Project
Mission Control
Zurich / Switzerland, 2008
Description
Open Systems offers its customers worldwide a 24-hour network security service. Systems are monitored online in the specially installed Mission Control cubes at the headquarters in Zurich. The four workplaces in each cube are manned by qualified staff. Individual work cubicles, each with two large monitors, telephone headsets and the 5x5 meter wall projections support the specialists in their highly concentrated work. The ceilings in the existing building structure had to be breached to allow the oversized boxes to be installed. Visitors are given an insight in the work of Open Systems and are presented a striking visual image of this purely virtual work.
