Abstract

FrostWall is designed to support collegial communication and collaboration within a co-located work environment by facilitating and encouraging informal information exchange in the corridors of a workplace using large situated displays. FrostWall displays provide a flexible display area between the inside of a private office workspace and the public corridor outside it. FrostWall uses "frosting" of glass windows and partitions between private and public workspaces in combination with projectors to create a display area that is effectively dual-sided: readable and operable from both sides. In addition to facilitating informal digital communication and information exchange between co-workers, this situated display area also provides a venue for playfulness and personal expression enhancing social cohesion between colleagues. FrostWall is also a unique vehicle for future research into interaction design for dual-sided interfaces.
