This Fold Yard typography of Benoit Challand has a touch of whimsy to be sure, but it also suggests a way to break out of the box by customizing each station at a given place of work.
Who knows: these quickly-customized corrugated cardboard cubes (joined with modular plastic pieces) might be a good recipe for helping employees feel less like a hive of drones and more like individual workers with independent value and personal flexibility.
