Calculate How Much Space You Really Need

How much space do you really need? Our space calculator is prepopulated with often overlooked components of many office space layouts, such as supply and copy areas, closets, server rooms and file areas, with sample measurements and space configurations to help you get a real-world view of your total space requirement before you search for office space. + more

Our calculations also cover internal circulation and average building load factors — your projected share of a building’s common areas — which are included in your rent and will affect your bottom line.

Though we make it easy for you to take full stock of your current — and future — ideal layout, we encourage you to sit with your Team architect or space planner as you use our calculator to discuss your organization’s workflow, department adjacencies and culture — all of which play an important role in space planning.

Later, you’ll revisit your space calculations with your architect, as you start space planning drawings for the top spaces you’re considering, to ensure that each possible layout accurately reflects your every need.
