As Lucija Spiljak/Poslovni Dnevnik writes on the 11th of June, 2020, the Zagreb company Dizz Concept, which became famous on both Croatian and foreign markets with its award-winning pop-up kitchen concept, has now presented yet another new product called Office Shell.
Office Shell is an innovative workstation that provides isolation and privacy to employees who are working in open-ended offices. The unit is about two metres in diameter and occupies less than four square metres in total. The team from this particular Zagreb company has invested around 300,000 kuna in the project and worked hard on it for about a year, and they’re already receiving orders.
The director of the company, Darko Špiljarić, who is also a designer, explained that this new concept enables an increase in productivity, and in the coronavirus dominated era, it represents effective protection against the spread of infectious diseases of all kinds in such offices. Employees can thus achieve a good balance between working in a private environment and still working together, and it is suitable for use in new or existing offices. In yesterday’s online presentation, the Zagreb company, Dizz Concept, presented the prototype in more detail and explained the concept.
”Office Shell provides additional protection against viruses and bacteria and also helps alleviate stress in a green environment. The design is evolving and remains subject to change. It will be individually adaptable to each user, and during the production, we used natural materials in order to create a comfortable working environment that doesn’t require a period of getting used to,” explained Špiljarić.
Office Shell can be successfully combined with ordinary office furniture, and assembling or disassembling the unit takes less than twenty minutes. It is suitable, among other things, even for short-term rent. The domestic premiere of Office Shell will take place in September at Zagreb Design Week, and a month later it will be presented at the world’s leading office furniture fair – Orgatec 2020, which is being held in Cologne, Germany, as part of the Five Working Worlds exhibition.
This innovative Zagreb company revealed that they have sold several hundred Pop-up PIA kitchens in dozens of countries around the world. What makes them interesting to buyers is that they are very easy to fold and open and thus ”save” space. The vast majority of copies sold, they added, are exports, while here on the domestic market, they mostly dealt with smaller projects and occasional individual orders.
