INFORM Contract and BuzziSpace present the useable CoWork lounge at IDS Vancouver for attendees to retreat to a quiet zone to catch up on emails, make a phone call, charge devices or have a meeting. The lounge will showcase furniture, lighting and acoustic solutions and workplace options for the rapidly growing trend of co-working for nomadic workers. 

Due to the new ways of working, changes in the office real estate landscapes result in a higher demand for flexible working spaces. “In light of CBRE’s Americas Occupier Survey Report 2018, we believe that the popularity of co-working is a response to rising real-estate cost and the surge towards leasing flexibility, both in our local market and beyond,” says Yvonne Littlewood, Workplace Strategy Consultant for CBRE. “We expect the co-working model to build even more momentum in the coming three years.” 

BuzziSpace understands the need for creating a range of flexible microenvironments within a space, providing people with the choice of where to work depending on individual wants and various tasks. INFORM Contract and BuzziSpace teamed up to create the CoWork lounge for people to experience the mobile office, varied meeting areas, and focused workspaces outside of the traditional office space.

The CoWork booth will include acoustic retreat zones, such as the BuzziBooth for focused work and the BuzziHood to take phone calls. Additionally, the lounge will also feature a picnic table meeting area, acoustic wall panels, and acoustic lighting options. Experience the CoWork lounge, booth 917 at IDS Vancouver.

INFORM Interiors is hosting IDS Vancouver’s opening party night on Thursday, September 20 and the tradeshow runs until Sunday, September 23. Visit IDS Vancouver for more information.
