Considering how much time people spend in effects, it is important that with A be well designed. Well-designed office spaces help create a corporation's image. They motivate workers and they make an impression on people who visit and might be potential, or1, customers. They make business work better, and they are a part of the corporate culture to live in.
As we move away from an industrial-based economy to a knowledge-based one, office designers come up with2to the traditional work environments of the past. The design industry has moved away from a fixed office setup and created more flexible "strategic management environments." These3solutions are meant to support better organizational performance.
As employee hierarchies （等级制度）have flattened or decreased, office designers' response to this change has been to move open-plan areas to more desirable locations within the office and create fewer formal private offices. The need for increased flexibility has also been4by changes in workstation design. Office and work spaces often are not5to a given person on a permanent basis. Because of changes to methods of working, new design allow for expansion or movement of desks, storage, and equipment within the workplace. Another important design goal is communication, which designers have improved by breaking the walls that6workstations. Designers have also created informal gathering places and upgraded employees'7to heavily trafficked areas such as copy and coffee rooms.
Corporate and institutional office designers often struggle to resolve a number of competing and often8demands, including budgetary limits, employees hierarchies and technological innovation (especially in relation to computerization). These demands must also be balanced with the need to create interiors (内饰) that in some way enhance, establish or possess a company's image and will enable employees to9and their best.

It was a rainy morning and the children, mainly boys with various learning difficulties, refused to settle for the start of the lesson. As an inexperienced teacher, I tried every means to get them to be1, but in vain. my panic was rising and I could feel my heart beating wildly. This was the2of my job as a music teacher, I thought -- teaching was not for me. Then I had an idea. Hoping that no one would notice that I was3inside, I threw my voice as far as it would reach: "Put your heads on the desks and close your4! We are going on a journey."
