Work Environments: Campus and Event

This design studio at Harvard University Graduate School of Design is the first of three sponsored by the furniture company Knoll that examines, through research and design, the disruptive transformations that occur globally in environments where work takes place. Understanding the unique position of the office to both register changes within society and to actively reshape traditional hierarchies, tomorrow’s workplace must arrive with a clear attitude and outlook. This studio series attempts to explicate existing cultural trends and perspectives, using this knowledge to speculate on future scenarios and potential responses within the “worksphere.”

With this in mind, the first edition looks in depth at the United States and focuses on two interrelated domains of work: the corporate campus and the industry event.

Work Environments: Campus and Event is a Studio Report from the Spring 2015 semester at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design.

Studio made possible with the generous support of Knoll, Inc.
