Outdoor spaces that were once considered a quick destination for fresh air are now becoming a functional extension of an office’s space, and it’s easy to see why.
The benefits of outdoor space are undeniable. In fact, a 2018 survey of indoor workers from L.L. Bean regarding their first-ever outdoor coworking space found that:
- 86% would like to spend more time outside during the workday
- 82% like or love the concept of an outdoor space
- 77% would be most likely to do creative work outdoors
