# **Guide: Defining Workplace Spaces**

## Spaces Overview

In **inspace**, a Space is a group of bookable meeting rooms, workspaces, desks, acoustic booths, etc. with shared characteristics. On the floor plan, you can use spaces to mark certain areas – a lounge zone, cafeteria, wellness room, or open area.

Spaces can also be created for specific departments. For example, the IT department Space can consist of dedicated desks with certain equipment (e. g. mouse, keyboard, multiple monitors, docking station, etc.) and amenities. You can also specify who can book in this Space, for example, only team members assigned to the IT department.

To assign a desk to a Space, do the following:

1. Log in to **inspace** using your admin credentials.
2. In the left navigational panel, select **Settings**. Then select **Space Settings** and click the desk you want to assign to the Space (see Picture 1).
