For those companies that have large conference meetings, this table is ideal for collaboration. An architect named Clive Wilkinson designed this new office for an Internet advertising company Barbarian Group in New York City. This table sits within 23,000-square-feet of space that builds around an amazing, 1,100-foot-long table. This snake-like, winding white desk brings open-plan organization to an extreme for creative firms. With a table like this, the possibilities are endless for collaboration. Its purpose is to encourage communication and social engagement with employees to brainstorm and plan creativity. This long office would make the best conference experience within a professional environment. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## 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 - **Infinitely Collaborative Office Tables:** A trend in office furniture design that emphasizes collaboration and social engagement. - **Open-plan Organization:** A trend in office workspace design that emphasizes open communication and social engagement among employees. - **Creative Conference Spaces:** A trend in conference room design that emphasizes creative collaboration among employees. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Office Furniture:** An industry that has the potential for disruptive innovation by creating more collaborative and social furniture designs. - **Office Workspace Design:** An industry that has the potential for disruptive innovation by developing more open and collaborative office space designs. - **Conference Room Design:** An industry that has the potential for disruptive innovation by incorporating more creativity and collaboration into conference room designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Skeletal Industrial Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/landr-dining-and-conference-table.md) - [Industrial Shapeshifting Table Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jointable.md) - [Multilevel Minimalist Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-office-table.md) - [Unconventional Awkwardly Seated Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uncomfortable-table.md) - [Multifuntional Modular Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-transformer-table.md) - [Mountainous Modular Office Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summit-furniture.md) - [Minimalist Clutter-Free Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parallel-work-table.md) - [Collaborative Business Conference Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/google-series-one.md) - [Customizable Workplace Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trailo-office-table-program.md)
