Pearson embraced the notion that the future of the workplace needs to be highly adaptable and flexible; where colleagues can come together to collaborate and achieve their best work. After extensive consultation across the business, a single floor solution was adopted. This represented an 80% reduction in Pearson’s London office real estate. The floor provides over 700 workspaces, but with less than 80 of those being sit-stand desks, collaboration is at the heart of this flexible, furniture lead solution.
