As part of the new 2019 “Smart & Working” event cycle
dedicated to Environmental Comfort, Ass ufficio organizes a round table
dedicated to the OfficePod or the "Pod" to use the definition that the Anglo-Saxons
have given the "privacy boxes", a new type of furniture that stands
enjoying great success.
The meeting aims to find out the advantages and disadvantages
to avoid possible problems.
Privacy Box, Collaborative Room, Silent Room, Cube,
Concentration Area, are other names for these self-supporting glass boxes
-real micro architectures for interiors- designed to respond to
privacy needs in open space offices and collective environments.
A hybrid between furniture and casing, so new that it has no regulations
unique reference.
While it solves many problems, the office pod can create new ones.
This is why it is important, both for producers and users,
also know fundamental details that may not be visible.
The meeting will address the main aspects with interventions from
experts in the various sectors, will provide information on the relevant regulations and
will open a lively debate between facility and project managers who have decided to
use Office Pod or
which instead will motivate why they have not adopted them.
Industrial designers and manufacturing companies will have the opportunity
to express your point of view and the benefits of the Office Pod.
We will also highlight the aspects needed for improvement
