Amazon

Amazon is growing rapidly all over the world. As they sprint to expand operations, they are adding thousands of employees every year. A large area of opportunity for the internet giant is expansion in Europe. Amazon works to recruit top young talent and builds amazing spaces to inspire and cultivate their culture.

During a buildout in the fall of 2016, Amazon realized they had a space division issue. They were building a state-of-the-art facility in Bucharest, Romania, but realized during the design and build process that the open environment had two significant drawbacks. First, there was too much open space, making it difficult for individuals and teams to focus.

Additionally, there was a lack of space for team members to be creative and problem solve. Amazon needed something other than just a standard whiteboard; they needed mobile glassboards that could function as both a dividing wall and a writing surface.
