MEET AND RETREAT

摘要

AN INNOVATIVE SEATING SOLUTION IS PROVIDING PASSENGERS WITH PLACES THAT CAN BE USED EITHER FOR QUIET REFLECTION OR AS EFFICIENT WORKSPACES. Today's airports are, by their very nature, busy and noisy environments. Travellers end up asking themselves: is there a place for undisturbed concentration? Where can I reflect on important decisions or have a quiet moment? Where can I escape for an intimate telephone call or a one-on-one chat? The classic business lounge is not necessarily the answer. Vitra has come up with a solution that will delight travellers and airport operators alike. Workbays, designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, create an easy-to-use and highly efficient habitat in closed lounges or public areas near to gates. A system of organically shaped, cell-like configurations makes a wide variety of formations possible.
