Workplace & Warehouse Facilities

CMIW designed an entirely new type of work position furniture based on a pentagon shape allowing clusters of teams the chance to sit together while moving away from the stereotypical ‘chicken coop’ layout. Each pentagon provided 2 fixed positions with the option for a third or training space adjacent. Low level screens enabled eye to eye contact, while the offset seating position gave a more dynamic look to the open plan space as a whole. Enclosed cellular spaces were kept to a minimum, always allowing good visibility through the glazed partitioning. The manifestation design is a clever selection of the varied home appliance instruction icons that accompany all domestic appliances. A new use of brand that was not previously part of BSH playbook and prevents the building users from an over branded workspace. Calm and simple breakout spaces welcome visitors onto the floor with views overlooking the warehouse.
