Media mediates our

relationships change”

17. Social space
• Social space for informal learning through
interactions with co-workers as innovation is
fundamentally social. Ideas arise as much out
of casual conversations as they do out of
formal meetings….the best ideas in any
workplace arise out of casual contacts among
different groups in the same company.

20. Personal Space
• Personal Space for knowledge workers
requiring a different environment to stimulate
creativity or individual time for concentration,
reflection and learning away from continuous
office interruptions. This space will also be
available to guests and visitors

23. Team Space
• Team space for collaborative learning by
teams of knowledge workers. During certain
phases of collaborative teamwork, such as the
starting or creation stage, teams need
protection from intrusion. As the knowledge
commons is removed from immediate work
areas of researchers, interruptions can be
minimised

25. Fresh & Light

26. Connections
& Power

27. Agile

28. Rule of 3
• No more than three walls so that there is never full
enclosure and the space is multifaceted rather than just
open.
• No fewer than three points of focus so that the “stand-and-
deliver” model gives way to increasingly varied groups
learning and presenting together (which by the way
requires a radical rethinking of furniture).
• Ability to accommodate three teachers/adults with their
children. The old standard size of about 30 students in a
box robbed children of so many effective practices; these
larger spaces allow for better alternatives.
