In the third episode of our new podcast series Notes on a Pandemic, CGTN Europe examines how workplaces are adapting to the new culture of social distancing.
We hear how the biggest office space in Scotland has had to change mid-construction to accommodate the demands of post-pandemic working. And we speak to the creators of new tech devices that are helping existing workplaces stay open.
We also visit one London animation studio that took the radical decision to completely close its new headquarters, just days ahead of the UK lockdown.
And, crucially, we ask if the office as we know it has a future at all?
Notes on a Pandemic is written and presented by Louise Greenwood. Additional production by Katherine Berjikian
CORRECTION: An earlier version of the podcast stated that the cost of the Virgin Money headquarters in Glasgow was $3.5 million. The cost of the development has since been corrected to $250 million in the podcast. An earlier version of the podcast also said the building will be the biggest single office space in Scotland. This has been corrected to say the building will be the largest office building in Glasgow.
