The Science of People and Office Design: Planning for Thinking, Discussing and Achieving has been written for practitioners who would like to apply evidence-based and human-centric design principles to office and workplace design. Practitioner-researcher disconnects often arise due to a lack of meaningful connection between their professional worlds. This book seeks to rectify this disconnect and make it clear that research can significantly affect the likelihood that design projects achieve the objectives outlined in their briefs, and that practitioners need to have a real influence on research conducted.

The book consists of 16 chapters grouped into three major sections with an overview chapter and a conclusion drawn together by the editors. Each chapter addresses a real-world workplace design-related issue. The first part of each chapter presents a description of the problem in practice and the objectives that must be achieved via design solutions. The second portion of each chapter presents peer-reviewed research related to the chapter's topic, written by a researcher focused on practical issues. The final part of each chapter is written by a workplace design practitioner and details their efforts to resolve the section's real world workplace design-related concern by applying relevant peer-reviewed research.

The book is aimed at professionals working in business, interior design, architecture, surveying, facilities management, building services engineering, human resources and psychology who are key stakeholders in the design and delivery of modern office spaces. Postgraduates studying design, architecture, engineering, facilities management, environmental psychology and wellbeing will also find the book useful.
