Coppice Work Booth

Coppice Work Booth is a freestanding semi-enclosed workstation providing an alternative free space work area for focus with a high level of acoustic comfort.

The open office has suffered in recent years, with many research papers suggesting that workers may struggle to concentrate if there's too much activity around them. Ambient levels are central to these studies, either because they are too high (something easy to remedy) or, more surprisingly, because they're too low. At the same time, however, open-plan workplaces offer many benefits. They are, for instance, proven to increase physical activity by encouraging interaction and movement between spaces designed for team collaboration, unplanned meetings, media conferencing, phone calls etc. They also bring workers together, making us more aware of, and collaborative with, those with whom we share the office.

The answer lies in balancing these shared spaces and communal assets with easily accessible personal zones that allow for uninterrupted concentration. Enter Coppice Work Booths or work bays by Orangebox. Designed as a stand-alone, single occupancy workstation it offers a high level of acoustic comfort, increasing productivity when focused work needs to carried out.

The Coppice focus bay helps enhance productivity and happiness for those working in open-plan environments. The Coppice collection offers 12 office configuration to match every working scenario - from collaborative teamwork to unplanned interactions. The arrangements provide work booths, library bays or focus bays.

Each Coppice unit uses lacquered bent Birch Plywood panels a honeycomb core to reduce the weight. Thus making the work booth screens easier to transport and manoeuvre, as well as reduce the number of resources used. As an option, the bent plywood screens can have a felt lining added in grey anthracite. Having the work booth with upholstered panels does enhance the acoustic comfort. All screens have polished feet. Each Coppice variant supports a tabletop finish in melamine offering Walnut, Grained Oak, Artisan Oak, Beech, Graphite, White or Grey finishes.
