9 agile work zones wrapped by plywood shells for a compact offic
The compact office might increasingly become ubiquitous due to the increasing requirement to work from home in the post-pandemic world. For Deloitte Center for the Edge (Asia pacific) office in Singapore, a multitude of working spaces was conceived to accommodate a myriad of working styles. The 32 m² office, located within the National Design Centre in Singapore, is designed with innate agility to transition from enclosures of individual concentration to collaborative spaces.
Different anthropometrical work boundaries and patterns were studied to create 9 distinct work zones:
1. Soft Working - Comfortable sofa work seating
2. Octopus Bar - Bar area with easy reach for work with a drink
3. Niche to Meet - Niche for 2-3 persons discussion
4. Dedicated Work Station - Single full-height work cubicle
5. Work with View - Worktop with a view of the neighbourhood
6. Privacy Booth - Fully felt-lined privacy booth with standing desk and bum seat
7. Work Platform - Concrete platform with more relaxed sitting options and docking niches for cork stools
8. Meet & Greet - Meeting table made from a local Rain Tree trunk
9. Think Wall - Collaborative wall with dry-erase surface
Research and studies have shown that movement improves concentration. By having the option of different zones, movement is encouraged and a variety of works zones could be used to suit different work requirements. The choice of curved surfaces is also qualified by neurological research to be more inviting and calming, allowing for more expansive conversations. Lighting has been programmed with different colour temperatures to subtly signal variable work/relax environments from morning to the evening (e.g. cool colour temperatures gradually transitioning to warm colour temperatures). Different work zones have been programmed with different light requirements.
