Manifesto

Remote work didn't lose the office. It lost the hallway.

A shared office makes presence visible. Atelier gives teammates a place to meet, with characters, channel rooms, member workstations and spatial audio. Move between focused work and conversation in the same workspace.

Before · After

From a grid of green dots to a floor you share.

Remote by default
  • Presence is a green dot
    'Active' tells you someone's laptop is open — not whether they're really around.
  • Calendar Tetris
    A two-minute question needs an invite, a link and a slot three days out.
  • Calls that float free
    Meeting links live in calendars and DMs, far from the project they're about.
  • Focus is invisible
    There's no way to see who's heads-down, so interruptions land at random.
With Polyspace
  • A shared office
    See teammates as Atelier characters in a shared space.
  • Walk over to talk
    Spatial audio follows proximity as you move around the office.
  • Meet around the work
    Channel spaces provide a meeting room and member workstations. Shared screens bring content into the room.
  • Arrange your space
    Place Atelier furniture, adjust the layout and preview changes before applying them.
  • Continue in a channel call
    Use connected channel calls for screen sharing, captions and call chat.

FAQ

About bringing the office online.

Polyspace is a shared spatial office. Atelier characters and furniture make presence visible; spatial audio, rooms and shared screens support actual collaboration.

No. Calls use the self-hosted LiveKit media server configured for Polybase, start from the channel they belong to, and are encrypted in transit (DTLS-SRTP).

Yes. The whole office — avatars, rooms, spatial audio, the LiveKit media server — runs wherever Polybase runs: our EU cloud, your VPC, or a server in your basement.

Next step

Give the team its hallway back.

We'll walk you through a live Polyspace office — rooms, desks, walk-up audio and channel calls — and sketch what a floor for your team could look like.
