Description
WorkOut is a global outdoor workspace network designed for remote workers and students. It combats isolation by encouraging social interaction and global networking. Facilitating work and leisure, its biophilic design promotes mental wellness. Set in locations like parks and rooftops, WorkOut repurposes spaces as creative hubs, fostering passion and inspiration from nature. With a modular design, units can be tailored with amenities and rented for various durations, even for group activities.
Statement of the jury
Working outside in nature and still being comfortable and protected from bad weather - this is made possible by the interesting WorkOut concept in the form of a modular room installation. The cleverly thought-out system can be expanded as required, blends perfectly into natural environments with its organic design language and aesthetics, and becomes an eye-catcher here.
