Breaks and informal meetings: when acoustics come into play!
In the office, there are two types of meetings, the organised ones... and the others! The ones that are improvised in the lobby, break room or even in the open space. And although we sometimes complain about the time spent in meetings, these informal exchanges are often valuable in many ways. Many furniture specialists have understood this and now offer solutions that are both stylish and well thought out. Let's take a look :)
Why and how encouraging informal meetings in companies?
Most of the time, informal meetings are held in the open space, the corridor, the break room, in front of the water cooler or the coffee machine. And even if they are not "organised", they are nevertheless productive.These meetings are, of course, a great way to communicate and exchange ideas, but not only that: without it being apparent, these impromptu discussions are also a great tool for team building and brainstorming about projects ... whereas certain official meetings sometimes have the ability to "knock us out"!The problem (yes, there is one!) is that these meetings can be disturbing for the employees in the vicinity or lack discretion. Fortunately, acoustic engineers and furniture experts have looked into the matter and have come up with solutions that are as beautiful as they are smart.
Acoustic cabins
With their original and trendy look, these cabins are attractive to many professionals. But do not be misled! They are not just beautiful installations. They are real acoustic rooms with thick, sound-absorbing walls.
Acoustic office cabin The Hut
Straight from the Nordic countries, The Hut acoustic booth ensures sound insulation for people inside and outside. It thus preserves the confidentiality of exchanges and the calm in the room where it is installed.The icing on the cake: The Hut is truly a marvel of design! Its friendly and playful hut-look gives character to the furnishing of the room. To suit all spaces and all companies, this acoustic booth can be adapted and personalised as required.
Acoustic cabin Komunikube
With its elegant and contemporary style, the Komunikube cabin follows the same trend. This solution, which offers excellent sound insulation - made in France! - makes it possible to talk in a quiet environment ... or, conversely, to find peace in a busy environment.The acoustic cabin Komunikube can also be adapted to the needs of the company, with indirect LED lighting, a work table with integrated cables, USB ports, etc.
In short, all-inclusive comfort for connected professionals: we approve!
Acoustic chairs and sofas
For smaller spaces, armchairs and sofas can also combine design and acoustic insulation. And now you might ask yourself: hmm... can a sofa really be acoustic? Well, the answer is yes.
Acoustic sofa Gaia Privacy
The contemporary and comfortable Gaia Privacy offers a particularly cosy and relaxed space for your informal meetings or telephone conversations. The secret? Well-padded 81 cm high acoustic walls, perfect for stopping the gossip of the day about the annual turnover from spreading.
Acoustic sofa Amity
Halfway between the acoustic cabin and the acoustic sofa, the Amity range also offers multiple configurations to meet all needs. We particularly like its bi-material style and its trendy geometric shapes. Available in armchair, sofa or cubicle format, Amity is also made in France and comes with an 8-year guarantee!
