ADT specified 200 Oblique desks in white on the strength of their practicality and cost effectiveness.
Yes Telecom Head of HR, Sacha Medina acknowledges that the system has also helped meet its needs.
"We are experiencing a more personal interaction amongst staff by structuring the desks in a bench set-up as opposed to silos of cluster configurations," he says.
"Third level screen based storage helps keep desks clear while PCs are hung under desk tops to keep the floor equally clutter free.
"Oblique performs well," says Sacha.
"It's practical to work and live with, and helps make the aesthetics of a great working environment." The Oblique furniture programme offers fast-assembly, free-standing desks for administration and executive areas, full systems for the general office, as well as simple, stylish bench solutions.
The design is available in wood veneer (maple, walnut or cherry) with a stainless steel frame, and with a simple silver leg frame and a choice of six mfc finishes; both versions maintain the pure lines of this stylish furniture system.
Complementing the desks is a full range of individual and departmental storage solutions.
From a basic platform for meeting and conferencing needs to a sophisticated workstation with comprehensive screen-based, at-hand third level storage, Oblique meets the diverse and changing dynamics of the workplace with style and ease.
Yes Telecom's installation enjoys the luxury of space: anticipating future growth, the company is presently using only 75-80% of its floor area occupancy and anticipates increasing staffing levels to 200 shortly.
