Practical concepts and guiding principles for workspace design.Workspace 設計的實務概念與指導原則。
Notion lets you build beautiful tools for your life's work, but sometimes our customers aren't exactly sure how to begin building. Our main job as consultants is to design and build those tools for our customers to help facilitate and encourage collaboration on Notion, otherwise known as Workspace Design.Notion 讓你能為工作打造精美的工具,但客戶有時不確定從何開始。身為顧問,我們的主要任務是為客戶設計和建置這些工具,促進並鼓勵在 Notion 上的協作,這就是所謂的 Workspace 設計。
Workspace Design is a strategic framework for designing scalable, intuitive information architecture within Notion that aligns organizational structure with digital workflows. It goes beyond simple page organization to create interconnected ecosystems where teams can seamlessly find, share, and collaborate on information while maintaining appropriate governance and security controls.Workspace 設計是一套策略框架,用於在 Notion 中設計可擴展、直覺式的資訊架構,使組織結構與數位工作流程對齊。它超越了單純的頁面整理,打造出相互連結的生態系統,讓團隊能無縫地查找、分享和協作資訊,同時維護適當的治理與安全控制。
We want to ensure that at least 95% of what users need is discoverable within three main areas. This reduces cognitive load through consistent navigation patterns, and evolves with the organization's growth without requiring complete restructuring!我們要確保使用者至少 95% 的需求能在三個主要區域內找到。這透過一致的導航模式降低認知負擔,並隨著組織成長演進,無需完全重組架構!
Click the plus signs below to reveal customer questions that are solved throughout the Workspace Design process:點擊下方的加號展開 Workspace 設計過程中會解決的客戶常見問題:
This is a common question from customers starting to organize their workspace. The Workspace Design process helps determine the right hierarchy of content based on how teams navigate and consume information.這是客戶開始整理 Workspace 時的常見問題。Workspace 設計流程會根據團隊如何導航和消費資訊,幫助決定合適的內容層級。
Whether to centralize information in shared teamspaces or decentralize it across team-specific areas depends on the organization's structure, collaboration patterns, and governance requirements.要將資訊集中在共享 Teamspace,還是分散到各團隊專屬區域,取決於組織結構、協作模式和治理需求。
Determining what information requires restricted access is a key part of workspace design. This includes sensitive HR data, financial information, and strategic documents that should only be accessible to specific groups.決定哪些資訊需要限制存取是 Workspace 設計的關鍵部分。這包括敏感的人資數據、財務資訊,以及只有特定群組才能存取的策略文件。
Some organizations prefer a flat hierarchy where all content is equally accessible, while others need more structured layers. The right approach depends on team size, information volume, and usage patterns.有些組織偏好所有內容同等可及的扁平層級,而有些則需要更有結構的分層。正確的做法取決於團隊規模、資訊量和使用模式。
The recommended starting point is 3 main teamspaces: a Home teamspace, an Operating System teamspace, and Functional/Team Area teamspaces. This keeps the structure manageable while covering most organizational needs.建議的起始點是 3 個主要 Teamspace:一個首頁 Teamspace、一個作業系統 Teamspace,和一個功能/團隊區域 Teamspace。這讓結構保持可管理性,同時涵蓋大多數組織需求。
The Knowledge Flywheel shows how Notion turns static knowledge repositories into active, living systems where knowledge creation, collaboration, and retrieval continuously reinforce each other. This is what makes Notion indispensable as teams' central knowledge hub.知識飛輪展示了 Notion 如何將靜態的知識庫轉變為活躍的系統,在其中知識的創建、協作和檢索持續相互強化。這正是 Notion 作為團隊核心知識中樞不可或缺的原因。
When designing a customer's Notion workspace, it's helpful to think of how users will interact with information in Notion in these 3 ways:在設計客戶的 Notion Workspace 時,思考使用者如何以這三種方式與資訊互動會很有幫助:
The Notion Knowledge Flywheel: Create → Collaborate → Find & InsightNotion 知識飛輪:創建 → 協作 → 查找與洞察
Ensuring Notion aligns with a customer's org structure, mission, and objectives creates a centralized, scalable, and purpose-driven workspace that enhances efficiency, collaboration, and strategic execution.確保 Notion 與客戶的組織結構、使命和目標對齊,能打造出集中化、可擴展、以目的為導向的 Workspace,提升效率、協作和策略執行力。
It needs to be clear for the end users what they are coming to Notion for and why:必須讓終端使用者清楚知道他們為什麼要使用 Notion:
When the knowledge flywheel is properly aligned with company structure, it transforms Notion from a documentation tool into a strategic business asset that:當知識飛輪與公司結構正確對齊時,它將 Notion 從一個文件工具轉變為策略性的商業資產:
The knowledge flywheel only creates lasting value when it's built on the foundation of how the organization actually operates, not how we think they should operate.知識飛輪只有建立在組織實際運作方式的基礎上,才能創造持久的價值——而非我們認為他們應該如何運作。
When designing customer workspaces, keep these three principles in mind to help drive success and adoption on Notion.在設計客戶 Workspace 時,牢記這三個原則以推動 Notion 的成功採用。
The three workspace design principles and where they fall on the scale.三大 Workspace 設計原則及其在光譜上的定位。
Make information effortless: when people can find what they need fast, work speeds up and rework drops. Organize clearly, add just enough context, and keep patterns consistent so need-to-know becomes easy-to-find.讓資訊取得毫不費力:當人們能快速找到所需,工作速度加快、重複作業減少。清楚組織、加入適量的上下文、保持模式一致,讓「需要知道的」變成「容易找到的」。
Below are a few examples of how this design principle appears in Workspace Design:以下是這個設計原則如何體現在 Workspace 設計中的幾個範例:
Teamspace access in Notion.Notion 中的 Teamspace 存取設定。
Teamspace settings in Notion.Notion 中的 Teamspace 設定。
Group permission in Notion.Notion 中的群組權限設定。
Why is this important? Reduces information silos and ensures that knowledge is shared effectively across teams!為什麼重要?減少資訊孤島,確保知識在團隊間有效共享!
Tips to guide your design:設計指引提示:
Keep it simple: reduce complexity wherever possible by keeping navigation and workflows easy to use and maintain.保持簡潔:盡可能降低複雜度,讓導航和工作流程容易使用與維護。
Below are a few examples of how this design principle appears in Workspace Design:以下是這個設計原則如何體現在 Workspace 設計中的幾個範例:
Default spaces in Notion.Notion 中的預設空間。
Templates in Notion.Notion 中的 Template。
Database example in Notion.Notion 中的 Database 範例。
New Template option in databases in Notion.Notion Database 中的新增 Template 選項。
Why is this important? Improves usability, ensures scalability, and reduces friction in workspace adoption!為什麼重要?提升可用性、確保可擴展性,並降低 Workspace 採用的阻力!
Tips to guide your design:設計指引提示:
Give teams the access they need while protecting sensitive data and keeping the workspace clean and secure.在保護敏感資料和維持 Workspace 整潔安全的同時,給予團隊所需的存取權限。
Below are a few examples of how this design principle appears in Workspace Design:以下是這個設計原則如何體現在 Workspace 設計中的幾個範例:
Content verification feature with indefinitely selected.內容驗證功能,已選擇「無限期」。
Organize the project catalog and categorize your work in folders. Use search and filters to easily find the courses you need.整理專案目錄並將工作分類到資料夾中。使用搜尋和篩選器輕鬆找到你需要的課程。
Delete option highlighted.刪除選項已標記。
Example of workspace analytics.Workspace 分析範例。
Stakeholder pyramid with IT Admins highlighted.利害關係人金字塔,IT 管理員已標記。
Outcome: A workspace with a clear governance structure, appropriate permissions, and defined roles to ensure the workspace is maintained and delivers value long term!成果:一個具有清晰治理結構、適當權限和明確角色的 Workspace,確保長期維護並持續創造價值!
Detailed inputs needed from your customer to influence your design.影響你設計的客戶詳細資訊需求。
Now that we know what Workspace Design is and the design principles used to build, let's spend some time diving into the detailed inputs needed from your customer to help influence your design.現在我們了解了什麼是 Workspace 設計以及用於建置的設計原則,讓我們深入探討需要從客戶那裡獲取的詳細資訊,以影響你的設計。
Discovery is critical: Everything in a healthy Notion workspace — architecture, navigation, permissions, database relationships — comes from what you learn upfront. Skip or rush discovery and you're not "saving time," you're just pre-paying for rework. Do it well and the workspace almost designs itself; do it poorly and you're redesigning mid-flight.探索至關重要:一個健康的 Notion Workspace 中的一切——架構、導航、權限、Database 關聯——都來自你前期學到的東西。跳過或匆忙完成探索並不是「節省時間」,而是在預付返工的成本。做好探索,Workspace 幾乎會自己設計出來;做不好,你就得在執行途中重新設計。

Sometimes a simple flow chart or diagram of the org can help you understand and visualize the team you're building for, the workflows they use, and who they work with cross-functionally.有時一張簡單的流程圖或組織圖可以幫助你理解和視覺化你所服務的團隊、他們使用的工作流程,以及跨功能協作的對象。
This will influence Teamspace and Page access which we'll discuss more in the Permissions lesson.這將影響 Teamspace 和 Page 的存取權限,我們會在權限設計課程中詳細討論。
Understanding who is actually using the workspace (and how) shows which structures are working and where fragmentation exists; it prevents redesigns that ignore real usage patterns.了解誰在實際使用 Workspace(以及如何使用)能顯示哪些結構有效、哪裡存在碎片化;這能避免忽略真實使用模式的重新設計。
Question Examples:問題範例:
Surfacing friction (duplication, findability issues, permission confusion) pinpoints architectural or information design gaps so you solve root causes instead of layering on cosmetic fixes.浮現摩擦點(重複、可尋性問題、權限混淆)能精確定位架構或資訊設計的缺口,讓你解決根本原因而非只做表面修補。
Question Examples:問題範例:
Identifying high-leverage improvements (consolidating databases, clarifying navigation, standardizing properties) directs architecture and design effort toward changes that unlock measurable efficiency and adoption gains.找出高槓桿的改善方向(整合 Database、釐清導航、標準化屬性)將架構和設計精力導向能帶來可量化效率和採用提升的改變。
Question Examples:問題範例:
Defining clear targets (adoption %, time-to-find, reduction in duplicate databases) aligns architecture and design decisions with business outcomes and provides a feedback loop to validate the new structure.定義清晰的目標(採用率 %、查找時間、重複 Database 減少量)將架構和設計決策與業務成果對齊,並提供驗證新結構的回饋迴路。
Question Examples:問題範例:
Launching Notion with a few initial use cases (as identified by you and your customer in discovery) encourages healthy Notion adoption.用幾個初始使用案例(你和客戶在需求探索確定的)來啟動 Notion,能促進健康的 Notion 採用。
Ensures the workspace is built around real workflows and team needs確保 Workspace 圍繞真實工作流程和團隊需求建置
Aligns database design with core use cases for efficiency and scalability使 Database 設計與核心使用案例對齊,提升效率和可擴展性
Creates an intuitive and easy-to-navigate workspace tailored to how teams work打造直覺且易於導航的 Workspace,貼合團隊的工作方式
A well-designed workspace makes Notion more valuable and encourages consistent use設計良好的 Workspace 讓 Notion 更有價值,鼓勵持續使用
Workspaces, Teamspaces, Pages, and Databases determine how users at a company will organize, interact with, and adopt content and workflows built with Notion. These structures (along with permissions) are the core areas you can use to build and design in Notion.Workspace、Teamspace、Page 和 Database 決定了公司使用者如何組織、互動和採用在 Notion 中建置的內容和工作流程。這些結構(連同權限)是你在 Notion 中建置和設計的核心領域。
Some companies may use multiple workspaces for deliberate use cases like legal separation or information barriers with strict IP.有些公司可能因為法律隔離或嚴格的智慧財產權資訊屏障等特定用途而使用多個 Workspace。
However Notion's recommended path is a single workspace by default to reduce information sprawl and silos.然而 Notion 建議的做法是預設使用單一 Workspace,以減少資訊擴散和孤島。
Questions to Ask:需要詢問的問題:
If your customer answers yes to the above, you may need to create separate workspaces. In all other instances we recommend having one Workspace and building and customizing Teamspaces to meet customer needs.如果客戶對以上問題回答是,你可能需要建立獨立的 Workspace。在所有其他情況下,我們建議使用一個 Workspace 並建置和自訂 Teamspace 來滿足客戶需求。
A Notion Workspace should be designed so that end users can find 95% of what they need within 3 main Teamspaces.Notion Workspace 的設計應該讓終端使用者能在 3 個主要 Teamspace 中找到 95% 的所需。
Once you've aligned on what those Teamspaces are and who should have access, you can begin to create pages and workflows within them.一旦你們對齊了 Teamspace 的內容和誰應該有存取權限,就可以開始在其中建立頁面和工作流程。
Example Notion Teamspace.Notion Teamspace 範例。
The 3 main Teamspaces we recommend starting with are:我們建議從以下 3 個主要 Teamspace 開始:
Where central knowledge for the whole company is located全公司核心知識的集中地
Where cross functional knowledge and processes come together跨功能知識和流程的匯集處
Where team priorities, workflows, and knowledge is located團隊優先事項、工作流程和知識的所在地
Once you've identified the Teamspaces you'll need, it's time to design the pages that sit within those Teamspaces.一旦確定了所需的 Teamspace,就該設計其中的頁面了。
Pages are where Notion "blocks" are located. Notion has hundreds of blocks for you to customize and build with to create valuable customer workflows and use cases to life.Page 是 Notion「區塊」所在之處。Notion 有數百種區塊供你自訂和建置,將有價值的客戶工作流程和使用案例化為現實。
Some example blocks include text, image, map, toggles, to-do lists, databases, and buttons.範例區塊包括文字、圖片、地圖、Toggle、待辦清單、Database 和按鈕。
Page example showing the types of features that can be found on a page.Page 範例,展示可在頁面上找到的功能類型。
Workspace permissions that shape your design and page-sharing capabilities.影響你的設計和頁面共享能力的 Workspace 權限。
The three areas of permissioning you can adjust when building your workspace are:在建置 Workspace 時,你可以調整的四個權限區域是:
You'll want to determine who needs access to what information, and where their access point is within the workspace. Is it through a default teamspace? Can they find the information through search or by using Notion AI? Can a page be shared with them directly, or can they access pages in a database?你需要決定誰需要存取什麼資訊,以及他們在 Workspace 中的存取點在哪裡。是透過預設的 Teamspace?能透過搜尋或 Notion AI 找到資訊嗎?能直接與他們共享頁面嗎?還是他們能存取 Database 中的頁面?
Set default teamspaces. Become a Teamspace owner and override permissions set at Workspace level.設定預設 Teamspace。成為 Teamspace 擁有者並覆蓋在 Workspace 層級設定的權限。
Workspace Owner or Org Owner (on Enterprise)Workspace Owner 或 Org Owner(Enterprise 方案)
Example of Permissioning setting.權限設定範例。
Set your Teamspace discoverability. Add groups.設定 Teamspace 的可發現性。新增群組。

In short, does your workspace allow for public page sharing? To help your customer answer this question, here are three things to keep in mind regarding page sharing when designing workspaces:簡而言之,你的 Workspace 是否允許公開頁面共享?為幫助客戶回答這個問題,在設計 Workspace 時請記住以下關於頁面共享的三件事:
Page sharing access example.頁面共享存取範例。
Questions to Ask:需要詢問的問題:
Depending on your customer's response you can determine what page sharing levels are appropriate for their needs.根據客戶的回應,你可以決定什麼樣的頁面共享層級適合他們的需求。
