The Challenges
The first step was to look at the layout of the existing space. The client wanted to use the space as effectively as possible in order to allow for dozens of people working together. In addition, the company’s social and friendly working style required the freedom to configure the room as needed.
Agile = Flexible
The use of laptops and mobile devices allow for a totally flexible work environment which is the essence of an efficient agile or activity-based working.

If the concept was to allow agile work, the team had to be able to move the room around to suit their purposes. Plus, in a dynamic workplace like this, everyone had to be included. After all, frequent social interactions and opportunities to collaborate are the keys to the client’s success.
However, there had to be room for focused and uninterrupted work as well. The agile workplace design needs to be balanced.
