Description: Nowadays, especially with the expansion of Generation Y, the corporate world has embraced the use of digital information and computer software in workflows, the application of networked technologies in communiaction, and the integration of electronic means in business operation. These new phenomena have indeed been gradually reshaping business models, communication methods, and organisational structures, as well as workplace designs. Rather than seeing the future of the workplace as a more confusing array of computers and cables, this paper proposes three ways in which the workplace will be transformed to a place in which the boundaries and our interaction with the physical and the digital worlds are blurred. We see the workplace as a new kind of media place, and augmented reality place and a curious responsive place.
