In 2014, Teknion teamed up with Luke Pearson and Tom Lloyd, the duo behind the renowned London-based industrial design firm PearsonLloyd, to explore design concepts that would support new workplace behaviours – such as impromptu gatherings for idea-sharing, brainstorming and feedback. Their creative collaboration resulted in a new furniture collection called Zones.
“We designed Zones to address change in the office landscape from the fixed and formal settings common today to the informal and flexible settings of the future,” says Lloyd. The result is a comprehensive series of furniture products that addresses the needs for focus, collaborative and workshop areas within the office environment.
“Its breadth of offerings across multiple workplace categories, all with a consistent design language, makes it unique,” says Lloyd. “Zones also addresses the growing importance of hospitality spaces as a new form of workplace.”
