MONTRÉAL, Oct. 28, 2020 /CNW Telbec/ - Devimco Immobilier announces a partnership with Québec furniture manufacturer Artopex aimed at adapting living spaces to the new remote working reality. The two Québec companies have joined forces to create three exclusive solutions for Devimco Immobilier projects that are ergonomic, Scandinavian-style, and blend seamlessly into the ambience of rental units and condominiums.
Artopex has developed three products specifically designed for the styles of the various units in Devimco Immobilier buildings:
- The first piece of furniture, the Nook, is a compact wall unit that melds perfectly with the décor and offers an ideal workspace for those with smaller living spaces.
- The Edmond, with its L-shaped design and retractable surface, allows users to optimize their workspace with style. A wall unit with numerous storage options completes the design. Because the first two units are wall-mounted, they are fitted with a felt back to promote soundproofing.
- For larger apartments or condominiums, the Aeria is an ergonomic work surface with pneumatic height adjustment to facilitate working while both seated and standing. A storage cabinet is also built-in. These three concepts are offered with a work stool equipped with a rotating base that promotes ergonomic, non-static posture and improves blood circulation, as well as the level of concentration and alertness.
"The pandemic has made working from home a common practice, one that will remain even after the current crisis," says Serge Goulet, President of Devimco Immobilier. "With the trend towards smaller living spaces in recent years, we have realized that we often lack a space that would avoid us having to work at the kitchen table or on the living room couch. When possible, it is important to have a space dedicated to working, and that is what we want to offer our residents with this practical solution."
Daniel Pelletier, President of Artopex, added: "This partnership is a logical extension of our development of new home-office collections we recently launched. The models designed for Devimco are made in Québec, are ergonomic, meet high commercial quality standards and blend perfectly into their surroundings."
Devimco Immobilier will install these workspaces in nearly 10 of its residential rental projects, including the Nobel, Longueuil, Eolia, Maestria and Alexander developments. In addition, the three Artopex products developed specifically for Devimco Immobilier will be offered as an option when purchasing units in several residential condominium projects.
For those who would like to see and test the products, prototypes of the first two concepts are available now at the SOLAR UniquartierTM sales office in Brossard.
