Park – a prototype for New Work
How can ongoing transitions in the working world be used for new forms of social coexistence and co-working? This question, or challenge, was the central theme of a participatory spatial installation by Team Wien in summer 2017, when a parking lot at the edge of Vienna’s Naschmarkt was used for such a public experiment. Team Wien developed and built a wooden structure to create free to use workspaces for anyone in Vienna. One of the provided infrastructures was an area for wood constructions, where the sudden workshop, together with passers-by, built the furniture for Park . The idea behind the project was to highlight the potential of urban commons and non-profit spaces.
The Park series consists of three basic modules in different sizes that can be stacked or plugged together, allowing for countless combinations and ways of utilization. Individually, each piece can be used as stools, boxes, shelves or room dividers.
Park series: Park Module S, Park Module M, Park Module L
