate employees. It’s estimated that up to 25% of the global population is neurodivergent. Unlike neurotypical people who thrive in open-plan spaces and often have no limit to their social skills, neurodivergent people can feel overwhelmed in busy and loud work environments.
What is a neurodivergent-friendly workspace?
A neurodivergent-friendly workspace accommodates the needs of the neurodiverse community. It may be a space with multiple workstations for different personalities, including semi-private quiet or focus areas away from the hustle and bustle of the main, open-plan workspace.
What’s working in your coworking space? How does your community support diverse personalities?
