KEY FACTSAccessible – can be used anytime, anywhere – wherever people have access to the corporate intranet (home, office, hotel etc.)

Dynamic – on the device you can “grab a room”, view who currently has the room booked or see when the next booking is due.

Simple - requires no staff training

Situated - provides room identification and meeting information where it is needed, outside the meeting room.

Mediates – gives high visibility to critical ever changing information about meetings, schedules and projects.

Economical - no central day to day management required and is extendable, units can be added or removed as required.

Federated – this appliance is “aware” of other RoomWizards, is OS and hardware platform independent, can be used via the corporate intranet.

Statistics - automatically creates statistics on room usage – even when people don’t pre book but “grab it” because it is free.

2.0

will the workplace exist?

The city.

A diverse collection of people and activities driven by economic opportunities and social aspirations,

access to public pedestrian space,

solid infrastructure and cohesive inter-modality,

functional and interdependent distribution systems,

a vibrant mix of neighborhoods

Hierarchical PlanningBased on Taylorist view of organisations as vertical and mechanistic.

Universal PlanningFocuses on efficiency of space. It reduces cost by fitting more people into less space.

Activity Based PlanningValue added to working practices through focusing on the integration of individual and group tasks and on explicit work practices. It is about the effectiveness of space.

Community Based PlanningIntegrates formal hierarchy and informal networks on one map of the workplace, recognising the tension between the two.
