The team at SIXINCH USA works together with Populous to introduce the Elevate system, which is an indoor and outdoor work height structure. It features ADA-approved tables that add a modular function to any environment. There are 28 components that were taken into consideration for the system, highlighting structural seating, arm rests, drink rails, planters, and tables. The seating acts as the base of the design with upholstered wooden framing to ensure it is weatherized.
Senior Principal at Populous, Adam Stover explains “Climate change and recent pandemic experiences have increased our desire for fresh air and shown us how vital it is. In response, outdoor work areas have become more common, serving a secondary need for flexible workspace as organizations manage to change expectations and understand new needs for their students, their workforces, and their guests.”
