A method for facilitating space experiences for at least a first space user and for at least first and second different spaces, the method comprising the steps of storing first and second space experience specifications for the first and second different spaces, respectively, wherein the first and second space experience specifications indicate space affordance settings for the first and second spaces, respectively, sensing a trigger event associated with at least one of the first and second different spaces, where the sensed trigger event is associated with the first space, using the first space experience specification to control the first space affordances and where the sensed trigger event is associated with the second space, using the second space experience specification to control the second space affordances.
A system for use with a subset of affordances within a workspace wherein each of the affordances has at least one controllable affordance characteristic, the system, for controlling affordance characteristics within the workspace, the system comprising:
A method for use with a subset of affordances and with a personal portable computing device within a workspace wherein each of the affordances has at least one controllable affordance characteristic and the portable computing device controls at least one space experience effect the method for controlling affordance characteristics and the at least one space experience effect within the workspace, the method comprising the steps of:
A system for use with a personal portable computing device within a workspace wherein the computing device controls at least one space experience effect, the method for controlling the at least one space experience effect within the workspace, the system comprising:
