With Intrapreneurship werkt! students of divers disciplines are mingled to come up with solutions for urbanization and climate change. Because of the various disciplines, the students are confronted to think outside their comfort zone of their own specialty.
During two intense weeks of lectures, coaching and pitching, and together with an engineer student of electro dynamica, the Flexiwall was developed.
Poster to promote our business idea.
The population is continuously rising. This is visible in the urbanization and densification of residential areas.
Building and living becomes more expensive. People move to the city and life on smaller surfaces.
But in this day and age, comfort has reach a profound level.
How can we provide for people so they can life on a smaller surface without having to lose their need for and expectations of comfort?

Our solution: the Flexiwall.
The smart movable walls can divide the living area to the desire of the inhabitant. At one point the apartment can have one bedroom and at another, it can have three.
This is possible with the walls linked to a central home control system.

Small spaces and efficient use of that space is our central idea. Also comfort is a core value within our company.
The Flexiwall fits into a circular model with use of sustainable materials.
