Abstract

A comfortable environment crucially influents the performance of workers. A noisy working environment can interfere with the concentration and productivity of workers. Grab office uses an open layout plan because collaboration and discussion between individuals are needed. With this, the work area tends to be noisier. Even slight distractions and chattering greatly affect an individual’s level of concentration. To respond to this, the designer attempts to create a workstation that can minimize noise to create a more productive working environment. The process of designing the workstation is carried out by using a design process method pioneered by Rosemary Kilmer and W. Ottie Kilmer which covers analysis and synthesis stage, starting from gathering information about materials that can absorb noise to implementing it towards the design of the workstation. The design of the workstation is based on the corporate identity of Grab such as by using Grab’s corporate color, green, and also by making use of Grab’s logo to develop the shape of the workstation. To reduce noise in the working area, acoustic materials are used. Fiberglass boards are then used as partitions and workstation dividers to absorb noise throughout the working area.
