Designing Flexible Office Environments
Flexible, modular systems built around what people actually need
A retreat space or a collaborative hub? A creative ideation zone or a focused work area? Designing modern workplaces means constantly reimagining what's possible. Because office spaces must serve as many different needs as there are people working in them. The traditional desk has evolved into something far more dynamic: a hybrid spatial concept that's adaptable, inspiring, and endlessly reinventable.
As a leading office furniture manufacturer and expert in outfitting modern workspaces, Assmann identified these needs early and created solutions that work with people and their workflows – not against them. The company's approach centers on flexible, modular systems that prioritize individual requirements and adapt effortlessly to changing demands. Three standout products exemplify this philosophy: Cantaris, Cubas Flex, and Syneo Part Wondawall. Together, they create responsive work environments that breathe new life into the office – from mobile project, seminar, and bistro tables to multifunctional seating and storage solutions, and a highly adaptable partition system that is both practical and visually compelling.
Cantaris: When Ideas Demand Space
Anyone who's orchestrated a workshop knows the challenge: rigid rooms with fixed tables that stifle creative momentum. Enter Cantaris – the table system built for genuine workplace flexibility. Cantaris tables are fully mobile and reconfigure instantly to match how teams actually work. With optional folding tops, unused pieces vanish neatly away, reclaiming space for collaboration. Morning project meeting, afternoon workshop, midday team lunch – Cantaris transforms any room into an agile workspace. Classic white, black, and grey finishes work everywhere, but for those craving personality, seven trend colors are available for frames and surfaces – all harmoniously mix-and-match and perfect for turning any zone into a place where people want to work. On top of that, the Consento Bergamo stacking stool – lightweight, sturdy, and stackable – pairs perfectly with the series, and an optional felt wool cushion adds an extra layer of comfort.
Cantaris is equally impressive on sustainability. Made at Assmann's Melle facility, it features certified German and European materials with thoughtful, recyclable design throughout. Reversible connections allow simple disassembly, trend finish chipboards contain 100% recycled wood, and all plastic parts are clearly labeled for optimal recycling. The result: design with conscience.
Cubas Flex: One System, Infinite Possibilities
Today your project team needs a presentation platform, tomorrow a lounge for brainstorming, the day after a flexible workspace. Sounds complicated? It's not. Cubas Flex handles it all – multifunctional modules that reconfigure without tools and combine endlessly. Workstations, shelving, mobile seating platforms – it's all there. Add the optional plant containers and Cubas Flex becomes a living design statement, bringing greenery into the urban office. Smooth-rolling castors keep everything mobile, whether you're setting up a coffee bar for client meetings or creating quiet zones throughout the day. The smartest part? Cubas Flex integrates seamlessly with existing Cubas storage systems, growing and evolving with your needs in a truly sustainable way.
Syneo Part Wondawall: The Partition That Transforms
Need room-within-room solutions without renovation? Syneo Part Wondawall delivers. This mobile partition works as a privacy screen, whiteboard, display shelf, presentation backdrop – or even a planted feature bringing nature's perspective into your workspace.
Smooth-rolling castors make repositioning intuitive and effortless. Temporary meeting zone? Done. Focused work in an open plan? Absolutely. Sound-absorbing versions target acoustics without sacrificing the openness that defines contemporary offices. Syneo Part Wondawall gives you complete design freedom—from verdant statement pieces to functional media surfaces, it adapts precisely to your corporate culture and working style.
New Work: Reimagined for Every Organization
Flexibility isn't a luxury for creative startups—it's essential for every organization, from mid-market companies to large enterprises. The reality in most offices: work is evolving faster than spaces can adapt. Home offices, project teams, spontaneous collaboration, hybrid arrangements—they all demand environments that flex and respond.
