Payette’s interiors department has been sharing great and interesting interiors-related links over the past few weeks. Each day of the week we target a specific interiors-related topic and share it via Twitter using the hashtag #interiors. At the end of each week we’ll share all the links here. We hope you’ll find some inspiration, new ideas and great new sources. And we hope you’ll share your great interiors moments with us.
Monday, 7/8: RETHINKING THE OPEN OFFICE
Businessweek wrote about “the tyranny of the open office.” People spend half their time in deep focus, and a quarter collaborating.
Wednesday, 7/10: YOUR SEAT + YOUR BEHAVIOR
Check out this article about how your seat and desk size might affect the way you behave.
On the topic of designing workspaces, Google has a “150-feet from food” rule contributing to their success.
7/11: FAVORITE PRODUCTS OF THE WEEK
This week we selected the Edge & Jux by OFS as our favorite products this week. Both products complement each other and allow for ultimate flexibility, while offering privacy without walls and ceilings.
7/12: FELT IS IN
Felt is big this year, and was on all types of surfaces at NeoCon. With great acoustical properties, it’s a perfect choice to pair up with Buzzispace. (Another favorite product that stood out at NeoCon).
Check back next week for more interiors resources and inspiration, or follow along throughout the week with @payettepeople and the hashtag #interiors.

"Constructing a sustainable living environment for our veterans is not only important for their overall health and well-being but is a gift to our planet. The Community Living Center uses energy-efficient technologies and will nurture the physical, mental, and emotional health of our veterans while dignifying their long-term care needs with a home that honors their sacrifice.”-- Secretary Jon Santiago
The combination of geothermal heating and cooling, a heat recovery system, a high performance building envelope, a 0.7-megawatt rooftop solar array and natural ventilation in all resident spaces yields a building that uses 71% less energy than allowed by code—and eliminates the use of fossil fuels during typical operation.
