Despite COVID-19 pandemic, global lockdowns and panic - work did not stop. It could not stop. Very quickly, people found themselves working from their living rooms, kitchen counters, hotel desk or the bed – none of which were ideal solutions of the mind or body.
The Island is born from a need for a functional, compact, comfortable and practical design for remote working; one that is flexible, modulated and ergonomically designed to fit the task at hand. It is visualized a as a comfort zone at home or as a shelter in public places such as hotels, airports and malls.
Featuring a charging surface, sockets for the laptop, moveable and integrated worktop solutions, ambient lighting and a built-in speaker system for a fully customisable surround sound experience, the proposal allows the user to work safely, with their own unique configurations.
Connectivity – physical or digital is entirely by choice.
From a powder coated copper frames and the copper woven fabric structure to the hand painted ombre leather, all materials employed are carefully chosen to be easily cleanable, COVID-proof and sympathetic to multiple use.
