Amanda Carroll, Bob Greenberg, Nick Law, Norman Foster, Primo Orpilla
Originally produced by Film First Corp. in 2016.
WORKPLACE is a film about the past, present, and future of the office, from documentary filmmaker Gary Hustwit (Helvetica, Objectified, Urbanized, Rams). It looks at the thinking, innovation, and experimentation involved in creating the next evolution of what the office could be. Workplace follows the design and construction of the New York headquarters of digital agency R/GA (in collaboration with architects Foster + Partners) who have been experimenting with how physical and digital space can better interact. Digital technology has radically changed how and where most of us work, but the physical spaces we work in haven’t kept up with that transformation. Hundreds of millions of human beings spend billions of hours in offices every day. How can we make them better places for people to work and collaborate? What's the next wave of digital tools to connect the office, the city, and the planet? How has the office evolved over the last 100 years? And do we even need offices anymore?
