Manifesto: 3-dimensional space management
Manifesto is the product of our research into today's workers including Gen-Y and the evolving workplace, which helped us to define a new dimension in work-life balance. Manifesto’s extensive menu of elements supports 3-dimensional space management, to enable the creation of complete workplaces that facilitate individual and team work in a variety of settings.
Manifesto: Our observations
Insight 1: Objects trump paper.
We want to keep things that matter to us, both personal and for work, close at hand. Papers and objects we use on a daily basis are stored in the open. We feel comfortable with both Personal and Public items, Tools, Toys and Trophies all in the same space. Our space.
Insight 2: People want visual access.
People want to keep their work and personal gear close to their personal workspace.
They want spaces and places to display their things — tools, trophies, and toys, both private and public—so they’re easy to find. It’s so much easier to find and use something when you can see it.
Insight 3: More important and urgent work stays close by and near the top.
When objects, papers, and devices are used daily, we like to store them close at hand in whatever space is available. You’ll find on the worksurface, in open cabinets, balanced whenever, or even dumped on the floor. Wherever they are easy to see and ready to grab.
Which naturally means they start on top — until they get buried
Manifesto: Think in 3 dimensions
New work styles, work-life demands and increasing workplace density are changing the way systems and storage are planned and used. Applying our insights, Manifesto aims to optimize the use space by thinking in 3 dimensions, overcoming contemporary workplace challenges to:
• Help to change the way we work
• Help the work-life balance with personal items at work
• Help overcome workplace density
• Help support all kinds of workstyle
We set out five design principles to make the best possible use of space:
1. Make space below the waterline
2. Use vertical space
3. Make the system modular
4. Make the workspace more personal
5. Promote interaction
