Project description

Have you ever longed to spend your laptop tasks on a sunny day in Ilmpark or Theaterplatz instead of in your sticky flat? At Workation, we want to make digital working outdoors possible for everyone - as comfortable as possible. No blinding sun, no worries about empty battery or back pain from sitting hunched over.

Our prototype work island will be located right on campus at the former Gropius Room. During Summaery and beyond, you can either sit here alone with your laptop or co-work with friends or strangers.

Our pavilion is mainly made of a wooden construction, which is roofed and offers enough protection from the sun with the help of fabrics. With an integrated horizontal greening technique, our model increases the well-being and contributes to the purification and cooling of the local urban climate.

The idea was developed as part of the Bauhaus.module "Entrepreneurship & Innovation" of the founder workshop Neudeli. Over the course of the semester, we developed our start-up idea under the guidance of the start-up incubator team. Since March 2021, we have also been supported in the Neudeli Fellowship with a budget, which enables us to realize our prototype.
