Arper cubicles are an elegant throwback to the golden age of cubicles

Italian company Arper had a great idea: Create a line of elegant cubicles to divide the hell that is the open office. They look really cool–but wait, haven’t we seen this before?

Ah, yes. It seems Arper got a plutonium-powered Fiat 600 time machine and went back to the past for inspiration–a reedition of the cubicles that were used in the ’60s to end with the open plan offices and bullpens of the ’50s, demonstrating once again that we live in a cycle of creation and destruction. We will never learn.
