More than 40 RNL Design clients participated in the project, including Compaq Computer, Legacy Partners, Steelcase Inc., JBL, Denver's commercial real estate firm Frederick Ross Co., Nortel Networks, Haselden Construction and I-Media World.
The project's goal is to educate, create new dialogue and generate research about the way people work. The project integrates design, ergonomics, organizational behavior, technology, business planning and productivity. The project has been three years in the making.
Scheduled tours will be conducted on business days throughout the year. Tours are expected to draw organizational leaders, facility managers, business leaders, designers, architects and students.
Workplace 2010 will include the "playground," with comfortable but unconventional furniture for high-energy dialogue and brainstorming. The convergence space component is a large meeting area equipped with state-of-the-art sound and video teleconferencing accessible via the Internet. The space also includes the Info Bar, a type of "neighborhood café" gathering spot for employees to talk and exchange ideas. Then, there is the Your Room, a private area for relaxing, quiet time or individual workspace away from the primary work environment.
