Why Collaborate?

Collaborative spaces in education trickled down from corporate “flex/open workspaces.” They were designed based on the understanding that interactivity and collaboration in small groups produces stronger solutions that would have not been reached individually and encourages sharing of research for enhanced learning. Further, it encourages trust building, communication, practical learning/ application, acceptance and enhances problem solving skills.

These rooms are relatively inexpensive, usually not exceeding $6,000-$10,000 for the entire space.

Collaborative Learning: Support for the Expanding Trend

Collaboration affects personality: increases openness, conscientiousness, agreeableness, trust, interactivity and stability

Teamwork strengthens community bonds, socialization and communication

Collaboration increases measures of achievement in educational settings (assessments)


Where is the Collaboration Space going?

Educational clients are moving toward pre-packed, expandable, scalable and future-proof systems. The more flexible with regard to space, users, time to access and connectivity, the more useful, efficient and effective the space will be.

Aside from education, the huddle space began in flexible office spaces in corporate environments- for the same reason explained above and will continue to grow in this market. The definition of a huddle space seems less defined in this market because individuals are using them for smaller meetings and video-conferencing collaboration as well- which is not what they were original designed for, but the flexibility, again, is what makes them so useful and in demand. The healthcare market has also seen an increase in demand for small collaborative spaces with videoconference capabilities.
