Biohabitability is an architectural philosophy that focuses not only on aesthetics but on caring for life in all its aspects. It considers ecological, economic, and social factors when choosing materials and designing spaces. Its goal is to create environments that benefit people, the planet, and the economy.
For offices, biohabitability focuses on three main pillars:
Incorporating biohabitability into office design benefits both employees and companies.
Impact on employee well-being
When spaces prioritize health and well-being, employees tend to feel happier and more satisfied at work. And what does this translate to? A better quality of life, resulting in a more motivated team. 🚀
Boosts productivity and creativity
Well-designed spaces that incorporate biohabitability principles stimulate creativity and productivity. Natural light, fresh air, and an organized space are a must.
Reduces stress and improves workplace atmosphere
A healthy environment helps reduce stress levels. Providing a comfortable and stimulating space fosters a more positive and collaborative work environment, resulting in a stronger organizational culture.

Now that we understand the theory, let's look at some practical applications. Here are some tips we use in Lexington business centers:
With the rise of biohabitability, many companies are adopting new trends in office design. For instance:
Sustainable certified offices
More companies are prioritizing positive environmental impact by choosing sustainable offices. For this, they select offices with BREEAM, LEED, and WELL certifications, ensuring buildings meet certain health and sustainability standards.
💡 Did you know that Lexington offers sustainable certifications in our spaces at Diagonal 545 and Castellana 79?
Today’s offices are designed to promote collaboration and well-being, while still allowing private spaces for daily tasks. This trend provides employees with the flexibility to choose how and where to work, adapting to their needs.
At Lexington, we also ensure that companies choosing our flexible model feel comfortable and well-represented. One of our key services is workspace customization, meaning we adapt to each company’s specific needs. This allows our clients to shape their offices according to their growth plans, align the design with their brand identity, and create a workspace that reflects their essence while prioritizing employee well-being.
