Take it Outside: Well-designed Outdoor Spaces Boost Wellbeing, Performance

Summer is in full-swing and our thoughts are naturally drawn outside. Not just to relax or play, but to work. You might not realize it but outdoor spaces at work aren't just a nice perk, they're often an overlooked performance booster. A few minutes outside can reset attention, lower stress and give people greater clarity and energy. When organizations design outdoor areas that are comfortable and hard-working, they give people choices that support better thinking, better interactions and better work.

Why the Best Design Starts with Empathy

SEASON 9 / EPISODE 1

Design can unintentionally create friction – or even harm – when it’s built from a narrow set of perspectives and lived experiences. In this conversation, Omari Souza shares striking examples of how designed objects or spaces fail people in ways most of us never see. He offers frameworks and ideas to help us use empathy and curiosity to create products, experiences and spaces that foster inclusivity, belonging and equity for all.
