Returning to Orgatec 2018 to further their ideas on the future of work, VITRA debuts the ‘soft work’ sofa system by Barber & Osgerby. It explores how hotel lobbies, cafes, airports and even parks are becoming areas of work, whilst, in reverse, offices are becoming more public. with employees not tied to specific locations as much before, places and objects that were once considered as unsuitable workstations are now the preferred choice. And the ‘soft work’ sofa exemplifies this radical transition away from the desk archetype.
