The Best in Show awarded at the Milan Furniture Fair by UK magazine MIX Future Interiors, Smanks Design Studio has a solution for ill-timed meetings.
Camelot is a screen developed for the open plan office. It can be used as a regular screen between desks. By zipping it together you can form longer wall-dividers, and turn it in to small meeting rooms.
80% of the meetings in an open plan office take place by your desk, and lasts only for 5-10 minutes. This is a very important strength of open planning since it increases information exchange. But at the same time it can be disturbing for collegues close by trying to do concentrated work. By placing “camelot” inside the plan, it becomes an easily accessible place for these short meetings. In contrast to a regular meeting room, you don’t have to book it, it is closer to your desk, and you don’t have to pass through a door to use it.
