Sacramento, Calif. USA – 3 February 2016 – Barco, a global
leader in visualization technology, plays a starring role in a new
commercial design reality show “Office Spaces,”™ in which the
transformation of an outdated warehouse into a modern high-tech office
space features a wide array of Barco’s corporate AV solutions designed
to boost collaboration and working efficiency.
A well-designed office space stimulates employee productivity,
promotes efficiency and working comfort, and ultimately plays a role in
fueling company growth. Not only can it serve as a strategic tool to
convey creativity and innovation to the industry, but also enhance the
spirit of the company, building employee morale and workplace
satisfaction.
Designing the office of the future, today
Produced by BrandStar’s award-winning home improvement show Designing Spaces®, the new Office Spaces
series follows the step-by-step renovations, from design to
installation, of a building for the company’s new headquarters. An
important objective for the new space is to create a collaborative work
environment in a modern and efficient workspace, one that increases
productivity and encourages a new culture for its employees.
Fueling real-time collaboration
This is where Barco shines, offering a wide array of innovative,
easy-to-use visual collaboration tools and high-impact presentation
solutions that improve the way employees share information, knowledge
and ideas. Upon entering the lobby, visitors are welcomed by a Barco LCD
video wall powered by X2O content management system. Visual
communications continue through to the conference rooms where additional
visual and collaboration solutions are used by business professionals.
The combination of Barco ClickShare, high-resolution business projectors, LCD video walls, and the X2O content management and communications platform
offers a powerful, connected solution that harnesses the collective
genius of an organization to fuel better decision making.
“Barco provides a critical piece of the puzzle in designing today’s modern work environments,” comments Kalyn Rothaus, host of Office Spaces.
“With a growing focus on collaboration and a bring-your-own-device
office culture, ClickShare is the ideal solution to quickly and easily
facilitate better communication. Barco business projectors and LCD
displays also provide versatile canvasses for showing images and data in
their best light, elevating the professional quality of visuals for any
meeting, presentation, or public display.”
Enterprise solution connects people and information
As the show progresses from the first episode, featuring a virtual tour
of the newly imagined office space, to the final unveiling of the new
headquarters at the end of the season, Barco corporate AV solutions will
be present throughout the facility, from the lobby, to meeting rooms
and the boardroom.
“We are excited to participate in the new Office Spaces
television series, where viewers will be able to see our meeting room
collaboration solutions in action,” comments Romeo Baertsoen, Vice
President Strategic Marketing for Corporate. “We have designed all of
our corporate AV tools with ease of use, high image quality, and
versatility in mind, making them a welcome and impressive addition to
any office environment.”
