8 minutes shapes flexible + sustainable concept office with movable objects

‘concept office’ by german-based studio 8 minutes combines different perspectives and establishes a holistic view that enables a new definition of the physical structures of office spaces. rooms are set in motion and walls are activated as visual surfaces for collective thought processes. mobile and freely combinable objects enable an alternative usage of space and maximum flexibility.all images courtesy of max feldhoff

new forms of cooperation

the collection of 8 minutes emphasizes regional and ecological manufacturing, short transport routes, and transparent value creation. through diverse spatial constellations and a productive combination of analog and digital workflows, a transformation of both the working methods and the resulting productivity is made possible. moreover, by increasing situational awareness spaces can be used more effectively: during the day a place for innovative ideas, workshops, meetings, or creative processes and in the evening a place for events, galleries and exhibitions.

by launching the ‘concept office’, the first product series is released. future office spaces should be more efficient and lasting in terms of work, but also in terms of product design. increasingly decentral working and more complex working structures pose new challenges for the design of modern office spaces and require contemporary concepts that rethink not only the spaces people work in but also the way in which they work together. up-to-date concepts
