# Community-Creating Workspaces This Futuristic Office Design Lets Strangers Work Side by Side By Alyson Wyers | Published 2014-06-17 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/futuristic-office References: [fastcoexist](http://www.fastcoexist.com/3031475/a-network-of-transparent-futuristic-offices-created-for-the-mobile-urban-workforce) This futuristic office space is intended for the mobile urban workforce. Conceived by London-based design student Julie Burdou, WW is a network of tiny offices that could be spread across the city, allowing mobile employees to stop in and get work done for a few minutes when they are on the go. The RSA Student Design Award-winning concept allows workers to connect as a community without a definitive location or staff. The futuristic office spaces function similarly to today's internet cafes, but are designed for more human interaction. The structure consists of a simple glass wall or cube, allowing everyone to see each other while they work. Rather than feeling isolated at Starbucks, the community-building office spaces allow people to connect more. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.8/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 10% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Community-building Workspaces:** This trend represents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the office design industry to create flexible workspaces that foster collaboration and networking among mobile employees. - **Mobile Workforce Solutions:** This trend presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for technology companies to develop mobile apps and platforms that facilitate on-the-go work and provide access to community workspaces. - **Human-centric Office Design:** This trend offers a disruptive innovation opportunity for architects and designers to create office spaces that prioritize human interaction, connection, and community-building. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Office Design:** This industry can leverage the trend of community-building workspaces to develop innovative office layouts and furniture solutions that enhance collaboration and connectivity. - **Technology:** This industry can capitalize on the trend of mobile workforce solutions by creating mobile apps and platforms that enable seamless remote work and access to community workspaces. - **Architecture and Design:** This industry can explore the trend of human-centric office design to create innovative and aesthetically pleasing work environments that foster human interaction, well-being, and productivity. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Contemporary Dynamic Workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/officetopia.md) - [Quirky Solo Office Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/work-capsules.md) - [Connective Remote Work Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/open-studio1.md) - [Workstation Projection Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/work-wall.md) - [Modern Portable Work Stations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/worknic.md) - [Modular Work Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mespace-workstation.md) - [Multi-Purpose Workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kokuyo.md) - [Contemporary interactive workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-workspace.md) - [Mobile Professional Workstation Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobile-desk-divider.md)
