Motionspot’s inclusive approach to office design creates world-leading workspaces that support all staff, customers and visitors, regardless of disability, age, ethnicity, religion, gender, or sexuality.
Accessibility makes business sense
Accessible, inclusive and diverse workplaces create stronger and more successful businesses. They help attract and retain the best talent and stimulate innovation and creativity.
When establishing a new office, or updating an existing one, businesses need to be sure it is fully compliant with building access regulations and equality legislation. We support businesses to fulfil obligations in a way that improves the experience of the space for all staff and visitors.
Inclusive design
As more organizations encourage a return to office-based work, modern workplaces must be designed to meet the diverse needs of all employees. Creating welcoming, inclusive environments supports productivity, retention, and recruitment. In particular, designing with neurodivergent individuals in mind including those with ADHD, Autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia, and mental health conditions, ensures that office spaces are accessible and supportive for everyone.
We can work with you and your design team to review plans and make recommendations to layouts, products and finishes that are considerate of all physical, sensory and cognitive impairments, including designing for neurodiversity.
Modern office design is a rapidly evolving field. Whether you are creating multi-faith rooms, gender-inclusive washrooms, sensory recalibration spaces, or Changing Places, we are experts on the latest global access and inclusion best practice.
Incorporating principles of inclusive design is a highly effective way to futureproof businesses, stay ahead of fast-paced developments and create more welcoming, productive environments for everyone.
Our inclusive design audits are a great way to involve staff in the process and for them to become inclusive design champions in your business.
“We’re building our new campus from the ground up so it’s a great opportunity for us to think differently about inclusive design from the start. It has been a delight to work with a business partner that shares the same values of inclusivity as Barclays. Being involved in the early stages of the renovation opened exciting opportunities to push the boundaries of what was possible”
