How you can encourage<br />
agility and creativity.<br />
Workshops, training sessions, meetings, project work – the demands placed on the space<br />
available for teams and for collaboration are diverse. Here are four agile assistants for modern<br />
creative spaces.<br />
spyn folding table:<br />
Communication in motion.<br />
With spyn, Wiesner-Hager has developed a mobile<br />
folding table system that caters to the mostly<br />
very limited space available in <strong>office</strong>s thanks<br />
to its flexible range of applications. With this<br />
mobile folding table, changing configurations<br />
quickly to suit the particular application<br />
intended becomes child's play. Tables that are<br />
not needed can simply be swivelled and parked in a row to save space. spyn is also offered<br />
as a mobile standing table. Shorter meetings in particular are often held while standing<br />
in order to infuse added agility into project groups and teams. This facilitates interaction<br />
with visualisation media and multimedia technology. It also promotes free thinking, creative brainstorming<br />
and a change of perspective. With the standing table, too, the patented swivel mechanism of the table top<br />
quickly creates space when the tables are no longer needed.<br />
motiv – s:<br />
Arrive – sit down – get started.<br />
The compact <strong>office</strong> chair motiv_s with its low upholstered back was<br />
developed specifically for agile, temporary work settings with different<br />
users. The round shape of the seat combined with an oval<br />
upholstered back ensures high seating comfort, maximum<br />
freedom of movement and active back support – even during<br />
dynamic position changes and lateral movements. The<br />
design of motiv_s plays with charming design references<br />
from the history of swivel chairs and combines them with<br />
a state-of-the-art mechanical concept for automatic weight<br />
detection. No further adjustment is<br />
needed as the mechanics automatically<br />
adjust the backrest pressure.<br />
spyn sit-stand:<br />
Agile, flexible, intuitive.<br />
Anyone who pays attention to how their body feels will notice<br />
immediately when standing becomes too strenuous and it is time<br />
for a change of posture. The spyn sit-stand provides valuable assistance<br />
here. Being a light, movable stool, it can be easily pulled<br />
up into any standing situation and used in different positions.<br />
The curved base plate made of slip-resistant natural cork keeps<br />
the user constantly in motion and prevents them from returning<br />
to a typically static sitting position. The gas spring enables the<br />
seat height to be adjusted with ease. To sum up: the spyn sitstand<br />
promotes agility during meetings and encourages<br />
intuitive changes of position.<br />
spyn whiteboard:<br />
Your agile idea catcher.<br />
The spyn whiteboard was especially developed to meet the<br />
needs of creative working and communication settings. It is<br />
fully mobile to support rapid changes in task. Its centrepiece<br />
is the double-sided whiteboard. Measuring 180 x 80 cm and<br />
weighing just 7 kg, it is incredibly flexible to use – either<br />
freestanding with the matching stool or leant against or hung<br />
on the wall. The board has two magnetic edges to hold pens,<br />
board erasers and flipchart holders.<br />
