Reboot Spaces by Flipspaces
Kunal Sharma and Ankur Mucchal’s Flipspaces has dedicated a whole range of products and fittings to make commercial spaces safe and hygienic. Keeping in mind important aspects such as social distancing, hygiene, sanitisation and touchless automation, the company facilitates healthy work environments through the installations of automatic sanitiser booths, pod seating in workspaces that ensure the mandated six-feet distance between employees, while also making these products look chic and covetable!

Earth masks by Nappa Dori

Featuring a contemporary design and Indian elements, these masks by Nappa Dori are made using upcycled fabric and washable materials, making them not just reusable but also ideal for daily use. Plus, they are equipped with a double layer of protection and an extra band of webbing for a comfortable grip and are available in shades reminiscent of the earth and sky. Website: www.nappadori.com

Masks by Payal Singhal
Well known for her signature prints, designer Payal Singhal devised these reusable, washable and three-layered masks that are made of 75 percent cotton and 25 percent silk. The centre is made of cotton,  which allows easy breathability and better protection. With aesthetic prints and a pouch to match, these masks are available in various stores across the country and online. Website: www.payalsinghal.com

The Renga Screen by Project 810

A handcrafted screen that exemplifies the idea of social distancing, the Renga screen by Vritima Wadhwa’s brand is a manifestation of all earthly elements that work in harmony to create a striking silhouette. This solid wood structure functions as a room divider making it easy to customise a space that still maintains social distancing. Instagram: @project810

Spatium6 by Welspun Flooring
Considering that some day in the future, we’re bound to begin working from offices again, the brand’s Spatium6 is one of the best timed launches. It promotes safety in the workplace by demarcating areas using specific cues and visual floor markers. The idea is to practice social distancing aesthetically and without having to be constantly reminded of it. The flooring option ensures that workstations, meeting rooms, conference rooms and even cafes are optimally reconfigured without hampering the daily running of the business.

Auto clean basins by VitrA

An auto-clean function that is fast, easy and hygienic is the perfect solution for frequent sanitisation needs. This basin offers a water outlet that prevents build-up of dirt and ensures premium hygiene. The main feature allows the sink to dispense cleaning agents from a concealed detergent tank, which is released with the water, ensuring maximum hygiene while soothing with its refreshing scent. Also seen above is the Aquasee faucet by the company. Website: www.vitra-india.com

Room dividers by Matteo Cibic Studio

Typical of designer Matteo Cibic’s style are these playful screens that are an excellent tool for social distancing in various spaces such as salons, restaurants and offices. These pieces (above and below) by Matteo Cibic Studio feature a transparent wall inserted between two people to act as a face shield while also ensuring that mandated distance is maintained. These shields come in various sizes and shapes and can be fitted into any number of spaces. Website: www.matteocibicstudio.com
