Office with partitions

A office with partitions or modular work station is a small operating area of Bureau, closed on two or three sides by partitions. These partitions are often removable and a height which makes it possible to be insulated when one assoit but to have an overall picture once upright. The Anglicisme cubicule is sometimes also used.

It is said that on his bed of death, the inventor of the office with partitions (“cubicule celebrates it”), Robert Propst, disavowed his creation whose success had exceeded its waitings. It had wished to create a workspace adapted the needs of the workers, but the laws of the market transformed its “Action Office” into sardine boxes.
