Flexible Wall System
Architectural Product Design
2015-2019
Deployed at scale 2022
With the opening of Google’s Bay View and Gradient Canopy campuses , we are able to share some of our studio’s architectural product design work for their campus development projects.
Nicknamed “Trapezoid,” it is a wall partition system that is part of Google’s flexible workspace solution - one that can be reconfigured based upon the evolving needs of the user.
We hope that it will bring joy to its users.
