Newminimalists comply with local laws.
I have spent my whole life cocooned in the world of thought and the presumption that why what you think dictates how you will live your life [for example Newminimalism].
The great successes I have chalked up during my life have always come because I have been able to change the way individuals and group think. So it comes as a massive shock to me that the greatest change in my lifetime could prove to be about the physical dimensions of human life on Earth [see photo]. Thus I suspect that the flow-on impact of social distancing and masks will last for decades. Organisations are about to be reconstructed.
The new 2021 organisation will have spatial prerequisites we have not seen before. The spatial layout of workstations will likely be clusters not rows. Spatial clusters will come with altered rules of work etiquette. This will bring new compliance measures. In turn, these work clusters will reshape sentience boundaries. Trust will become a feature of spatial design as everyone seeks to ensure that high levels of cleanliness prevail. When groups assemble the social ties will be weaker than they were in 2019 due to spatial distancing. And so on.....
The big change is that training courses will shift from sessions that seek to inculcate new attitudes [diversity and inclusion] to compliance tests on mask apparel and social distancing.
Thus the organisational culture [habits] will be expressed in spatial design and those new compliance measures that come with it. When a space is no longer assigned to an individual the whole nature of the workplace is different. When the space is no longer designed to facilitate "group hugs" the workplace is different. When the space that an individual uses at work is on loan to him or her the workplace is different. And so on....
