Here are the 5 most common types of office layouts:
1. The private office, which is a single person office.
2. The shared room office, a room or cubicle shared by 2-3 people.
3. The open plan office, This means employees share a common workspace without partition walls or barriers. Often this takes the form of rows of work benches known as “benching”
4. The flex office, which is defined by a lack of personally assigned workstations. This is often referred to as hotelling and is the most flexible office type. Employees can work from any available station or work from home.
5. Combi office, which is defined by teamwork and the sharing of common facilities. In the combi-office, you have your own personal workstation but you often work and collaborate elsewhere.

High quality office design accomplishes 3 things;

1. It gives employees a sense of privacy and control while allowing for enough transparency to keep honest employees honest and on task.
2. It reminds them every day when they come into work that they work for a company that cares about what they do, and takes their shared mission seriously.
