Kivo transforms the workplace into a flexible canvas on which to expand or adapt. The combination of a lightweight steel skeleton and simple magnetic tiles allows the system to be moved and reconfigured with ease. As required, different areas can be designed and redesigned over and over again. Kivo is made to simply move and adapt when floor plans change. It’s an approach that is driven by the evolving workplace.
Kivo has the ability to create different spaces across the office floor. Each new area is functional and appropriate to any intended task – the lightweight free-standing system can simply delineate an area or repurpose it for something completely new. It’s left to the designer to be as creative as they wish, suggesting areas that have many possible functions – one system with multiple variations. Integral to this creativity is Kivo’s shape – the equilateral triangle – chosen for its strength, versatility and visual simplicity.
Redefining where you work can redefine how you work. Whether it’s a space that offers individual respite from interruption, or an area that encourages collaboration without distracting others, the Kivo system uses its simple geometry to great effect. With a combination of acoustic dampening materials and visual screening, an open space can be transformed into a private escape with clear boundaries. Secluded areas are quickly and simply carved out of the open workplace.
While Kivo functions as an essential demarcation of space, it can also make a powerful architectural statement. Finishes range from bold colours to lighter hues. The delicate, polished steel skeleton provides a strong framework, while the felt tile adds a tactile element to the structure. The lightweight triangular modules also give a unique sense of design in a variety of combinations and patterns – a geometric mosaic that’s as aesthetically pleasing as it is functional.
