Cubicles & Workstations — Expert Answer
What square footage should each employee have in a cubicle-based open office?
In a cubicle-based office, plan for 75–125 sq ft per person including the workstation footprint and a proportional share of circulation, storage, and support areas. A 6'x6' cubicle is 36 sq ft of station footprint; add 50–100% for shared areas and you're at 55–72 sq ft per person, plus support spaces. For a more comfortable, less-dense environment: 100–125 sq ft per person is a reasonable commercial planning standard that includes conference rooms and break areas in the allocation.
