In the show, the transformation of an outdated warehouse into a modern high-tech office space features a wide array of Barco’s corporate AV solutions designed to boost collaboration and working efficiency.

A well-designed office space stimulates employee productivity, promotes efficiency and working comfort, and ultimately plays a role in fueling company growth. Not only can it serve as a strategic tool to convey creativity and innovation to the industry, but also enhance the spirit of the company, building employee morale and workplace satisfaction.

Produced by BrandStar’s award-winning home improvement show ‘Designing Spaces’, the new ‘Office Spaces’ series follows the step-by-step renovations, from design to installation, of a building for the company’s new headquarters. Upon entering the lobby, visitors are welcomed by a Barco LCD video wall powered by X2O content management system. Visual communications continue through to the conference rooms, where additional visual and collaboration solutions are used by business professionals.

The combination of Barco ClickShare, high-resolution business projectors, LCD video walls, and the X2O content management and communications platform offers a powerful, connected solution that harnesses the collective genius of an organization to fuel better decision making.

Barco business projectors and LCD displays also provide versatile canvasses for showing images and data in their best light, elevating the professional quality of visuals for any meeting, presentation, or public display.”
