Employees are complaining that the chatter from our new lounge breakout area is distracting people at their desks. How can we isolate the lounge space without building permanent drywall?
Use acoustic freestanding room dividers or tall open-shelf bookcases filled with books and potted plants to create a visual and acoustic barrier.
You can also lay down a thick, plush area rug under the lounge furniture to absorb floor footsteps and vocal echoes before they travel across the open office.
Hanging acoustic ceiling baffles directly over the seating area also helps trap sound right at the source.
