However, there is a growing demand from other new segments of the market, which are beginning to invest aggressively in their interior spaces, given the new occupiers` requirements on health and safety.

 

„The medical sector (public and private hospitals and clinics), the educational sector (especially the private schools) or the hospitality sector (hotels but also restaurants) have started to invest more and more in design and their interior spaces, both as a result of the new health and wellbeing concerns, as well as from the point of view of increasing competition.
