# Remote Office Visualization Tools Visual Office Provides Colleagues a Virtual Floor Plan By Grace Mahas | Published 2020-03-30 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/visual-office References: [betalist](https://betalist.com/startups/visual-office-for-slack?utm_source=newsletter_mailer&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=roundup) & [visualoffice.app](https://www.visualoffice.app/?ref=betalist) Visual Office was designed o help [teams working remotely](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remotepulse) better navigate and understand their virtual workspaces. The tool provides a visualization of each member of a team, so employees will know if a coworker is in the "break room," in the "lunchroom" or focused in a "silent zone." Users can project their status alongside their virtual desk, for example, a "do not disturb status" status. This makes it easier for coworkers to know when its acceptable to chat with coworkers without breaking their "flow." Visual Office can be integrated through the [Slack app](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoom-workplace1) and is ideal for smaller teams between 5 and 50 employees to stay connected while working from home.
