Beer company Lienenkugel highlights the work-from-home culture that has been prominent over the last few years after the pandemic with the new Canoebicle. It is a river-ready boat that meets the standards of corporate culture. As the name suggests, the design is a blend of a canoe and a cubicle, functioning as a boat that features onboard Wi-Fi and waterproof speakers.
It also comes with a desk and an ergonomic chair to make working much more comfortable. The boat is complete with an umbrella to ensure that there is no glare on the monitor screen when working on the water. The company will be offering the boats to rent for $16 USD hourly as of July 3rd.
