Designed by Douglas Ball Vivo interiors-<del>a frame-and-tile systemIn the Vivo frame-and-tile system, steel frames define the workspace, provide the foundation for hang-on components, and house power and data. Tiles attach to the frames, allowing tremendous variety and control of the design and function of individual frames.Crisp AestheticClean lines. Trim pieces have a thin profile and interlock for precise alignment.Visual highlights. Furniture-style glides have a progressive appearance and let in light; open work surface supports are light scaled; a horizontal bead between tiles has a reflective surface.Purposeful palette. The concise selection features light-to-dark, warm-to-cool finishes that combine harmoniously; glass, laminate, veneer, and textiles offer sophisticated choices.Smart PerformanceVersatile application. Configurations range from highly collaborative areas to more enclosed workstations, using 90</del> or 120-degree planning.Variety of heights.
