This informs the ways in which Steelcase engages its customers and partners to result in greater value creation, and relevance in an industry that works hard to rise above a commodity mindset.” [...] [...] Workspring & the workplace of the future John F.

All mobile designers applaud your insight and vision for the future. As cube farms are rapidly being depopulated, I predict in a few years, large projects 50M-100M will be conducted by 20-30 designers, lawyers and engineers placed across continents and time zones flying to Chicago, Milan, Hong Kong, for an all day meeting at one these spirit refreshing springs. Design intelligence knows no boundaries. Thanks John, Jeffrey Bravo, Steelcase. All mobile designers applaud your insight and vision for the future.
