Re-imagining the role of offices in a post-pandemic world through mobility data

Given changing expectations about the line between places where we live, work and play, it’s highligh likely new typologies of work will rise in popularity.

This project is an ongoing investigation into how mobility patterns were impacted by COVID19 and resulted in new micro-mobility patterns that could serve as the basis for future transport demand in poly centric cities. Inspired by Markov chains (left), I created a data visualization that would capture inflows, outflows and internal flows between and within planning regions, zones and sub zones in Singapore all in one graphic. I am investigating how transport networks and behavioural patterns
