This project is a form and joint study, in saying so, there is not final product, rather a compilation of different ideas that might lead to a solution. What is shown is my process of inspiration from origami, kirigami (art of cutting paper), and research from Steelcase. This project started with a problem that needed to be solved.
Problem:
With the increased trend of open plan off ices, there is a lack of private spaces where people can go to get away from the bustle and noise of the workplace. There is a need to be able to have a space separate where a person can focus on what he or she needs to do.

Focus:
With the problem in mind, I wanted to create a flexible system that can be altered to the user’s needs
