Questions about a quieter office
Why is it so hard to focus in an open office?
Mostly because of speech. The brain processes nearby speech automatically, so half-heard calls and conversations pull attention away even when people try to ignore them.
Do booths make an open office quieter?
They take away the main source of distraction: calls, video meetings and conversations move from the desks into enclosed booths. Rugs, acoustic panels and plants soften the rest of the room.
Where should the booths go?
Close to the desks. If a booth is far away, people take the call at their desk anyway. See our placement ideas for fifteen spots that work.
