Designer statement
Communitec is a desktop enclosure designed to balance digital and analogue requirements. It centres on an ergonomically inclined display and control panel with a deep installation area set back behind the front for electronic and mechanical components. The floating front frame integrates with the main body to reduce apparent proportions. A concealed rear access allows secure transport to the point of use.
