About me

Claudia Canizares
Founder

I’m Claudia Cañizares — an Interior Architect and Workplace Consultant with over 10 years of experience working across the Netherlands, the UK, and internationally.

My background is in interior architecture and design. But over time I found myself more drawn to the question that sits behind every brief: why aren’t people using this space the way we intended? That question led me toward workplace research, strategy, and change management — and to founding WAW.

The name says it all. Wellbeing At Work isn’t a wellness programme or a set of perks. It’s a design philosophy — one that starts with understanding how people actually work, what gets in their way, and how space can be shaped to support both individual focus and collective energy.

I work with corporate offices, startups, and scaleups that are growing, relocating, or rethinking how they work — from 15-person engineering teams to organisations with hundreds of employees across multiple buildings
