Insights
A lack of spaces
A lack of spaces
A lack of spaces
Traditionally, workstations take up the vast majority of the floor plan. Many existing solutions for non-task related seating are often bulky or not modular. As a result, workers often had limited access spaces that truly supported their needs.
Personal Storage
Personal Storage
With more mobility comes the increasing need for personal storage options. We are working out of our bags at increasing rate and as such, personal storage should be accessible and close by. Further, open storage invites users to use a space.
Mobility requires access to power
Mobility requires access to power
Mobility is not just a trend – more and more identify themselves primarily as mobile workers. As such, access to power to recharge mobile devices is an important consideration, but is often lacking in in-between spaces.
Privacy
Privacy
We often break away from our workstations to seek out non-traditional spaces for deeper focus. Workers often pulled furniture against the wall, or positioned themselves to shield themselves and their information. It was clear there was a lack of privacy in these in-between spaces.
