New architectural adaptations will transform the real estate industry

The future design of residential projects will be radically different from the present, as the boundary between home, office and leisure becomes increasingly blurred.

Leading architectural companies in the real estate industry talk about the need for change in design due to the shift in operational requirements across various sectors.

This and many other topics will be discussed at the Cityscape Global exhibition that will take place from 9 to 11 November 2021 at the Dubai Exhibition Centre on the Expo 2020 grounds. The event will host leading architects and designers from across the globe who will focus on trending industry topics such as proptech, future design trends and smart cities.

Due to the increased popularity of the ‘work-from-home’ lifestyle, a greater emphasis is put on re-designing living spaces to cater to the new requirements and challenges. Our homes become a multi-functional space, so open- plan layouts are preferred by families, allowing them to multitask in a functional and efficient manner.

The future design of residential projects will be radically different from the present, as the boundary between home, office and leisure becomes increasingly blurred. Homes will become more flexible, catering to the need for family members to interact and coexist simultaneously while doing homework, prepping for meals or working on a laptop.

Radical changes are being implemented across various pillars in the real estate industry, allowing facilities to carry on with day-to-day operations in a safe manner while in line with government protocol. The challenge for designers will be to create buildings that have the flexibility and adaptability to evolve over time.
