Research
At Davenport Campbell we put people at the centre of the design process. It’s a shift in emphasis towards human behaviour: what people want to do at work and how they want to interact. And we rely on tested insights to eliminate the guess work.
Quality research, behavioural science and data all help to inform the way we design to craft the most effective spaces for people to work productively and be happy. This evidence-based approach provides the navigation we need to guide the design of exceptional workplaces that genuinely support human activity.
We’ve created and curated a collection of research studies that help us achieve our purpose: to make life better for people at work through beautiful, data driven, logical design.
