Essentially a map of the world that rotates within a ring which is marked by the 24 hours of the day. Each highlighted city on the map is connected to indicators which establish the international time zones.
International Multimedia RoomInternational Multimedia RoomDetail Prototype:
The design of the room will have a global theme. In the center of the floor there will be a design of the world. The walls will have international flags and finished projects to encourage motivation.Flat screens on the wall displaying news worldwide.A a clock displaying different times worldwide.2 conference rooms to optimize collaboration.Video editing software and other tools. One-on-One computer conference/work centers
