you.
Lastly, and we’re proud to say this
one’s from home soil, Bisley recently
showed off its new smart locker
system – perfect for 昀氀exible or hotdesking environments.
Their latest locking technology
comes in the form of hard-wired
smart lock software. It takes away
the hassle of key management, any
physical on-site presence, and subpar security with smart lock software
that puts the user in complete

One can even take it further
and embed control tablets into
your storage, offering an even
slicker application with maximum
ef昀椀ciency. Some locks can now be
linked up to real-time smart locking
wireless networks and be controlled
via an app on your phone or device.
In short, the smart money is on
smart furniture!
The world’s first digitallytransformable sofa. Lift-Bit is a
modular seating system made up
of a series of upholstered stools,
each of which is equipped with its
own linear actuator. These mini
motors can be programmed to
move the pieces up and down to
create a custom sofa landscape
that suits the situation. Bed?
Chaise longue? Lounge-like chairs?
