Activity Based Working creates spaces that reflect the needs of the people who use them.
AT REIMAGINE, WE DEVELOP SPACES FOR THE PEOPLE THAT USE THEM. THERE ARE NO TEMPLATES OR GRID LAYOUTS, JUST SIMPLE, INTUITIVE FLOOR PLANS THAT ARE CUSTOMIZED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF YOUR BUSINESS. THIS APPROACH IS GOVERNED BY THE CONCEPT OF ACTIVITY BASED WORKING, A TECHNIQUE THAT USES HYBRID SPACES TO ENHANCE EFFICIENCY AND PRODUCTIVITY. WHAT IS ACTIVITY BASED WORKING?
Reimagine your office using a progressive design approach called Activity Based Working ABW). A post-pandemic workforce no longer wants to work in a traditional rank-and-file box of cubicles. Besides, yesterday’s offices never worked well: studies show that at any given time, pre-pandemic, less than half of the desks in a typical office were occupied. That’s a lot of wasted space!

Starting from the beginning (a very good place to start!), we get to know your team, and how they need a space to function. Instead of forcing employees into small, identical boxes, Activity Based Working is about creating spaces that reflect the needs of their users. Your team’s work style should guide your workspace’s final form. Reimagine balances today’s needs and your plans for the future, to ensure your workspace always feels like your team’s very own natural habitat.
ROUNDHOUSE, EDMONTON, AB
THE THREE CS Our goal is to provide an interior experience that’s as unique and varied as your business. Over the course of the design process, we develop a clear model of how you operate, ensuring your values and brand are represented in the final design.
These areas are the modern equivalent of the water cooler. Fun, lively, and informal, these are places where people can bump into one another and strike up casual conversations. By keeping the mood light, these areas encourage team building and provide opportunities for collaboration and cross-pollination.
These casual meeting areas are a place for both formal and informal meetings. Whetheryour team is getting together for a quick 15 minute meeting or a longer brainstorming session, these breakaway spaces are comfortable and easily accessible, giving enough privacy for a group conversation without feeling closed off.
These are the quiet areas where employees can find peace and privacy. Depending on your workflow, these spaces can range from use-asneeded hot desks, to assigned seating, or a combination of the two. Whatever the arrangement, concentration areas allow you to focus and get work done.

COLLABORATION SPACE
Here ideas can flow freely between departments and floors, creating a connected atmosphere.
CONCENTRATION SPACE
CHATTER SPACE
We create a successful design for you by getting to know you. Our designs employ a variety of spaces that are tailored to specific functions. These areas spaces can be categorized into the three Cs of space: Chatter Space, Collaboration Space, and Concentration Space.
Regardless of the type of business or style of building, our design focus remains the same: How is it going to be used?
GOING FORWARD It doesn’t matter what kind of business, Activity Based Working begins by asking “how is this space going to get used?” Our team will leverage ABW to ensure that you get the most out of your space. By creating spaces that suit the behaviours and needs of your team, we open up new opportunities to boost productivity, connection and morale.
By looking at how people need a space to function, rather than telling them how they should use it, Activity Based Working promotes productivity. Edmonton 10225 100 Avenue Edmonton, Alberta T5J 0A1 Canada +1 780.429.3977
