Open-plan offices account for over 60% of office environments in the UK today, with the aim of promoting collaborative work and boosting creativity.

Despite this, workers are frustrated with the everyday distractions that are amplified in an open-plan office. Whether it’s noisy machinery, loud conversations, or a lack of private areas, workers are complaining that the open environment stifles productivity, and in some cases, leads to poor mental wellbeing.
