Post pandemic, how will work and lifestyle patterns change? There is a lot of talk and speculation about the impacts on the workplace, how we will work in the future, whether the traditional office is outdated / defunct, whether there will be growth in suburban locations and in turn, what impacts this shift will have on real estate demand and of course city economies. There is also belief that the design and equally the choice of location of homes will be impacted. It is a ‘well reported’ belief that the need to spend less time in the office, will drive a shift to people choosing to move from urban to suburban locations! A number of major employers have committed to flexible working arrangements going forward, but to what extent this is likely to be the norm? What other factors will influence the way we live our lives? What and where is the evidence?
