You never fully realise how important all your senses are until someone points them out to you. That’s why in our 167th issue of OnOffice, we’re highlighting how sense and design come together to create the perfect atmosphere. A room becomes whole when all the small pieces fit, especially office spaces. Sound-absorbing panels from brands like Abstracta to how an office smells and feels with different materials, which has been highlighted by interior design studio Jolie can all be found within this issue.

As you try to catch some sunshine this summer, we invite you to consider the ways in which your own work environment appeals to the senses – or not. If your surroundings present some challenges, a new sensibility may be the key to reaching a solution.
