In our chat, we discuss:

Nitin's career in design/architecture and how became interested in meditation?

We talk about spaces and, in particular, what the key trends in aesthetic design for office spaces, commercial real estate right now? (given the fact that they need to be super appealing to bring people back to office!)

There is a lot of considerations for design and its impact on mental wellness. How does noise impact mental health?

Thermal comfort and lighting are other elements, so how can workplaces create sustainable workspaces that enhance mental health.

The big challenge for organisations right now is ensuring that office days are fit for collaboration, but are also highly productive! What are some important key elements from a design perspective?

We love this question: "Fast forward 10 years, what does the future of work look like?"
