Merging Technology and Workspace Design Technology is the perfect complement to physical meeting areas -- an idea that full-service office furniture dealer Business Office Systems ( BOS ) likes to promote to its customers. Toward that end, the company recently hosted an event at its Roselle, Ill., showroom to showcase how technology fits into modern workspace design. Incorporating technology into office space design isn’t always how BOS has done things in the more than 70 years it has been in business. But having recognized the need, it responded by creating a Workspace Digital division, which combines design consultancy services with furniture and technology procurement to help clients align and maximize their physical and digital spaces, as BOS CMO George Lucas Pfeiffer told me at the event. “Technology is worthless if no one is using it,” he said. “That’s why we love dynamic technology and an agile approach to design.” Through its Workspace Digital program, BOS works with technology partners to show customers the kinds of things they can do in office environments and how they can best use their space. And because work, technology, and workspace trends are constantly changing, BOS puts a strong emphasis on adaptability in its designs. Designs must be adaptable because workspace needs will be different in two to three years, Pfeiffer said. From the event, I got a good look into how the physical and digital are coming together in modern workspaces. Page through this slideshow to get a better understanding of how these two worlds can be bridged.
