Terracotta, rich reds, warm wood, soft neutrals, and tactile fabrics come together in this month's material palette.

Design talk by day, Aperol by night. 🍊

We had a great time hosting B+H Architects at the Haworth Toronto showroom for an Italian-inspired evening filled with good conversation, delicious food, and plenty of Aperol Spritz.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make it such a memorable evening. We always enjoy bringing the design community together. 🤗

What makes a great workplace? It's more than just desks and meeting rooms. The latest research shows that thoughtful workplace design can have a real impact on how people work and feel.

Here are a few interesting findings:
📈 71% of employees say workplace quality influences their decision to stay with an organization.
🎯 48% of the workday is spent on focused, individual work.
🔇 Workplace distractions can reduce performance by up to 23%.
🏢 Employees with assigned workspaces report higher levels of support, productivity, and belonging.
✨ Workplaces that offer a greater variety of spaces score significantly higher for employee experience.

🏢 Is your workplace strategy *actually* future-ready?

Global uncertainty isn't a short-term disruption anymore — it's the new normal. Yet many workplace portfolios are still being planned like it's 2015. Here are 5 questions worth asking, straight from the latest research on workplace delivery:

1. Designing for today's headcount, or planning for change? Locking into a "flexible" layout that's actually rigid comes with a costly premium down the line. The best spaces evolve with your people and your brand.

2. Procurement: local transaction, or portfolio-wide strategy? By the time procurement gets involved project-by-project, the big cost decisions are already made. Aligning sourcing across your whole portfolio protects both budget and quality.

3. Using technology with purpose, or chasing the hype? More tools isn't the goal, the right tools are. Real-time cost modeling and predictive data remove friction from decisions, instead of adding more noise.

4. Reacting to challenges, or embracing uncertainty? Relying on old benchmarks means you're always playing catch-up. Live data and predictive insight help you spot supply and cost issues before they hit.

5. A place to work, or an experience? When budgets tighten, experience is often the first thing quietly cut. But a workspace that supports culture and performance isn't a nice-to-have — it's the point.
Future-ready doesn't mean predicting everything. It means building adaptable, connected workspaces.

That's where we come in — helping you design spaces that grow and change with your business.
