Re: [Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

No, they typically cannot be reconfigured by managers or admins; you need a trained installer. The cost you cite is very exaggerated over drywall. Yes, the initial expense is considerably higher than drywall, but if you also factor in construction time + office downtime, the cost is more like 3X,

Re: [Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

Right...but are these demountable walls, like by DIRTT, actually feasible to re-arrange easily by community managers or administrative types? And while they can be paid as furniture, their cost is something like 10x (?) more than traditional drywall. Jerome www.BLANKSPACES.com > On Jun 26,

[Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

While a more expensive initial investment, I'd seriously consider a product like DIRTT. Several reasons: First, the product can be depreciated like furniture, installation (including electrical work) can happen over a weekend or after hours with almost no downtime or disruption to your

Re: [Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

I would like to second this. We have glass fronts on the small meeting rooms in Amsterdam, primarily for architectural reasons -- Dutch canal houses (which is what the Amsterdam location is in) tend to the narrow and deep, and get their light and ventilation from one side only. The fishbowl

I appreciate everyone weighing in with the different options (and downsides) related to the glass-walled offices. I am now reconsidering my original plan. Thank you! Lauren On Mon, Apr 3, 2017 at 12:14 PM, Jerome Chang wrote: > I agree x100…if it’s glass all the way

Re: [Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

I agree x100…if it’s glass all the way around. I’ve been using glass on just one wall and the feedback has been excellent. I also use partial height, either lower or upper half. Basically, use them judiciously - your wallet will thank you as well JEROME CHANG <> talk to us: (323) 330-9505 <>

Re: [Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

I'm gonna toss a perspective in here that hasn't been mentioned: Glass walls *can* look amazing, though I hear from a lot of people that they hate feeling like they're in a fishbowl. I personally think it's a weird architectural hack for trying to bend office-demand into a misunderstood open

Tempered glass gets very expensive, Ask for store-front type glass with aluminum frame around it, it would be a quarter of the tempered glass price. Hasan Mirjan SphereMail.co On Tuesday, March 21, 2017 at 1:30:21 PM UTC-7, Lauren McDaniel wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm exploring the possibility of

I'd suggest finding a local makerspace nearby and having them price and do it. Then it becomes more human than just a glass wall. If you run the options by your members, $4K (or $10K) for a 2-person quality phone booth built by localMakerspace that goes inThisSpot or $4K or ($10K) for _

[Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

I've never sourced glass walls/offices but I'd be curious to know if you *really* need the expensive glass option or if you could build out with drywall but splurge on nice glass doors? This way you save some money, can have power on the walls and still get lots of light flowing in and out.

[Coworking] Re: Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

Lauren, we were able to find some used, originally manufactured by DIRTT. They were about $2K/office used, but I think that's close to 10 - 20% of what they'd be new. You might check your favorite, well-supported used supplier. These were a bear to put up, but they look gorgeous finished. (If
