As sales screens blast terrible music every other minute and coworkers talk on the phone in loud, grating voices, is your workplace productivity suffering? Open office plans have their perks, but increased noise levels is not one of them. Depending on the job, some of your employees may need more quiet to increase their productivity and overall job satisfaction.
In fact, in 1997, the University of Calgary studied open workspaces and found increased levels of stress and anxiety and decreased work productivity. However, it’s possible to have an open workplace but incorporate acoustic furniture into your workplace to increase productivity and overall job satisfaction. What types of acoustic furniture are out there?
Whether you need a permanent or temporary soundproof area, modular acoustic panels could create a quiet, cozy little space. This area could be used for meetings or team projects and be arranged around a table or seating area.
Did you know you could hang up wall art that reduces noise levels? Not only will you be sprucing up your space, you’ll make it quieter, which is a win-win situation. Available in a variety of different shapes, sizes and colors, these felt panels provide insulation from sound. You could even pin different items to the panels during presentations to make a point.
Truly futuristic in their appearance, these nifty contraptions feature a cocoon hood surrounding the head while talking on the phone to reduce noise. If your employees are particularly distracted, they could pull down the cocoon to block out any surrounding noise.
Acoustic chairs are great because they can easily be moved around the office and be used both for workspaces and for lounging areas. Employees can use the areas to work or to take phone calls during their breaks.
If you don’t want to build an entire wall to partition your place of business, you could benefit from purchasing a wing instead. Basically, these items hang from the ceiling at a 90-degree angle, creating a makeshift “wall.” Additionally, they can even create a source of indirect light and help cut down on computer screen glare.
