Knotel Prototypes
A phonebooth prototype for a global co-working startup that provides a flexible, “kit-of-parts” approach to office space, providing instant office environments in any floor plate.
A flat packed plywood shell lined with a customizable acoustic fabric interior lining, the prototype is emphatically thin like a line drawing. It takes on the efficient spatial logic of the grid, but is elongated to provide more expansive space for the body on the interior.
This is the most minimal intervention for a start up that transforms any space into office space. Where digital technology renders office infrastructure obsolete in favor of devices, platforms, apps, and clouds, the dogmatic grid of the Modernist open office has morphed into a point cloud of infinite nodes.
