One of the leaders in our Great Conversation community sent me a brief but compelling message:
I want to introduce you to Hans Nyamie for your next Great Conversation. Hans is one of the most interesting people I have spoken with in a long time. He is focused on facility space planning and technology.
When I went to his LinkedIn it told me very little
Workplace and FM Systems Specialist (incl: Agile/Activity Based Working,Space Management & Administration)
Not a lot to go on. But I arranged a call with him although our time differential was significant. London vs. Seattle!
What I found is the anthropomorphic version of glue-ware. Hans seeks to integrate and harmonize the interests of the user, the integrator, and the business around the form, function, and purpose of space.
More importantly, when he is not focused on his existing projects, he is exploring the future meaning of the spaces we occupy. Because the continuous and accelerating change we are experiencing requires a degree of agility and adaptation that the current built environments we have today are not equipped to handle.
In 2021, Facebook announced its future focus on the Metaverse. And our spaces must reflect this new digital transformation. We have a great conversation around space, place, and the future.
Enjoy.
