Occupancy Study – Insight into workplace occupancy and use

How is your workplace really being used?

WHAT IS IT?
Occupancy Study

The Occupancy Study goes beyond counting. We don’t just measure presence; we show what it reveals about behaviour, collaboration and strategy. This uncovers which patterns support or hinder your organization – and which choices are needed to balance space, culture and performance.

WHAT WE DO
  • Multiple observation rounds per day, over several weeks
  • Recording occupancy, activities, technology use and “signs of life”
  • Fully anonymous, with no personal data collected
WHY IT MATTERS
  • Realistic picture of under- and overuse
  • Insights into dominant workstyles (individual, collaborative, recharge)
  • Clear view of which spaces work and which don’t
  • Linking data → behaviour → strategy for better decisions

Case example

At Atlassian Amsterdam, 69% of all activities observed were individual work – far higher than in other sites. Formal meeting rooms were often used by a single person, showing misalignment between design and actual use. These insights enabled targeted adjustments.

OUR APPROACH

  • Observations over multiple weeks
  • Analysis by workspace type and floor
  • Dashboards and heatmaps visualizing patterns
  • Recommendations linked to strategy and culture

What does it deliver?

Data-driven decisions on space and capacity
Stronger basis for real estate and design choices
Better balance between focus, collaboration and recharge
