How We Got Here

Our process in developing the strategy to get your office back on track — safely.

Getting All the Facts

We made sure that our solutions were backed by the most current scientific research on the nature of the virus.

Internal Survey

Our strategy and approached is fueled by our very own team — their concerns, questions and values in regards to transitioning back to the workplace.

Risk Assessment

We had to ask the difficult questions — is this even possible? Do the risks outweigh the benefits?

Refining the Strategy

We decided a gradual, phased approach made the most sense given the ebb and flow of the COVID-19 curve.

Methods of Physical Intervention

Extra care was invested in researching the most effective methods of separation, materials, furniture and planning strategies to maximize occupant safety.

Prescriptive Path

Our solutions are not final and they are not for every workplace — they are a stepping stone to transitioning back to normalcy, while mitigating the spread of the virus.

“It is not certain that everything is uncertain.” — Blaise Pascal

Actions You Can Take

Every workplace is different and will face its own challenges during the pandemic. Your office has a unique layout, staffing density, accessibility needs, team dynamic — all of which are unified under your own brand philosophy and values. We can’t prescribe a one-size-fits-all solution to our clients, because your business is not a prefabricated product with predictable needs.
