Interesting Twitter thread by Chris Herd about remote working:
I’ve spoken to 1,500+ people about remote work in the last 9 months
A few predictions of what is likely to emerge before 2030
I’ll believe it all as and when I see it. I will continue to believe that personal meet-ups still count for a lot, and get a lot of information communicated. Historically, this is why cities exist. Suburbs have long existed. I suspect Herd is describing a new sort of suburb, but not the end of the urb.
Clearly, a lot of people want to make this stuff work.
My architecture email feeds are telling me that new building in London, and most definitely new office building in London, has stopped dead. It’s all house conversions and trivia about would-be luxury shops.
Meanwhile, if the above quoted bits are anything to go by, the war against the full stop continues
Yuck. I started reading that thread but quit almost immediately because it sounds like 100% corporate bullshit. Might be because my experience with the corporate world permanently soured me on their crap. Probably made the wrong choice of a career path a long time ago.
