In an era of rising costs, leaner teams, and hybrid models, space efficiency has become essential, not optional. It’s no longer about leasing more square metres - it's about making every one of them work harder.
Smart space planning isn’t just about fitting people into a floorplate, it’s about shaping spaces that support productivity, wellbeing, and long-term business performance. Done well, it can:
Reduce fit-out and ongoing rental costs
Unlock better team performance and culture
Improve flexibility as your business needs change
That’s why we created a 2025 Space Efficiency Checklist; it's a practical guide to help you assess whether your current or future office space is truly working for you. Whether you’re planning a relocation, refurbishment, or speculative suite, this checklist helps you identify spatial gaps, opportunities, and hidden inefficiencies before the floorplan is locked in.
It’s the tool we use at PALM to help clients make smarter, faster property decisions — with fewer compromises down the track.
