A Workspace Divider That Doubles as a Lamp

While open offices are wonderful for collaborating with co-workers, sometimes you need a little bit of separation to get your work done. Ivan Kasner and Uli Budde took the partition idea and improved upon it for De Vorm by incorporating lighting into it. The AK 2 – Workspace Divider Lamp is made to hang above desks, reading tables, or shared workspaces as a way to add privacy, provide sound dampening, and to light the area.

The divider creates separate workspaces and shines light on both sides. Inside the AK 2 is acoustic foam that helps to minimize sound reverberation in an open space.
