Even though machines and artificial intelligence are taking on an increasing number of tasks, people remain the central players in the world of work. For knowledge workers in particular, the workplace of the future will need to be not only functional but also meaningful, inspiring, and livable.

This book addresses the question of how such work environments must be designed so that people can develop their potential and take responsibility for companies—and for our planet.The authors outline their vision of a new office: a place that no longer just demands performance, but also conveys meaning and fosters community. In a changing world, they advocate for offices inspired by nature—not only in their aesthetics, but also in their essence: lively, diverse, and creative.

Numerous conversations with leading minds in new work architecture, in-depth analyses, and international best-practice examples show how the gap between life and work can be closed—and how office architecture can contribute to shaping a sustainable, people-centered work culture: A declaration of love for the office—and for nature, which may be able to save it.
