Flexopus is revolutionizing the working world of tomorrow

A flexible workspace, partly in the office and partly from home, is now standard in many companies. For hybrid working models to work well in practice, companies need suitable software solutions. "With the practical Flexopus app, employees can plan and book flexible workstations, meeting rooms, etc. online in advance. A tool that is not only useful but also very user-friendly, making modern working between working-from-home and office easier," says the jury statement.

Intuitive use thanks to outstanding design

The success of the app is based not least on its intuitive use and modern appearance. Both form the foundation for an outstanding user interface (UI/UX) and user-friendliness. From the very beginning, great importance was attached to designing the software in such a way that it can be used intuitively and without instructions. This outstanding design and functionality has now been recognized with the German Design Award 2024.

Hot desking is the key to hybrid work success

Philipp Wahju, member of the Flexopus management board, sees the award as confirmation of the company's path: "Innovation and excellent design are at the heart of our philosophy. This award encourages us to continue leading the way in designing the workplace of the future.

"Flexopus enables users to make flexible use of workspaces and thus ensures efficient use of office space. "Desk sharing means flexibility for employees and cost efficiency for employers - a win-win situation that makes hybrid work a success," continues Wahju.

Frequently Asked Questions summarized

Why did Flexopus win the German Design Award and what was particularly honored?

Flexopus was honored for its excellent design quality and pioneering user experience. In particular, the jury recognized the software's ability to translate complex organizational processes — such as booking workplaces and resources — into an intuitive, aesthetically appealing interface. The award confirms that Flexopus is not only a functional tool, but also significantly promotes the acceptance of hybrid working models in companies through its design and makes digital transformation in the workplace in a user-centred way.

What role does good design play in the acceptance of desk sharing software in companies?

Design is much more than appearance; it is the decisive factor for user acceptance. Desk-sharing software is only popular if it is barrier-free, self-explanatory and visually inviting. Bad design leads to frustration and workarounds. Flexopus' award-winning design ensures that employees perceive the booking process as a relief for their everyday lives. When a tool is fun and works intuitively, the barrier to cultural change towards a “shared office” decreases drastically.

How does the German Design Award reflect Flexopus' commitment to the hybrid working world?

Winning the award underscores Flexopus' claim to combine technology and humanity. In a hybrid working world, which is often characterized by digital overload, Flexopus focuses on clarity and structure. The prize is proof of the commitment to making work environments more efficient and more beautiful at the same time. It signals to customers and partners that Flexopus is a future-proof partner that defines innovation not only technically, but also in the interaction between people and digital infrastructure at the highest level.
