Agile Electrical Height Adjustable Desk: Me and my Agile electric height adjustable desk are inseparable. If I’m feeling down, it lifts me up and it does it with just the push of a button. In fact, it can lift me to 4 different heights as it has a cool electronic screen with 4 memory height presets on it! Also, I’m a bit of a neat freak and my Agile desk has the best cable management out there so it takes care of my mess too. I would love to tell you more about my Agile desk so email at craigm@workspace48.com and I will give you the full rundown. Talk to you soon!

The open office trend is driving a need for quiet spaces to make phone or video calls, or simply to allow greater concentration on specific tasks. The Motion LINK Phone Booth is the ideal answer for this!
At an NRC rating of .076, the acoustic value is simply “Out of this world!”
And another tip I have discovered….If you have co-workers that become annoyed if you make crunching noises when you eat potato chips in the office…this booth is for you!
Ask your boss for one today.

You can’t use powdered salt on your food in space or it floats away, so you must use it in liquid form. And by the way…Your nose runs a lot in outer space.

Or have a quick seat on…

Motion Expo is my favorite product. It just has this way of bringing people together for presentations, celebrations, daily huddles. With the tiered seating, there’s plenty of space for the whole team to gather around. The best part is, the acoustical properties help to keep noise to a minimum as to not bother those working around you.
MY COOL SPACE FACT
Space is completely silent. There is no atmosphere in space, which means that sound has no medium or way to travel to be heard.

The ORBIT divider — available with a pixel design or as a white board — must be the neatest private space divider on wheels. Lock the castors to keep it steady while your ideas take shape, then zip it to another spot to mark the boundary of space!

I love the Luna for its beautiful design! The wooden leg option adds a natural element and a touch of warmth to any space. Plus, the comfy seat come in an array of color options. I enjoy using it for impromptu meetings.
My Cool Space Fact
To live on a Super Earth would require super strength. If Earth were 10 times larger, gravity would be 10 times stronger! (This is based on the formula of Surface Area = Mass/Radius squared) A short jog on a Super Earth would feel like running a marathon!

Personal Storage (Caddy, BF and BBF) I’m all about organization and creating a space that works for the user. Without the added storage a desk can become cluttered and less efficient. Our personal storage units at any size can help create a clean and hassle-free workspace.

The Planter Walls: During our cold and very white winter months in the great white north, the pop of green that these tall, bright and handsome walls give off every morning is a breath of fresh air. Not only are they very easy on the eyes, but they’re also even easier on the lungs. Increasing the amount of oxygen circulating throughout our office and naturally increasing the humidity levels is something very important when it comes to big office spaces and productivity. It’s fair to say that these get the job done very well. In conclusion, they’ll leaf ya wanting more.
My Cool Space Fact
If two pieces of the same metal touch in space they will permanently bond. The same thing happened to me and the planter walls the first time we met.

Quiet Spaces Acoustic Wall-art: I love these unique, colorful and sound-dampening acoustic panels as they brighten up an office space and reduce sound pollution significantly. Also, it allows me to celebrate Habs wins from the comfort of my own desk without fear of disturbing my co-workers. Simply sensational!
My Cool Space Fact
Uranus is tilted on its side. It appears to be a featureless blue ball at first glance, but this gas giant of the outer solar system is pretty weird on closer inspection. The planet rotates on its side for reasons scientists haven’t quite figured out. The most likely explanation is that it experienced some sort of titanic collisions in the ancient past. In any case, the tilt makes Uranus unique among the planets in our solar system!

The Motion Otto Stool! This is the smallest product in the Motion Office family but don’t count it out. It comes in 10 different colors and is easily moved around on its robust castors making it a great choice for additional seating in collaborative areas!
My Cool Space Fact
There is a volcano on Mars three times the size of Everest! The Olympus Mons Volcano is 600 km wide and 21 km high and is the tallest point of any planet (although the Rheasilvia peak on the asteroid Vesta is slightly higher at 22 km tall). I wonder if any will try to climb it one day? Although it is possibly still active so that could make it even more dangerous!
