I keep hearing about “phone booths” being added to new offices. Aren’t those the old things for payphones? What are they used for in a modern workspace?
Think of a modern office phone booth as a small, private pod or room designed for one or two people. It's a quiet escape hatch in busy, open-plan offices. They're usually soundproof (or at least very well acoustic-dampened), and often have a seat, a small desk, ventilation, and power outlets.
Their main job is to solve the privacy problem in open spaces. People use them for:
- Private phone calls or video meetings.
- Focused, heads-down work without distractions.
- A quiet place for a confidential conversation.
They go by other names, too, like focus booths, privacy pods, or hush rooms. So no coins needed - just a bit of peace and quiet.
