After the COVID-19 Pandemic, more and more companies and corporations are realising that they need a new workspace that is more efficient in two respects. Firstly: a technical setting that can accommodate a hybrid working model between working in the office & working remotely. Secondly: the physical office space itself also requires restructure & improvements to rejuvenate new vitality and to inspire employees for better creativity and work performance.
Synthesising from ELLE Deco Network’s Trend Report 2022, alongside conversations with studios specialising in office design, ELLE Decoration Vietnam will attempt to create a quick sketch of an ideal office model for the Vietnamese creative minds.
Designer Dương Nguyễn holds Master’s degrees in Visual Design at the Scuola Politecnica di Design (SPD) (Milan, Italy), and in Design Management at the Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) (US). Thùy Dương has worked as Editor of ELLE Decoration Vietnam magazine since 2017, and prior to this she was ELLE magazine’s Art Director. She is also currently a lecturer at the HCMC University of Architecture, and a visiting lecturer at RMIT University.
