Desk Space Planning — Expert Answer
How do I create zones in an open office to reduce noise and distraction?
Zone-based open office planning groups workstations by activity type: focus work zones (private, quiet, smaller footprint desks), collaboration zones (shared surfaces, adjacent to meeting rooms), and communication zones (near the entrance). Physical separation with low panels (42"–48" height) reduces visual distraction. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we pair desk configurations with panel systems to create effective zones — call 1-800-460-0858.
