PROJECT TITLE

Framferd

This project explores the intersection of human experience and workplace design, focusing on accommodating individuals with ADHD. It investigates how design can create supportive environments and transform traditional work-spaces to meet diverse employee needs. Societal norms regarding prolonged sitting are challenged by exploring alternative seating options and promoting spatial designs that don’t dictate posture or movement. The goal of reimagining workspaces with versatile seating and features like partition walls is to initiate conversations about the impact of considerate design.
