Dramatic transformations in the nature, place and organization of working life in an increasingly digital society suggest a redesign of the work environment as a socially and technologically responsive system, occupying both home and office. This work examines the design, prototyping, evaluation and significance of an “Animated Work Environment” [AWE]. At the scale of a cubicle, AWE is a physical-digital space accommodating fluid assemblages of people working with printed and digital materials in a variety of locations and settings. The outcome of a transdisciplinary research effort extending across the disciplines of Architecture, Robotics, Sociology and Human Factors Psychology, AWE demonstrates how human needs and wants combined with the aspirations of Architecture and Robotics can guide design patterns and possibilities for working life in the Information World.
