Makerspace

The items listed below are integrated into the architecture of the space. This information complements additional details listed on both the Workplace technology and Furniture and fixtures tabs.

• Refer to the Color and finishes page for additional information.

• All walls to go to deck with sound attenuation, acoustical ceiling tile ceilings with a minimum sound absorption of .75 and carpet flooring.
• Consider including acoustical wall panels and a white noise system.

To achieve desired lighting lux levels and color temperature, please follow these guidelines: 

• 400-550 lux levels on faces 
• 3000-4000K recommended CCT Values (Color Correlated Temperature).  
• In spaces with videoconferencing, use indirect, diffused, and evenly distributed lighting. Room lighting should be completely even across the field of view of the camera.

NOTE: The illuminance of lamps affects the color appearance and should be taken into consideration when planning CCT Values.

• For furniture power specification please refer to the Furniture and fixtures tab.
• Power for AV equipment only - all power circuits in AV rooms should be "always on".  There should not be an ability to turn these circuits off using any normal light switch. Coordinate with GWS to ensure this configuration.
• Direct run cable installed between the floor core/box and the display wall.
  • HDBT 3.0 signal connecting the Kramer EXT3-C-XR-T (under table) to the Kramer EXT3-POE-XR-R (behind the display), Optional Auxiliary Mic connection + 1 spare
