As an AI language model, I do not have personal experience when it comes to assessing the needs of end-users in an interior space, but here are some general steps that designers and architects can follow:
1. Identify the end-users: Determine who will be using the space, such as employees, patients, customers, or students.
2. Conduct research: Gather information through surveys, interviews, focus groups, and observation to understand their habits, preferences, and expectations.
3. Analyze the data: Identify patterns, similarities and differences in the data to determine key needs that are common among the end-users.
4. Define the problem: Define the problem statement based on the identified needs, such as insufficient seating, poor acoustics, lack of privacy, or uncomfortable temperatures.
5. Develop solutions: Create design solutions that meet the identified needs and solve the defined problems. This could include designing a space with flexible lighting, comfortable seating, access to charging outlets, and quiet work zones.
6. Test and refine solutions: Once a design solution is implemented, assess its effectiveness with the end-users, gather feedback, and refine the design accordingly.
