Armature
CubeOffice System
The AI Armature system consists of several components: The Tracery, WorkWalls, Pod, CubeOffice and Artifacts. These components, together, make it possible for semi-custom environments of architectural-scale to be crafted out of modular manufactured furniture elements. This radically reduces the necessary amount of built-in-place leasehold improvements and facilitates getting projects finished sooner while allowing over 80 to 90 percent of the users investment to go with them when they move. High quality environments that are flexible day-to-day and can be easily retrofitted into a wide variety of different buildings are made possible by this system. These components provide solutions across the entire range of modern office requirements: individual workspaces, team spaces and large group interactive spaces all incorporating media technology augmentation. The configuration mix between these types of spaces can be adjusted on several time and level-of-effort scales allowing flexibility and reconfiguration in real-time, medium term, as well as, for long term setups. Virtually all of these reconfigurations can be done by the user with a few simple tools. Other than AI, I am not aware of any manufacture in the world that can say this. There are many manufactures that make more products but these are variations on a single type and do not adequately address flexibility, mobility and the full range of work modalities that is the hallmark of AIs work.
