HR AND IT: A STRATEGIC DUO FOR THE COMPANY OF TOMORROW?

Will the roles of HR and IT continue to complement each other in companies? In 2022, both departments affirmed their complementary nature, but is this still the case? Is it possible to offer a comfortable working environment that is conducive to personal development in a company with increasingly limited budgets?

The HR and Work Environment functions now share the same goal: to create the conditions for lasting commitment and a successful employee experience. Between attractiveness, corporate culture, and quality of life at work, their fields of action are converging. The question is no longer whether they are complementary, but how they can work together to transform the company.

GENERATION ALPHA, WHAT DOES THE IDEAL OFFICE LOOK LIKE?

What will the ideal office of the younger generation look like?

Younger generations are redefining their relationship with work, presence, and community. Between the search for meaning, flexibility, and the desire for new experiences, their vision of the ideal office goes beyond a simple workspace to become a place for living, inspiration, and connection. This fresh perspective challenges companies to rethink their models and cultures.

WHAT MAKES A GOOD OFFICE LOCATION?

What makes a good office location? 

Based on a study published in November 2025, as well as other literature on the subject, we propose to identify the factors that make a location good for employees. The scale is therefore urban or even regional.

What are the benefits of art in offices? 

While many workspaces are considered bland and soulless, research has shown the benefits of art in spaces for the occupants.

Individual and collective interests in the office can converge: how can this be addressed through design?

The return to the office is mainly argued around the collective dimension of presence. But individual interests are overlooked, even though they are significant. How can the two be reconciled?

When layout contributes to meaning at work, what are the solutions?

The crisis of meaning at work is a ubiquitous topic in organizations. Space has a role to play, particularly in terms of consistency and alignment. But how does this happen?
