Two men are sitting in a modern, collaborative workspace. They are both smiling and appear to be engaged in conversation. One man, with a beard and wearing a blue patterned shirt, is sitting on the left, while the other, wearing glasses and a beige cardigan, is on the right. In front of them is a shared table that has a laptop and a blue water bottle. The backdrop features a wall with lockers. The overall atmosphere is casual and inviting.
