We are a finalist of the Agile Workplace 2.0 contest organized within FRAME x ORGATEC Design Challenge 2020!

The challenge was to present a vision of a workplace that would be truly agile – where employees would have unprecedented control over how their environment looks, feels and functions. Our concept of an agile workspace of the future was selected by a group of experts for the final three.

Agile Workplace 2.0 Design Challenge organised by FRAME Magazine and Orgatec Cologne fair was aimed at leading designers who want to present a vision of an agile workplace for the future. During the FRAME Awards 2020, held in Amsterdam, our team of designers: Ula Kuc, Monika Pietrosian, Aleksandra Piotrkowicz, Dominika Zielińska presented our proposal. The idea was to create an intelligent system which, over time, would learn the habits of employees and intuitively adapt the work environment to their needs, and give designers of such spaces an image of user experience data.

The next stage of the challenge was a virtual workshop led by Robert Thiemann, editor-in-chief of FRAME, during which we consulted our idea with industry experts – Beatriz Arantes and Ninela Ivanova, PhD. The starting point for the discussion was the assumption that it is the self-awareness of users, as people and not just as employees, that is the most important factor influencing the shape of the agile work environment.
