Det multifunktionella mötesrummet : Hur formgivningen av ett mötesrum kan underlätta för flervägskommunikation

Sammanfattning: This thesis is a study about how a conference room can be formed to facilitate for multiway communication. The room will facilitate meetings in different forms. This study uses a meeting room in Västerås for the leading team of “Habiliteringscentrum Västmanland” as an example. In the current situation the room doesn’t meet the needs of the leading team to support multiway communication and the room is perceived as uninspiring. In order to support the leading team to have multiway communication, it’s very important to have a conference room that reflects the newly introduced ways of working. The current design and use of the room has been studied through an architectural analysis, interview, observation and a questionnaire. With support from literature and the results from the architectural analysis, interview, observation and the questionnaire I have created a design proposal. Through color, work material and furniture adapted to the requirements of the leading team, the new design proposal for the room creates space for multiway communication and a possibility to stimulate the team to a creative way of thinking. The design suggested support multiway communication that can lead to more effective meetings with better results for their continued work.
