Nowadays open plan office areas have become very popular and are gradually replacing closed office areas.
Open plan office layouts have many benefits: better collaboration and communication between office employees therefore increasing the overall atmosphere of the workplace.
However, for all the advantages of the open office space the level of noise can often be a draw back and reduce the employee's ability to concentrate and can create unnecessary distractions.
Office acoustics are now recognised as having a major influence on employee productivity that result in the need for companies to look for a flexible and easily manageable way of creating private meeting and breakout spaces.
Meeting pods are small, enclosed, and often modular spaces designed for hosting meetings, brainstorming sessions, or private conversations within a larger office or open workspace environment.
They are intended to provide a quiet and focused area for team collaboration or individual work, while also offering some level of visual and acoustic privacy. Meeting pods can vary in size and design but typically share several common
features.
Meeting pods are fully or partially enclosed to provide a sense of privacy and reduce distractions from the surrounding environment. They often have walls, a ceiling, and a door or curtain for entry.
Meeting pods are designed to minimize noise leakage both in and out of the space. This helps maintain a quiet and distraction-free environment for meetings or work./p>
Inside the pod, you'll typically find seating options, a table or work surface, and sometimes basic amenities like power outlets and lighting. The furniture can be configured to suit different types of meetings or work tasks.
Many meeting pods are equipped with technology such as video conferencing equipment, screens, and audio systems to facilitate virtual meetings and presentations.
Meeting pods come in various shapes, sizes, and designs to cater to different office layouts and aesthetics. Some are designed to be small and cozy for one-on-one meetings, while others can accommodate larger groups.
Some meeting pods are modular and can be easily moved or reconfigured to adapt to changing office needs. This flexibility makes them a popular choice in dynamic work environments.
Adequate ventilation and lighting are essential for comfort and productivity within the meeting pod. Many pods incorporate ventilation systems to ensure a supply of fresh air.
Meeting pods should be designed to accommodate people with disabilities and be compliant with accessibility regulations.
Meeting pods have gained popularity in modern office design as they provide a flexible and efficient solution to the challenges posed by open-plan workspaces, where noise and interruptions can hinder concentration and communication. They offer a balance between open collaboration spaces and the need for private or semi-private areas for meetings, calls, or focused work.
Determine the size of the meeting pod based on your typical meeting or workspace needs. Consider how many people need to comfortably fit inside (e.g., one-on-one meetings, small groups, or larger teams.
Evaluate the design and layout options to ensure they align with your office aesthetics and space constraints. Some meeting pods are designed for privacy, while others prioritize open and collaborative settings.
Assess the soundproofing and acoustic qualities of the meeting pod to ensure that it effectively reduces noise both inside and outside the pod. This is critical for maintaining a quiet and focused environment.
Consider the level of privacy required for your meetings or work tasks. Some meeting pods are fully enclosed, while others may have glass walls or open ceilings. Choose a level of privacy that suits your needs
Determine whether the meeting pod should be equipped with technology such as video conferencing equipment, screens, and audio systems. Ensure that it can support your organization's communication and collaboration needs
Ensure that the meeting pod is accessible to all employees, including those with disabilities. Consider features like wheelchair accessibility and compliance with accessibility regulations.
By carefully considering these factors, you can select a meeting pod that aligns with your organisation's goals, enhance productivity and provide a comfortable and functional space for meetings and collaborative work.

I Would Definitely Recommend this Fab Piece of Furniture! | |
"I saw this meeting pod in some furniture showroom and i loved the idea of it! i have showed this amazing acoustic solution to my boss and he got really exited about it. everything about this acoustic meeting pod is great! the design, the look and the practical side of with resulting in space, hassle and money saving. the only trouble we had was - there were so many colours to choose from that it was owerwhelming! at the end we have decided to go with this particular one as it suits our interior really well! the acoustic qualities of this pod are great- id say is due to the material the carcass is made of and the shape helps. Power modules are an absolute must have in a meeting, as we have to skype our clients and suppliers often so you wouldnt want to end up with dead phone battery in the middle of the meeting. this booth doesnt take up much office space, fits neatly in the corner, but yet it is spacious inside - accomodates 4 of us easily, even 6 if needed! when not in use, I often see my work mates having their break in there, or somebody can use it just to have a quiet moment for themselves and escape from always buzzing office environment. i would definitely recommend this fab piece of furniture that has so many advantages!

We Love it and Would Highly Recommend this Product! | |
"I saw these in a bar- restaurant in Dublin and i thought - this is exactly what we need for our office. We were considering to build an area for daily meetings in our office, but there wasnt a corner that could be suitable for it. thus circular shape meeting pod suits us perfect, the measurements were just spot on as if it was meant to be :) We love it and would highly recommend!" | ||
