Colliers Propstack Report | Evolving office trends in a post pandemic world

The way we view offices is changing, but they remain pivotal to an organization’s growth. As we emerge stronger from a tough phase, we look at how office space absorption have changed over the last 30 months.

In this report, we observe leasing patterns pre pandemic and post pandemic. While leasing has declined from April 2020, there are some interesting trends that have emerged. Firstly, NCR and Bengaluru emerged as the most resilient office markets. Secondly, occupiers are renewing existing spaces, while postponing fresh leasing decisions. Thirdly, BFSI companies are continuing to expand their footprint, post pandemic.

Occupiers are looking to be in new-generation offices with modern amenities with focus on health and wellness. There will be more emphasis on flexibility, with occupiers keen to explore coworking spaces for a decentralized workforce.

The future is hybrid. Office usage patterns will change, and occupiers will become nimble to maximize efficiency. As occupiers devise their strategies, developers too will become more adaptable.
