8 of the best phone booths and meeting rooms for flexible working(1)

Phone booths and meeting rooms are becoming increasingly popular within offices, but in some public places users are also allowed to work on the fly. Flexible working and remote working symbolise the new normal of work. It is changing the traditional office space with more shared desk areas and smaller meeting and focus areas. The use of workspace pods or kiosks gives employees or users more comfort and privacy in a soundproof environment. Meeting pods and call booths allow companies to save money on office design and construction and are more flexible in terms of office renovations as they are very easy to install or remove depending on the needs of the employees.
