The cubicle farm, once seen as the pinnacle of office efficiency, is now being replaced by co-working spaces. These offices are defined by their ability to cater to a wide array of disciplines by "flexing" to the needs of office workers. The Co-Zone combines the function and organization provided by a co-working space with the opportunity for individuals to customize their workspace according to their personal needs and preferences. The movable Co-Zone panels communicate data about climate and their configuration to other projects in the interactive environment.
Co-Zone combines the function and organization provided by a co-working space with the opportunity for individuals to customize their workspace.
