Re: [Coworking] Re: Unisex Toilets

I agree. As an architect, I know the codes generally dictate what equal number of fixtures across both genders. But given various other issues, like a family bathroom, other genders, nursing, etc, at least one unisex can be useful. ...and the codes generally allow for reducing the total

Hi Vass! I also am very interested in your thesis! I'm working on my PhD and using coworking sites as my sample group. I'd love to read it if you'd be willing to share it! On Tuesday, March 11, 2014 at 8:31:00 PM UTC-5, Vass S. wrote: > > Hi EveryoneI'm working towards presenting my

[Coworking] Re: Master Thesis on CoWorking

Hi Nabill! I'm also working on this topic for my dissertation, so I understand your question all too well! First, let me ask: Why coworking? What drew your interest? For me, it's all about the physical environment. I'm an interior designer by profession, and I'm researching the physical

[Coworking] Re: Student Project on Coworking

Hi Rabiah! I would be very interested in reading your thesis! My background is interior design, and I'm currently a PhD candidate and researching almost the exact same thing. My dissertation is going to be researching the physical attributes of third place environments that contribute to work

[Coworking] Re: What are the benefits of a co-working community?

Why do you think it might be a fit for you? That's where you want to start. I started and run a small coworking community for women. In my research I've seen two basic types of coworking: real-estate based for immediate revenue gain and community-based for longer term, but generally more

[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

[Coworking] Re: Unisex Toilets

My first thought is to check the building code. Your first obligation is to make sure you meet the minimum number of fixtures per sex. If making changes to your current fixture count violates the code, then it's a moot point. If, however, you can make changes, then I say go for it. After

IKEA makes great height adjustable legs that are very affordable.. plus if the height adjustable trend changes, so can the tables. On Wednesday, April 11, 2012 at 1:38:10 PM UTC-5, Beth Michael Fine wrote: > > Looking for a bar height cowork tables preferrably white at a great price. > > What

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,

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] Seeking recommendations for glass walls/offices

That's great! Yes, I'm not surprised it took more than a weekend to install; reconfiguring existing product takes a bit more management than new product straight from the factory! I'm glad to hear it works for you. Sound absorption has greatly improved in these wall systems. For future

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

Hi Maureen, We were able to find about 11 DIRTT offices second-hand at $2K/office. After reconfiguring, we were left with lots of wall sections and insufficient parts to make more offices, but we got 10 offices out of them! They’re really quite nice looking and I was surprised by their sound

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

Got it. 10x was a guess. What would be the proper #x if just the upfront cost? I think the construction time is an indirect cost that depends upon the # of future reconfigurations, if any. And yes, sprinkler heads is a huge unknown difficulty and cost, as is re-routing HVAC. I wouldn’t
