Semi-public Workstations

The internet has allowed for business to be conducted outside the normal office environment. Cafes are now crammed morning-to-night with mobile workers and their laptops. Lack of work space, outlets, and safe storage are some of the many problems in this makeshift work area. However, this informal setting continues to be more and more desirable. Co-Work re-proportions this informal work space by creating an easily modulated and tesselating table complete with features that streamline the work environment. Co-Work is highly adaptable to the user’s demands while working in conjunction with the cafe’s own concerns and market.

Sound & Vision continuously customizes to the user and their environment. Sound & Vision senses color, tone, light, and activity, and projects upon the wearer’s skin patterns of light and color that reflect the data gathered.

The necklace, earrings, and brooch are made from liquid crystal glass and backlit by light emitting diodes. Light and color from the LEDs projects through the LCG, displaying patterns onto the skin of the user. Hyper-sonic sound technology projects music and tones from the earrings solely to the user.

Project advised by Yves Behar & Noah Murphy-Reinhertz and sponsored by Gucci.
