Flexibility is as important as ever
One of our strongest takeaways was that true flexibility in spaces and furniture is only becoming more important.
But flexibility isn’t just about adding castors to desks.
When you also integrate power solutions and monitor arms, for example, you’re giving people the choice to work ergonomically as they move between private and collaborative environments, using laptops and monitors.
And coming soon, battery tech on our new agile workstations powers in-desk modules, freeing desks from cables and giving you more freedom in how you design mobile spaces.
Resimercial design must be practical
How do you design workspaces that are both homely and practical? The real-time challenge sparked some great conversations.
Our new modular height adjustable collaboration table got people talking. One of you told us your client is looking for height adjustable tables that feel like dining room tables, but serve as functional workstations that 30 people can work at. Day in, day out. The table you saw featured integrated power, lighting, and battery operation, with the option to add screens, monitors, and more, all in one piece of furniture that encourages interaction. Look out for more information on this soon!
After lots of conversations about social collaboration, it was clear there’s a balance to be struck: it’s nice to make people feel at home at work, but just as important to give them the functionality – power, space, and access – to work effectively from the same piece of furniture.
Desking layouts are becoming more nuanced
One of the most interesting topics? How you can create more nuanced desk layouts for larger workforces.
And of course, there’s also the challenge of maximising space.
