Is There a Correlation Between Design and Productivity?

There’s something I’ve noticed over the years that I used to think was trivial: the way I feel when I walk into a well-designed space. Not a space that has a beautiful aesthetic, but a space that is intentional. My years working in both commercial and residential design exposed me to just how much our environment shapes us. That exposure opened me to a world of difference; how lighting, layout, material, and emotion all intersect.
