Semi-infrequent, quasi-relevant notes from Republic.

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

We’re continually amazed by our customers’ creativity.  Combining their office bike fleet with a custom partition, the folks at REACTOR have created some awesome, artful storage.

Here’s the story behind the REACTOR bike wall from Clifton of Reactor:

We planned to order custom bikes from Republic, but struggled to find a good solution for where we would store the bikes. We just don’t have the space for all the bikes to be leaning up against the wall or in a traditional bike rack. At the same time, we were designing a partition wall to separate our front lounge area from the rest of our office space. We needed a partition but also didn’t want to lose the light coming in our space from our large storefront windows. Then it clicked! Why not combine the two problems into into one ingenious solution. We now have a great storage system for the three of the four bikes, and a partition wall that acts as barrier but also lets in plenty of light. Our open workspace remains open and airy, but we still have a separate lounge by the front door. 

And whenever we want to head out for lunch or a nearby client meeting, we can grab a bike from  the hook and head off.
