Cubicle Design Concept of the Day: “Workflow” by o4i.

The dynamic structure of the “Workflow” cubicle seems to be about recognizing that the stasis in cubicle design is leading to stasis in workplace creativity. o4i’s approach involves constructing a work area that reflects the “stages” of workflow in the modern office:

1. SOCIAL - INTERACTIVE: Meeting - Presenting - Socializing -
Teamworking: Standing up with the laptop on a high desk.

2. FUNCTIONAL - FOCUSED: Preparing - Producing: Sitting down on an ergonomic chair with the laptop on a desk.

3. CASUAL - PRIVATE: Summarizing - On the phone - Taking notes -
Relaxing - Contemplating: Lying down with the laptop on your lap.

Honestly, cubicle philosophy be damned — I just want to be able to lie down at work.
