ABSTRACT:
A unique space partition module creates private, three-dimensional work stations or rooms in a completely open office space. The module provides workers with the sensation of having their very own private room, even within extremely large, open office plans, thereby alleviating "close work" fatigue. The office module includes two sidewall panels which are positioned in a generally vertical, oppositely facing orientation, and are supported in a spaced apart and freestanding condition. A ceiling has opposite end edges connected with the upper edges of the sidewall panels, and spans the sidewall panels. The office module has a height and girth which are substantially smaller than the respective dimensions of the open office space, so that the office module can be easily transported and placed at any desired location within the room. The ceiling is positioned well above the head height of the average user, and forms a canopy, which in conjunction with the sidewall panels, defines an unobstructed, three-dimensional workstation, that has a degree of privacy for more efficient work performance, without evoking a sense of claustrophobia.
