Both Space and Fields are a range of furniture for the modern day workplace, adapted to be flexible and meet the individual demands and requirements of today's working life."

Space

is a furniture concept designed by the designer Stefan Brodbeck (Brodbeck design) for today's and tomorrow's way of working, meeting and storing. The range is based on a large number of storage modules which are connected and combined depending on the functionality and look you want. The flexibility of the range enables both concentration and discussions as well as space for group and private areas.
