Has anyone else noticed this trend in newer office designs? My company just renovated and switched to an open layout, and I keep wondering—Why are offices getting rid of cubicles?
Offices are getting rid of office cubicles mainly to adapt to hybrid work models, reduce office space costs, and improve team collaboration efficiency.
In practice, companies are shifting from fixed desks and enclosed cubicles to more flexible layouts such as hot-desking, bookable focus pods, and open collaboration areas, which can improve space utilization and in some cases reduce office footprint costs by about 20%–40%.
However, this design also comes with trade-offs, including increased noise and reduced individual focus, which often need to be managed with additional policies or quiet zones.
