Taking Work Outdoors: a Unique Office Experience

This design conjecture is one intended to draw professionals to a unique outdoor workspace, unlike one they have used before.

The pop-up collaboration working space invites professionals to sit together in a private “outdoor office” to get work done, away from the stagnant corporate setting. The seating space begins as a sleek wall, but swings open and unfolds to reveal two benches and a table, perfect for the small gathering of co-workers or clients. All pieces are stored compactly within the unit and are not able to be stolen or removed. This offers the user a dynamic experience without being overwhelmed by small movable pieces, like some outdoor seating arrangements have. 

The pop-up unit could also be perfect for incorporating more outdoorsy elements, such as hanging plants or a living wall, to provide even more of an outdoor office experience. The units could also be great for displaying community art or signage for upcoming local events. This pop-up space would utilize internet connection from the National Aviation Heritage Alliance/National Parks Service, which is just down the block, so business professionals would still be able to stay connected to their office. This solution is definitely a unique experience that post-pandemic professionals would be drawn to, as a means to ease people back into in-person meetings, while remaining in the comfort of the outdoors.
