I'm currently in a research studio that is looking at the open office plan; as part of this, I am to use fictional sources to support the nature of social interaction in the given plan/tpology. A relatively short-lived office layout typology was the 'Office Landscape' developed by the Quickborner Team of Germany. It made its way to the US in the late 60's, but lasted less than a decade, if that. There is a lot of references (pictures, plans, etc.) but I am having a difficult time finding any fictional portrayals of this. Movies, television shows, books, etc.
Does anyone know of any fictions that portray this office setting?
Images are attached.
Thanks for any help!

Office Landscape [Quickborner Team] late 60's - 70's
