Abstract
Through research, product development, and user feedback this thesis project focuses on the development of a customizable, supplemental workstation that allows users to customize and adjust their approach to work within the ever-changing work environment of today and tomorrow. My project's purpose is to provide versatility and adaptability in the work environment to various users and work scenarios. Its design aims to improve workplace health, comfort, and productivity by allowing the user to select with ease, a standing or sitting position, as well as incorporate ease of mobility by allowing the user to easily transport the workstation wherever it may be needed within the work setting.
