In this paper, we unpack three themes for the multidisciplinary codesign
of a physical and digital meeting space environment in supporting
collaboration: that social practices should dictate design, the importance of
supporting fluidity, and the need for technological artifacts to have a social
voice. We describe a prototype meeting space named inSpace that explores how
design grounded in these themes can create a user-driven, information-rich
environment supporting a variety of meeting types. Our current space includes a
table with integrated sensing and ambient feedback, a shared wall display that
supports multiple concurrent users, and a collection of storage and
infrastructure services for communication, and that also can automatically
capture traces of how artifacts are used in the space.
