About Democracy Mesa

Ang Democracy ay isang mesa na dinisenyo para sa mga pinagsasaluhang lugar ng trabaho. Inaalis ng mesa ang mga nakikitang kasangkapang panteknolohiya at pinapalitan ang mga ito ng isang transparent na tuktok na plato, dalawang butas na hugis A4, at isang semi-transparent na drawer. Pinapanatili ng malinaw na ibabaw ang pagiging bukas ng lugar ng trabaho at ipinapakita kung paano inaayos ng bawat user ang kanilang mga personal na bagay. Ang frame ay gawa sa mga pipa ng aluminyo na may matte powder coating. Ang katawan, mga gulong, plato, at drawer ay ginupit gamit ang makinang CNC mula sa acrylic, kahoy, at ABS. Ang mesa ay may sukat na 1230 kada 640 kada 760 milimetro. Kapag pinagsama-sama ang ilang mesa, sinusuportahan nito ang pagtutulungan bilang isang koponan habang nananatiling nakikita ang indibidwal na katangian ng bawat isa.
