At Workspace Design Show 2025, Design Insider`s Editorial Director, Alys Bryan, will be chairing a cutting-edge discussion on AI’s role in architecture and workplace design. Can AI truly optimise spaces, enhance well-being, and improve productivity—or are we just scratching the surface?

Together with:
🔹 Lorena Espaillat – Senior Architect, Zaha Hadid Architects
🔹 Hamza Shaikh – Digital Artist & Architect, Gensler
🔹 Deepak Parmar – Design Director / B Corp Lead, MCM

The panel will explore:

1️⃣ What is AI really optimising? Are generalised data sets limiting inclusivity and user-specific solutions?
2️⃣ Volume vs. quality—does AI deliver meaningful outcomes or does it struggle when prompts are too specific?
3️⃣ The power of data—how can firms train AI on unique inputs for more meaningful results?
4️⃣ The future of AI in design—can AI and human creativity truly work together, or will one dominate?

Join the Conversation!

At Workspace Design Show 2025, Design Insider Editorial Director, Alys Bryan, will be chairing an important discussion on how workplace design can be truly inclusive—beyond compliance, beyond checklists, and beyond assumptions.

A well-designed workplace should empower everyone, from a multigenerational workforce to neurodiverse employees, without sacrificing aesthetics or functionality. But how do we strike the right balance between designing for diverse needs, maintaining a compelling visual identity, and ensuring practical accessibility?

Together with:
🔹 Matt Clarke – Managing Director, Umbrella
🔹 Elena Panagiotidis – Managing Director, Siren Design
🔹 Marco Gastoldi – Associate, Gensler
🔹 Rachel Merriman – Head of Facilities, The FA Premier League

We’ll explore the challenges and opportunities of inclusive design, including:

1️⃣ What is inclusive design? Why accessibility, universal design, and inclusive design are not the same—and why it matters.
2️⃣ Designing for a diverse workforce—from Baby Boomers to Gen Z, every generation has different needs. How can hybrid models, sensory design, and spatial adaptability support everyone?
3️⃣ Striking a balance between aesthetics and function—does designing for inclusivity mean compromising on beauty? Or can workplaces be both visually compelling and accessible?
4️⃣ The client’s role in driving change—how informed decision-making can push inclusivity forward, moving features like prayer rooms, baby-feeding spaces, and quiet zones from nice-to-have to standard practice.
