Want employees to return to the office? Then give each one an office

What you quoted had numbers for open office spaces. They were 1/6 less to the same. And the source was a leasing guide. Office meant company office. Not individual office.

Ha, so you're right. That's what I get for trusting AI to answer a question.

That figure absurd in the context of an open office floorplan, and I suspect they're doing some "damned lies" statistics to arrive at it, such as amortizing the common area across the occupancy. I think every open office floorplan I've been in has had 4' desks. The next desk is flush against mine, and there was someone sitting directly behind me. At best, that's 16 sq ft. Generously 20. I have no idea how you arrive at ~150 sq. ft.
