How we worked this out

Areas follow planning standards and allowances for walkways and shared space; real space varies by building and layout. Floor layouts are illustrations on a generic Grade A floor. Rent figures are indicative rent only, before fit-out and other occupancy costs. The week plan shows the attendance you enter; it is not a forecast.

This is an indicative estimate from general planning assumptions and your inputs. It is not a valuation, space plan, advice or an offer. Take professional advice before committing to a lease.

Why calculate?

Turn a guess into a figure you can defend

For most businesses, rent is the largest cost after payroll. Sizing your space and testing your lease against the market keep that cost in line with how your team actually works.

Calculate your space

  • Pay only for what you use. Size the lease to your team, not to a round number.
  • Plan more than desks. Meeting rooms, pantry, reception, storage and circulation all need room, so no one is crammed in.
  • Plan for hybrid work. Fewer desks than people? Enter both and the estimate follows your real desk-sharing.
  • Plan for growth. Run it again with next year's or later years' headcount to see when you would outgrow a space.

Benchmark your lease

  • See where your rent sits. Compare it with Knight Frank's range for your area and grade.
  • Know your timing. See how long you have before expiry, and when to start talking to your landlord.
  • Back your budget. Take independent market data to leadership for a renewal, a move or a downsize.
  • Check it over time. Re-run it as the market moves, and as your attendance changes against the space you hold.

Use both: calculate what you need, then benchmark it against the market, so you neither over-commit nor under-provide.
