The demands of commercial interiors have evolved radically in recent years and as a result, approaches to office design have had to adapt, modernise, and cater for hybrid and dispersed teams. We stay at the forefront of these innovations, to provide organisations with transformative office interior solutions in Manchester, Liverpool and across the North-West.
Technology has transformed how we work. Many organisations are moving away from traditional business and office models, embracing change and reinvigorating working practices with smart office solutions. Penketh Group partners with leading brands to bring you the most innovative workplace technology advancements, helping your office collaborate, create, share information quickly and achieve your goals.
There are two fundamental factors driving a surge in demand for office privacy pods and phone booths; first, the rise in popularity of the open plan office, and secondly, a propelled shift towards a hybrid approach to work, triggered by the pandemic. While the first influence has been a slower movement over several years, the second has caused a monumental shift in behaviour, and combined, these two determinants have led to a bit of a privacy crisis.
Office phone booth
With many forward-thinking organisations actively supporting and encouraging a hybrid approach to work, more of our meetings, interactions and conversations with colleagues, contacts and business partners now take place across digital means such as Zoom® or Microsoft Teams. ® An office phone booth provides a quiet spot that affords greater levels of privacy when taking phone calls or having meetings through the screen.
Can be combined with a room or space booking solution which is perfect for pre-scheduled meetings and avoids the wasted time that is so often created when people need to find a quiet office space to take a call
Acoustic properties keep unwanted office noise at bay, and ensure that your conversations remain private
There are a wide range of options in various sizes, meaning they can be added to an open plan office, or even in quiet corners and corridors

Office privacy pod
If your organisation loves the concept of the open plan office but recognises that private and focus spaces are fundamental in the overall office environment, then stylish privacy pods are ‘just the ticket.’ These freestanding or fixed pods are soundproof and can accommodate individuals or small teams who need to come together to meet or collaborate. Research indicates that we are typically 15% less productive when working in an open plan office, therefore you can see why these nifty pods are so popular.
The privacy pods are very easy to install, and as they don’t require any structural support, they can be reconfigured as needed
Presents an ideal opportunity to increase the number of meeting and focus spaces, without the need of embarking on a full refurbishment project

Office booth
When you get distracted, it takes 20 minutes to regain focus and get back on track with your work, so what with the constant calls, conversations, and questions, its clear to see why workers can often struggle to concentrate. It can be particularly challenging for people completing mentally demanding tasks that require a certain level of focus, or for those working toward tight deadlines, causing frustration which leads to stress and anxiety and further impedes our ability to focus.
When people have access to a range of spaces that support both focused and collaborative work, free from interruptions, stress levels are reduced, and people are typically happier and more engaged
Creating spaces where people can breakaway from their desk to meet with colleagues encourages movement and aids concentration
The addition of integrated power, supports the flow of work without the risk of devices and laptops running out of battery
