Start from a few numbers and get a ballpark estimate of the space. The precise number is then measured by the survey, on your teams' real working day.
From the people, the average attendance and the mix of focus and collaboration we derive an order of magnitude of the square metres — with the same coefficients as our sizing engine. It is a starting point, not the answer: it helps you grasp the scale, before you calculate the desk sharing ratio and measure the real profiles.
Make a quick indicative estimate
With your numbers, in a few seconds.
A ballpark estimate, with the same coefficients as our sizing engine (workstation 7.5 m², meeting rooms and informal spaces activity-based, +30% circulation, +18% efficiency, +30% building core), calibrated at ~16 m²/person at full use. For very small offices it adds a surcharge (up to +20 m², which cancels out at 20 people). The precise number depends on the real profiles of the teams: the survey measures it.
How the calculation works
From the people and the mix of activities we estimate how many people, at the peak, are in focus (desks, phone booths) and how many in collaboration (meeting rooms in three sizes, informal spaces). Each type has a capacity and a target usage: from there come the number of units and the square metres. On top of the net area we add circulation, space efficiency and building core.
It is deliberately entry-level: it gives an order of magnitude. There is no single number — it depends on the work profiles, which is why the estimate stays a range. The precise number is derived with the survey.
The precise number is measured by the survey
Our «new ways of working» survey captures in a few minutes how your teams really work: from there we derive the real space, no longer a ballpark one.
