Theoretical background: The literature analysis focuses on the importance of spatial design of warehouses, especially the retrieval zone. Research shows that warehouse layout has a key impact on operational efficiency, especially in manual order picking. The authors discuss various approaches that are mainly aimed at minimizing the average distance traveled by warehouse employees when picking orders. Other studies also include warehouse workers’ movements and operations planning. The authors note that existing research focuses mainly on operational efficiency, ignoring social and environmental aspects. Hence, there is a need to develop a methodology that will take into account these additional aspects of designing a sustainable warehouse. Purpose of the article: The article in the context of scientific research aims to present the methodology of designing a spatial warehouse system in terms of sustainable development. In a practical context, a tool for assessing the effectiveness of sustainable design was developed. Research methods: A case study was chosen as the research method. Observation and interviews with employees were used. These methods allowed for a better understanding of the analyzed issue and occurring phenomena. In addition, the methods used allowed to verify the developed method of spatial design of the warehouse in terms of sustainable development. Main findings: By achieving scientific and practical goals, the article can contribute to promoting sustainable design in business and architectural practice and contribute to building a more sustainable and effective work environment.
