Office to Combine people and Robots

Whats the meaning of design here? Having just read James Dyson's bio recently makes me wonder. Lots of prototypes to be tested in context?   Nature of the work?   Is this the ideal time to bring people back to work? 

Futuristic Office Was Designed for 5,000 People--and 100 Robot Coworkers By Fast Company, June 3, 2022

South Korean online platform Naver is opening the new world headquarters of its Naver Labs research and development subsidiary in the city of Seongnam this month.

The 28-story building, which the company calls "the world's first robot-friendly building," will feature 100 wheeled robots that will deliver packages and food/drink orders to 5,000 human employees in the building.,  The robots can use the building's 36 human elevators but also have access to the Roboport, a robot-exclusive elevator that works like an internal Ferris wheel.

The robots navigate the building using a traditional video camera, the building's internal 5G network, and a "digital twin" that is cross-referenced with the camera feed to place robots within six inches of a desired location.
