Workspace planning
Strategic workspace planning translates organisational goals into spatial requirements. We help you determine how much space you need, how it should be allocated, and what it will cost before you commit to a lease or renovation.
Feasibility studies for new leases and renewals
Before signing a lease or renewing an existing one, our feasibility study evaluates whether a candidate floor plate can accommodate your headcount, meeting demand, and storage requirements. We produce annotated test-fit drawings and a space programme document that forms the basis for landlord negotiations.
Feasibility studies for spaces up to 1'000 m² are priced from CHF 4'800, delivered within three weeks of site survey.
From CHF 4'800Space programming and departmental allocation
Space programming quantifies the area each function requires based on headcount, equipment, and adjacency preferences. We model multiple allocation scenarios — consolidated, distributed, or hybrid — and present comparative cost and efficiency metrics in CHF per workstation.
Programming exercises typically involve workshops with department leads and facilities teams, with outputs formatted for board-level review and internal communication.
Scenario modelling for growth and consolidation
Organisations rarely occupy static headcounts. We build planning models that project space needs over three-, five-, and ten-year horizons, accounting for hiring plans, remote work policies, and potential mergers or divestitures.
Each scenario includes revised desk ratios, meeting room counts, and estimated fit-out costs, allowing leadership teams to make informed real estate decisions.
Workplace strategy aligned with corporate culture
Space planning without cultural context produces offices that look correct on paper but fail in practice. We conduct structured interviews and observation sessions to understand how teams collaborate, concentrate, and socialise.
Our workplace strategy reports connect spatial recommendations to HR policies, IT infrastructure, and change management timelines, ensuring that the physical environment supports rather than disrupts organisational change.
Benchmarking against Swiss market standards
We maintain a proprietary database of workspace metrics from completed projects across Switzerland, covering desk sizes, meeting room ratios, storage allocation, and cost per square metre. Clients receive anonymised benchmark comparisons relevant to their sector and region.
Benchmark reports are available as standalone deliverables from CHF 2'100, or included within full planning engagements at no additional charge.
