Living Office helps people customize
their methods, tools, and places of work to
express and enable shared character and
purpose. It is based on what is fundamental
to all and evolves continuously in response
to change. It is a more natural and desirable
workplace that fosters greater connection,
creativity, productivity, and, ultimately, greater
prosperity for all.
Locale helps organizations utilize and manage open office
plans with a system that enables people to seamlessly transition
between working together and alone, and in seated or
standing postures. By removing visual and physical obstacles
and condensing the architectural scale of an open office plan
into a tightly knit neighborhood, Locale helps people stay better
connected to their work and to each other.

In recent decades, productivity has become increasingly reliant
on people working together. Many successful organizations are
considering individuals in the context of their groups and want to
develop office layouts where high-performance teams can work
more fluidly and with more variety.
