Kokata, Jul 24 (UNI) Godrej Interio, India’s leading furniture solutions brand today collaborated
with Design Dekko, the Godrej Group’s owned media platform for architecture and design professionals, to launch a series of webinars titled ‘Re-Imagine Workspace’.
The inaugural session was held today in the presence of over 400 registered attendees.

and the plausible solutions to re-imagine workspaces in the post-COVID-19 world.

Senior Design Principal, Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects. Rafael, in his keynote address,
highlighted various short approaches and long-term solutions to how office spaces must
be re-imagined the post the pandemic.

from multiple vantage points including design, materials, execution, people, culture and
management as we prepare for the New Normal.
Commenting on the initiative, Sameer Joshi, Head – Associate Vice President, Marketing
(B2B), Godrej Interio, said, “Today’s offices are designed to bring people closer, foster
collaboration, teamwork and increase the speed of response. They are not designed to
separate people and thereby prevent the spread of the disease. In the past, when we
designed offices, we always looked at how do we enhance people productivity? How do
we generate maximum returns from costly real estate for our clients? Post COVID-19
outbreak, while designing workspaces, we are now required to work with a new set of
boundary conditions, those recommended by doctors and medics. Godrej Interio,
therefore, strongly believes that existing offices need a rethink. This webinar series is
a step to provide multiple perspectives from leading experts which would serve as a
guide when designing workspaces in the future.”
Commenting on the webinar series, Sujit Patil, VP & Head of Corporate Brand &
Communications, Godrej Group said, “Godrej Group has always been at the vanguard
of creating platforms that foster engagement and collaboration. Design Dekko is a
community for professionals from architecture, interior design and allied sectors to
showcase their work, ideate with their colleagues and collaborate with their peers.
The Re-Imagine Workspace webinar series is one such step towards leading
conversation as a thought-leader, explore challenges, and reach a consensus on
plausible solutions to re-imagine workspaces in the post-COVID-19 world.”
