Physical model tested in sitting position.

PROCESS / CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT

I wanted a piece of office furniture that would be relatively easy to move, and easy to adjust in height. I also wanted to make sure I could incorporate an expanding work surface, and a footrest. I created sketches, and full-size 3-D mock-ups to test with users for feedback, finally creating a final 3-D SolidWorks model as well as a full-size model for display.

USER SCENARIOS

  • Using my customizable workstation to collaborate with others in the office. Keeping a small supply of these workstations available to office workers to borrow and use through out the office when working with coworkers in a different area of the office.
  • To use for presentations within an office setting. Setting this up in a conference room as a lectern or podium while presenting, which can also provide space for any needed papers or a laptop.
