Kaitlyn & Partners in Crime

Kaitlyn’s best friend is Illumination “Lumi” Prochazka; they’ve been best friends since kindergarten. Lumi has the power to absorb others’ abilities just by watching them, but only abilities that would actually be physically possible for someone of her size/stature. So she can’t leap tall buildings in a single bound, but she can temporarily become an Olympic-level gymnast just by watching one (although not if she’s just watching a video).

Lumi prefers to be more in the background, though, so she mainly uses her power to function as an omniglot and work in the role of royal translator. She also did a lot of the editing on their group’s videos back when they were teens, and still does sometimes when Kaitlyn puts out streams.

Kaitlyn’s kind of aware of how self-absorbed she can be so a lot of times she worries that she’s not giving Lumi enough attention. But she does her best. One of her kids is actually named after Lumi, although they call her Lulu because Illumination is a big name for a baby.

Austerity measures should not interfere with common areas

The current crisis has undoubtedly caused many companies to seek savings, often at the cost of redundancies. We are currently monitoring the demand for a reduction in office capacity by an average of 15-20 percent. Despite the current wave of redundancies, there will continue to be a struggle for quality people in the labor market. Therefore, companies should not save on the area and quality of common areas or meeting rooms, increasing the comfort of employees. But rather within the size of the desktop.

"Attractive office design underlining the corporate culture will certainly continue to be a trend for corporate clients, which will not be threatened even by the coronavirus crisis. We solve current savings from the point of view of the capacity of jobs, not common areas, company sports grounds or meeting rooms. Rather than solving the often impossible two-meter distances in practice, we focus on more efficient use of offices. Including the division of meeting rooms into several smaller ones and the "breaking" of open space into more smaller spaces separated by fixed and mobile dividing elements, "says Radek Vlček, head of project managers in the Design & Build team of Prochazka & Partners.

The current post-covid trend for streamlining space is, for example, to combine open and closed space in an interesting way. And separate employees into smaller teams. This will help to reduce the work area per employee (standardized table 70 x 140 cm) while maintaining the same area of ​​common areas.

"These solutions mean, on the one hand, higher financial costs that companies do not have in times of savings and, on the other hand, a real reduction in labor productivity, while neither companies can afford in times of savings and redundancies. The differences in the use of home office will certainly be in junior and senior positions, creative vs. support activities. But we expect a fundamental reassessment of needs. In the context, however, it is necessary to realize that home office means the practical transfer of fixed costs of companies to employees, whether they realize it themselves or not. "

There is already 50,000 meters of sublease on the Prague office market

We expect to double by the end of the year, so companies are dealing with excess capacity.

Developers, who currently have over 200,000 m2 of offices under construction, will have a strong competitor on the Prague market in the coming crisis years. And in the form of sublease or secondary lease. Companies are trying to subtract the excess capacity that they have created as a result of the crisis or the widespread introduction of a home office. The situation from 2009-2012 is repeated. At that time, before the crisis in 2008, construction was estimated at 1.2 million m2 for this period. In the end, only 600,000 m2 were realized. The reason for stopping construction was just excess capacity. The vacancy rate for offices increased from a record low of 5-6% to 12-14% in the crisis years.

"Currently, we see 50,000 m2 for sublease on the market and we expect to double it by the end of the year. Companies are thus trying to put excess capacity on the market. On the one hand, many of them have maintained a greater degree of the home office. On the other hand, there are companies that currently lay off 10–20% of employees, and it is clear that we have an oversupply in the office market that is not in the market statistics on projects under construction. The excess capacity that companies are currently trying to acquire will affect the desire to build new projects on the office market in the coming years, "says Radek Procházka, Managing Partner of Prochazka & Partners.

The advantage of the sublease for those interested in these spaces is immediate and quality equipment. This is mostly a high standard of offices and modern design, which was not spared in the pre-crisis years as part of the competitive struggle for equipment talent. Of course, it is necessary to separate the potential subtenant from the remaining office space. However, from the point of view of investments, this is a minimal cost compared to the actual construction or reconstruction.

The hybrid model of office operation

"The hybrid model, where a large part of employees work from home and office, becomes more just a place for meetings and mutual coordination is certainly preferred, especially in the IT segment. Until now, companies have competed for benefits so that employees spend most of their free time in offices. Large companies from other fields have long been inspired in the field of IT offices, and are currently re-evaluating their office future, which may cause another wave of excess capacity in the market, "adds Procházka.

Prochazka & Partners helped with the expansion of Zásilkovna

The company Prochazka & Partners provided new premises in Brno with a size of 4500 m2 for Zásilkovna. The new building is located in the logistics zone near Brno Airport and brings a number of innovations not only from the construction point of view, but also from the user's point of view. The modular construction system allowed the tenants to use two separate parts of one building in parallel while maintaining good transport services.

"I really appreciate the long-term cooperation with Zásilkovna and I am very pleased that we were able to help with our client's further strategic expansion, which will help further streamline their services," adds Eva Špicarová, Associate of Prochazka & Partners from the Industrial team.

Radek Procházka říká Firmy místo expanze zmenšují kapacitu svých kanceláří

Koronavirová krize bohužel významně zasáhla do kancelářského segmentu komerčních nemovitostí. Většina firem tak nyní volá po redukci nákladů, ať již vinou plošného zavádění home office, nebo propouštění.

„Firmy podnikající v České republice začaly masivně šetřit, propouštět pracovníky ve zkušební době a stoply i nábor. To bude v oblasti pronájmů kanceláří znamenat i preferenci prodloužení nájmů před stěhováním, u kterého bývá dominantním důvodem firemní růst,“ říká Radek Procházka, Managing Partner společnosti Prochazka & Partners.

Jaký reálný dopad bude krize mít na současnou situaci uvidíme lépe na začátku roku 2021, vzhledem k tomu, že trh komerčních nemovitostí má jisté zpomalení
