As the landscape of workspace design pivots, an innovative approach to creating engaging, interactive spaces is driving companies like Align Technologies to reimagine the “cookie cutter” office concept. Utilizing cutting-edge technology and thoughtful design, businesses are creating experience centers that both inspire employees and provide optimal service for their clientele.

This emphasis on creating not just spaces, but experiences, reflects a trend in the industry moving towards providing unique, tailored environments that stimulate creativity, boost productivity, and, ultimately, ensure retention of top talent. Such a paradigm shift isn’t merely about building infrastructure—it’s about creating an ongoing narrative that evolves with the users of the space, supported by dedicated, skilled professionals. It’s also a testament to the potential of partnerships in driving change, pushing boundaries and encouraging innovative thinking.

As we transition from traditional to future-oriented workspaces, Michael McMayne, VP of Commercial Operations Technologies for Align Technologies sat down for a conversation with Tim Livolsi, about the exciting evolution of workspace design.
