The Challenges
1. Innovative solutions
What the face of activity-based office is and what it can be
2. A new supporting product
Designing a new product to help our aim of activity-based space
3. Office inspired by VR
A space influenced by Virtual Reality
Research Process
This group project started with a thorough investigation and meetings with professionals and was followed by detailed interviews with employees of the key companies in our field of choice such as IBM. The first step was to understand what activity-based spaces are and what could be explored in this regard. We used a variety of research methods such as:
- Observations
- Interviews
- Field Research
- Desk Research

Inspiration
The main inspiration for this project was the atmosphere of sci-fi movies.
The main inspiration for this project was the atmosphere of sci-fi movies.
Circular shapes, transparent and reflective materials, and a bold color palette for the lighting system were exceptionally interesting for us.
My Role
I was responsible for creating every 2D visual and also post-production of 3D renders for the final presentation. Together with my group, we conducted field research, desk research, site visits, interviews, and a thorough analysis of data related to the spaces and activity-based offices. We had brainstorming sessions about settings and inspirations. In the end, we designed innovative spaces, solutions, and the dividing system (the Capsules).

The Solution
Space: We spoke to several users and conducted research to pinpoint the essential areas in our space. To ensure easy access to these critical zones, we strategically positioned them at the center. The areas designed for lounging and relaxation are tucked away in the corners.
Capsule: Capsules are vital to the design of the space. They function as soundproof partitions that are both movable and adjustable, creating a sense of the spaces floating.
