Foster + Partners has launched XYZ, a flexible office system, in collaboration with Italian furniture manufacturer UniFor. The modular system comprises a shelving unit X, a lightweight conference table Y and a sit/stand desk Z, of which X and Y are on display at Salon del Mobile in Milan. The X-shaped timber or aluminium posts, with spring loaded ceiling supports, form the primary structure of the shelving unit X. The Y-shaped legs of the Y table can be used to link table tops and the Z desk has a patented mechanism that allows intuitive adjustment by pulling the table up or pushing it down. Photo © Unifor.
