An article exploring the difference (good and bad) between cubicles and open office plan.
Forthe last fifteen years, cubicles have been slowly disappearing from the work environment. What was originally developed to put character into assembly line types of offices is now considered soulless and impersonal. The open office model replaces the cube system as the best formula for workplace synergy, aiming to improve collaboration and the exchange of ideas. Open offices and flexible workspaces are spreading all over the world. In the United States alone, seventy percent (70%) of all offices have low or no dividing walls, with information technology firms as early advocates of the open office model.
Open Spaces: The Good and The Bad

Our versatile line of glass and laminate markerboards
We didnt invent the markerboard, but we are coming up with exciting new ways to use them every day!
Markerboards have been gaining considerable popularity in recent years due to their fun and functional capabilities. Markerboards are being specified on everything from full size panels, segmented panels and even full size desks and table tops! Use these tools for organization, collaboration and presentations.
Our beautiful glass markerboards are available in white or even black which looks especially sharp when used with fluorescent markers. Our glass markerboards are very thin and sleek, not at all the traditional bulky framed variety. These are available in an array of sizes so they can be used virtually anywhere. Glass cleans perfectly with wet or dry cleaners and is a great solution for anywhere you want a functional place to share information with coworkers or clients.

6 Things to Consider
Space Risers take up valuable desk space. With gen UP you keep 100% of your worksurface.
Price Most risers cost the same as a completely new gen UP desk, some cost much more.
3: Hassle Most standard worksurfaces are 22 to 24 deep, most risers start at 28 to 30, requiring a custom made worksurface.
Safety Risers that are fixed height have been reported to wobble and sway. Risers that are height adjustable have an inherent mechanical attribute of moving out towards the user in an arced movement, introducing instability, while pushing you away from your desk.
Function Most risers have 2 options, up or down. gen UP gives you the ability to program 4 heights, or you can manually control the up and down function with the press of a button, making your worksurface the exact height for your needs.
Durability gen UP bases can lift 350 lbs and our 3 legged option can lift 525 lbs, just try finding a riser with that capability.
We adjust to your height, we adjust
