How your physical space plays a role in your mental health

--:--
Given the amount of time that individuals have spent at home over the last few months, it begs the question: Does our physical space also play a role in our mental health? Pearl Scheltema interviews Jacques van Embden from property development firm Blok on how the increase in working from home intersect with mental health. A UK publication recently explored the mental health issues associated with work from home, and found that a surprising majority of those surveyed indicated they would prefer returning to the office, citing mental health issues and disintegration of healthy boundaries. In short, they were no longer working from home, but living at work. Yet, work from home doesn't appear to be going anywhere anytime soon. Pearl and Jacques discusses the rise of the home office, and the increasingly starring role it will play in our lives - and subsequently our mental health.
