The article titled “The return of the cubicle: Why office design is set to change for Gen Z and Boomers” by London Business School professor Lynda Gratton, explores the evolving trends in office design to suit the needs of two disparate generations – Generation Z and Baby Boomers. Gratton notes that the open-plan office, once touted as the epitome of collaboration, is facing criticism from these generations who value privacy and focus. As a result, companies are reintroducing cubicles as a compromise that addresses the needs of both groups. By 2024, Gratton predicts that office designs will adapt further to accommodate the unique preferences and working styles of these generations, acknowledging the importance of an environment that promotes productivity and well-being.
