The Possibilities of Privacy

Read More

Would it surprise you to learn that having a variety of workspaces ranks more highly than having a private office?

Steelcase research shows privacy is the #1 employee need today in the office. But privacy is not just about being alone. And a one-size-fits-all approach does not work.

What kind of privacy do you need? Visual? Acoustic? Territorial? Or informational? Addressing these diverse needs requires a holistic solution beyond individual workstations or traditional conference rooms and enclaves. Fully enclosed, shielded, and even open spaces can offer a range of privacy for individuals and teamwork. Having access to the privacy they need makes them a lot happier and more productive at work.

Choice and control in the workplace can help you and your team work better. Swipe below to explore different ways to achieve privacy and read more at the link below

Privacy is possible in the open

Elements such as Steelcase Flex Active
Frames and Acoustic Boundary create
visual and territorial privacy in the open
for teams to work uninterrupted.

Finding focus at your desk

Design elements such as screens, shelving
and strategically oriented workstations
shield employees from distractions in the
open plan without isolating workers.

Making space to connect

Lounge spaces near workstations make
it easy to connect with colleagues for 

an impromptu meeting or to rejuvenate.
Screens create a visual boundary and
keep distractions out.

Seeking solitude

These focus nooks create an intimate
space within a public room. High
screens keep the thinking in and
distractions out.

When you need walls

Enclosed meeting spaces provide a high level of visual and acoustic privacy for both in-person and remote collaboration.
