First Look! 👀 Small Design Changes, Big Impact: The Psychology of Workplace Design with Becky Turner
April 15, 2025
In today’s day and age, workplace design is about recognising the invisible, and bringing it to life. In the latest episode of Space by Stansons, host Guy Stanley sits down with Becky Turner, Workplace Psychologist at Claremont, for an all-new perspective on design. Backed by her expertise in organisational psychology, she unpacks the lesser-thought about aspects of workplace design - what it means to build a space that’s truly inclusive, creating a sense of belonging for neurodivergent communities in the workplace and all the little ways designers can make a big impact.
From desk orientations to return-to-work policies done right, this conversation highlights the importance of a community-first approach, relegating a one-size-fits-all approach to the history books.
