Take for example the open office: originally praised by designers and architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright, the open office plan was meant to remove\u00a0mental barriers placed on workers through physical separation.<\/p>\n<p>These open office plans have endured since their inception in the 90s and even grown in popularity, partially due to their cost-effective use of space. Despite employer fervor, there is a growing scholarship pointing out the design\u2019s flaws: <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2017\/10\/why-you-can-focus-in-a-coffee-shop-but-not-in-your-open-office\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">lots of distractions<\/a>, <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/ideas.time.com\/2012\/08\/15\/why-the-open-office-is-a-hotbed-of-stress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stress-inducing<\/a> and <a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.calnewport.com\/blog\/2018\/07\/06\/open-offices-make-you-less-open\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">collaboration suppression<\/a>, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>Despite their flaws, workplace trends will endure.
