Design Features

It is a design objective to make the product less costly to own over its lifespan. It takes less time to install and reconfigure, using the minimum number of components possible, and has been designed to allow for low-cost product refresh.

Many of the cost savings come from the intelligent beam system. All items connect to the beam, so they are easy to connect and disconnect time and time again. For example, screens and wire management connect to the beams, so wiring can take place easily at installation time prior to work surfaces being installed.

When the product is clustered, the beams connect together enabling the elimination of legs and brackets. Work surfaces are designed to be smaller, enabling easy handling, and have a quick- release mechanism that allows them to be attached or disconnected quickly from the beams.

It has been made as ‘future-proof’ as possible to changes in layout and design. Key multifunctional components ensure a minimum number of redundant parts when change does occur.

Screen brackets are the same as brackets for other items, so can be reused even if the function changes. The hinged beam connector allows for change of planning style with re-use of all the under structure.

Worksurfaces can be adjusted for height by the user or facility management.

Designed from an international perspective

When Tim Wallace was 11 years old, he and his family moved from England to Pennsylvania.“The three years we spent living in Pennsylvania had a huge impact on me,” Wallace recalls. “It really broadened my horizons. I came to the US as a naive little English kid and left with my eyes opened to how big and diverse the world is.”

Living abroad was the catalyst for Wallace’s love of exploring, which has served him well as a furniture designer. “I like to gather information and learn about all the issues from as many places as possible when working on projects,” he says. “I do a lot of research before I actually start to design.”

Designing for an international market has its own set of challenges. Although working on Abak Environments crossed many cultural lines, “We came up with a set of core components that can be put together in different ways to shift the emphasis, depending on particular needs,” says Wallace. “It was a fascinating project to work on, and what we achieved was enormously satisfying.”

Wallace says that he’s part of a small group of UK designers who are trying hard to influence the industry overall. “My goal when designing furniture is to make it relevant for the way we live. It shouldn’t be exclusive or impenetrable. It needs to be accessible to everyone.”
