Obeya by OFS: A framework for bringing people together
Creative folks will tell you that a point of reference can often times produce for more creativity than starting with a blank canvas. This is the fundamental essence of Obeya. Through the richness of wood, its design was intended to simplify and define space. Spaces designed with intent to communicate expectations without precisely prescribing them. Obeya is a framework that brings settings and people together accordingly, based on the human needs of privacy and belonging.
