DOCKLANDS is the new, alternative workspace furniture ideally suited for temporary activities. A “Me-Place” that supports concentrated and focused work thanks to the clever partitioning of space and effective acoustics. DOCKLANDS is superior furniture with an emotional design quality that provides space for both employees and visitors. The integration of power connections and network access makes simple plug and play connections possible, and accessories such as lights and coat hooks provide a sense of privacy even in the smallest space. A Service Dock for printers and other office equipment, the Coat Rack and the Phone Booth complete the DOCKLANDS product family.Things can get rather hectic in the office. Telephones ring, the paper shredder whines, a beeping sounds rings out across the room from the broken coffee machine. This hustle and bustle unavoidable, especially in open-plan offices. It’s part of the job. The new DOCKLANDS product line from Bene is the answer. The small work alcoves, called Dock-In Bays, are protected bays where you can drop anchor and get some work done — a quiet mooring in a hectic office space. They act as havens and complement the workspaces available in the open-plan area. The London designers PearsonLloyd explain: “Dock-In Bays are small islands, little protected bays, where one can dock at any point in the day and withdraw into more focused work.”
DOCKLANDS – the name says it all, borrowing the phrase from urban developments in International port cities such as Hamburg, London and Melbourne. In the past years, traditional dock sites have been transformed into forward thinking and vibrant Hot Spots where the creative industries in particular have found their niche. DOCKLANDS has adopted this quality, taking the concept from its origins in city planning and resizing it to fit the office. DOCKLANDS is a place to take refuge from the normal flow of the work environment and concentrate on individual creative work.
