Projects

In their day-to-day configuration, the pods offer quiet, focused areas ideal for solo work, small meetings, or video calls. But with a quick, tool-free reconfiguration, they align seamlessly to form an acoustic wall — instantly transforming the space into a private zone for informal presentations, team gatherings, or workshops.

The pods were upholstered in Camira Blazer fabric in a bespoke colour format, perfectly matched to the client’s corporate palette for a cohesive brand presence. This installation not only elevates workplace flexibility but also enhances acoustic comfort, supporting a healthy and agile working culture.

Fully mobile, sustainably built in the UK, and designed for circularity, the Yo-Yo POD solution ensures that the space will keep evolving with the organisation’s needs for years to come.

These ultra-mobile pods create quiet, focused zones for individual work or small group collaboration, and can be reconfigured in moments to adapt to dynamic team needs.

Finished in fabric tones aligned with the project’s cohesive colour scheme, the pods integrate seamlessly into the high-tech, design-led environment, supporting Databricks’ culture of creativity, agility, and well-being.

The project, secured by Loraine Perkins, MD of DSE Assessments, was driven by the vision of Casey X, AutoTrader’s Head of Workplace, who features in the accompanying video. Both Loraine and Casey are strong advocates of the desk’s SMART capabilities — powered by the Active Working® App — which give users personal height settings, activity goals, and gentle prompts to keep moving throughout the day.

This exclusive upgrade transforms each Flytta desk into a data-driven wellness tool, encouraging regular movement, boosting energy, and reducing the risks of sedentary working. And with Flytta’s circular design, recycled materials, and end-of-life refurbishment programme, the project aligns perfectly with AutoTrader’s sustainability commitments.
