What’s New

In our "Talk to THE FUTURE OF WORK" interview series, the younger generation has its say. How they work? What makes them successful? What motivates them, but also what are their fears and anxieties about the future of work. What challenges and changes are we all facing, and how can we handle them? Are their perceptions really that different from those of their more senior peers? We recently spoke to Kilian Kaminski , the co-founder and CEO of Austrian start-up refurbed, about the future of work, what makes the corporate culture at refurbed so special, and what drives him both professionally and personally. "At refurbed we are working for a purpose – every day we are doing our part to make the world a better place with refurbished products. This purpose driven mentality creates this unique positive atmosphere, where colleagues are one big refurbed family”, says Kilian Kaminski. The interview in full length here: https://futureofwork.bene.com/interview_kilian_kaminski-en/ Thank you Kilian to join our talk series, your insights were extremely inspiring! #futureofwork #thefutureofwork #talktothefutureofwork #newwork #newnormal #startups #refurbed

NOOXS Think Tank - Homey mini-rooms for temporary use Areas dedicated to communication are important because new ideas and stimuli only come about through interaction with others. Of course, even the most communicative employee needs a place for retreat and concentration from time to time. In order to create functional spaces and places suited for various activities within the open space, room-in-room systems that do not impinge on the building’s structure and are installed in a modular and flexible way are the ideal solution. NOOXS Think Tank from Bene (Design by PearsonLloyd ) creates a place to retreat to whenever it’s needed. The room-in-room system provides the ideal place for focused work. Designed for modular and flexible use, this smart room module can now be adapted even more specifically to the customer’s requirements with an extended range of features.

Our tool of choice on this mission is innovation. For us, innovation is not a destination, but a means to an end: a means to better organisations, more relevant products, services, and functional working environments. A means to a more livable and sustainable future. That's what we´re fighting for. Every day. Well, most of us four days a week”, quips Pascal Gemmer.

Projects we love: Phoron Consulting / Austria Phoron Consulting, an international SAP consulting firm, has four locations worldwide – one of which is in Vienna. The task was to redesign the 500 m2 branch and create a workplace setting that offers staff space to concentrate on their work as well as zones for interaction. This overall concept includes ergonomic workstations that bring variety and movement to everyday office life, thanks to the Lift Desks. Their height can be adjusted quickly and easily to enable spontaneous alternation between sitting and standing at work. Opportunities for interaction are offered by meeting rooms and various communication zones. A total eye-catcher: the Mosswall from Florawall GmbH. The green plant wall ensures a good indoor climate, where staff can work in a healthy and productive way. “In Bene we’ve found a partner that not only sold us furniture, but also implemented an integrated spatial and office concept for us", says Ernst Klaus, Managing Consultant at Phoron Consulting.

SMART OFFICE by Bene - The digitalisation of the office Agility defines the working environment today. Employees are organising their work in an increasingly flexible manner in terms of location and time. This fact, along with the current challenges of the pandemic, such as physical distancing and hygiene measures, require new office concepts. Digitalisation is one of the key factors for the economy to make a successful comeback. SMART OFFICE by Bene is a holistic tool for optimising office space: Employees can reserve and book work and meeting spaces flexibly and easily via app or web. The resulting optimised user experience leads to increased productivity and an improved economic efficiency of the office space. "Thanks to new and smart technologies, we can make the office more efficient, more intelligent and more user-oriented. With SMART OFFICE by Bene, we have developed in cooperation with Thing-it and GMS Global Media Services GmbH a data-driven office concept that offers numerous advantages for employers and employees", says Michael Fried, Managing director for Sales, Marketing & Innovation at Bene.

Projects we love: Fill / Austria Fill manufactures high-tech equipment and is a global market and innovation leader. “If you are seeking the best solution, shape your future with Fill” – this is the guiding principle for the company’s 900 employees. Fill´s departments of high-level language programming and research & development are based in an office building with a total floor area of 1,500 m2, which has recently been redesigned by Bene. We have talked to CEO Andreas Fill about his visions for the future of work. "Artificial intelligence is ultimately just software. Without input, without creative stimulation from a human, it is just a series of zeros and ones, purely a collection of soulless data. For innovation and the development of new ideas, however, what’s needed is the collaboration and inspiration that comes from a team. Humans are able to work outside the norms, to explore new pathways. Artificial intelligence is always based on an algorithm which does not allow for this unpredictability of new ideas," says Andreas Fill.

Interview with Rosie Haslem about HOW TO WORK NOW. "The experience of the pandemic certainly won’t lead to a complete ‘death of the office’, but it should mean the death of the office as we knew it. Most of us will still want and need a place to go to, at least some of the time, to do the things that we can’t do as well remotely (including just being around other people). But this needn’t be an ‘office’ in the traditional sense."

THE NEW NORMAL We are experiencing the biggest stress test for the concept of remote working. Even though it has not all happened voluntarily, companies see that working from home basically works, yet we also see the challenges we face when not in the office. We miss the face-to-face exchange with our colleagues as well as the interaction. Remote working and home office will remain relevant as an integral part of the office landscape even after the pandemic. At the same time, the pivotal role of the office is being reinforced. Modern office concepts are characterised by more communal areas that can be used flexibly and can be easily adapted. "The importance of the office as a hub for information, corporate culture and social interaction is growing,” explains Michael Fried Managing Director, Sales, Marketing & Innovation at Bene. "Offices must convey a sense of security, orientation and trust in order to continue to be inspiring places for people to meet and be creative in the future.” More inspiration about THE CORE by Bene - how the pandemic reshapes the office: https://bene.com/en/the-core-by-bene-en/ Photos by Becker Lacour #covid19 #officeofthefuture #futureofwork #thefutureofwork #newwork #newnormal #RemoteWork #remoteworking #inspiringoffices

SPOTTED: Nice article on officebase about our very latest concept - THE CORE by Bene and how the pandemic reshapes the office. The office is the physical core of an organisation, the heart of a company. It is where people, concepts, ideas, and things come together. A space where spontaneous social interaction – the seed for many creative approaches, good ideas and relationships – does not need to be organised. A space for collaborative and agile work, where shared management and fluid leadership can evolve. A space that transports the spirit, the Corporate Identity, of a company: This includes in particular the corporate culture that forms the core of the company and unites the organisation at its heart – in the "core".

Die PIXEL-Familie hat Zuwachs bekommen - mit neuen Elementen, die flexibles Arbeiten weiter unterstützen. Die PIXEL Rack-Erweiterungen bieten einen Rahmen, aus dem sofortige Projekträume entstehen, mit Tischen, Bänken und Sitzgelegenheiten aus PIXEL Boxen. PIXEL Rack ist eine ideale Lösung, um PIXEL zu verstauen und verwahren, ist aber auch ohne PIXEL ein raumstrukturierendes Element. Es kann zum Beispiel als Raumtrenner oder als Whiteboard Halterung eingesetzt werden. Ebenfalls neu im Programm sind Zubehörteile wie Stiftablage, Utensilientasse, Organisationseinsatz und Whiteboards, die in die PIXEL- und Regalkomponenten integriert werden können, um sicherzustellen, dass sowohl Arbeitsmittel als auch die besten Ideen nicht verloren gehen.
