Appearing as a series of sections of a volume, the system is differentiated according to the functional needs of the space: working, resting, meeting, classes, or events. The flexibility of the coworking is enhanced by the layout that takes the form of ceiling, partition, shelves. The light that enters from the glazed ceiling percolates and diffuses through these elements – which function as a device that continuously reacts to the ever-changing light conditions.
