Abstract

This graduation project explores the topic of flexible working as a new work norm for architects (and designers) and how FW needs to be translated into an office design. Through the analysis of two case studies, the current situation has been mapped out, which has been used to determine the requirements for an office programme that can facilitate flexible working. In order to allow flexible working, one must apply activity-based workplace design as a design method, in which one designs based on activities, rather than functions. The graduation project explains the translation of flexible working as the new work norm into a design proposal.
