Open plan offices are great for fostering teamwork, but they can bring challenges in the form of noise, distraction, and a lack of privacy. Enter work booths – a game-changing addition to office layouts designed to strike the perfect balance between openness and functionality.
Whether you’re managing a hybrid workforce or looking to optimise your open-plan office, integrating office work booths into your environment can boost productivity, improve privacy and create happier, more focused teams.
Here at Lismark we supply a great range of work booth furniture, which combines modern style with sound-reducing acoustic properties and high quality durability.
Here are just some of the benefits of incorporating work booths into your office layout.
Whether you need a quiet sanctuary to get on with some serious number crunching away from the office chatter, or a space to get through a list of phone calls without disturbing those around you, an acoustic work pod is the perfect solution. Available in hundreds of great fabric options, the Dennis Work Pod has a compact design that fits well into any office space, while its thick sound-dampening walls enable your team to get on with the task in hand uninterrupted and without disturbing others.
Retreating to the meeting room is the traditional option when you need to make a private call or participate in a confidential video meeting, but it’s not an efficient use of this space which other colleagues are likely to want to use at the same time.
An acoustic work booth is ideal for these scenarios where privacy and the space to concentrate on an important conversation are paramount. If you know confidential discussions will be one of the main requirements of your office work booth, it’s worth considering a fully enclosed pod for maximum privacy. The minimalist design of the Milli Work Pod features a tempered glass door as well as structural detailing and noise-reducing materials to ensure class-leading acoustic properties.
Hybrid working has many benefits, but adapting to the busy office environment can be a shock to the system for those who have become used to controlling their own environment while working remotely at home. Available in clusters of 2, 3 or 4 pods and in two different heights, the Bee Cluster Pod offers a modern hub to work alongside colleagues in a solo space that fosters concentration, productivity and employee wellbeing.
Installing solo work booths is as much about what can happen outside the work pods as within them. Incorporating work booths such as the simple-yet-effective Bee Work Pod means the team is empowered to use the communal areas of the office to interact and collaborate without fear of disturbing others, whether that’s for a pre-planned meeting at a central table, or for a spontaneous brainstorming session in a designated break out area.
Our work booths feature generous desk space, power sockets, lighting, and ventilation, ensuring comfort and convenience for users. High quality built-in seating is often a feature too. For example, the striking design of the Kubby Work Pod is constructed around its generously sized forward facing seat. A fully adjustable task light, adjustable table, power socket and twin USB charging ports enhance and personalise the experience even further.
For the ultimate in flexibility as the team’s needs change over time, we offer a selection of work booths fitted with robust castors, so you can create an instant office oasis wherever and whenever it’s needed. The chic, compact ThinkPod offers hassle-free ergonomic comfort with its optional lockable castors and its compact 1950 mm height, which enables it to glide under doors with ease.
Work booths may be a godsend in the modern open plan office, but their benefits don’t end there. You can get creative and use them to maximise underused spaces in receptions, wider corridors and landings. Also, pods such as the streamlined and stylish Session Work Booth are highly popular in institutions like universities, libraries and any setting where it’s necessary to offer a quiet retreat to work within a communal environment.
Our highly experienced specialists are here to help you find the perfect office work booth. From initial conversations, to measuring up your space, to installing your pod and taking all the packaging away, we’re here for every part of the process.
