How to create privacy in an open office?

Smart Solutions for Modern Workspaces

Open offices may boost collaboration—but what about privacy? If you’re searching for ways to create privacy in an open office without sacrificing design or light, there are smart, modern solutions that work.

Quick Answer: How to Create Privacy in an Open Office

You can create privacy in an open office by using:

• Smart glass partitions or walls

• SPACE pods (Office pods with switchable privacy)

• Smart window film for existing glass

• Smart glass doors

For the best results, combine visual and acoustic privacy solutions to create a balanced, functional workspace.

Why Is Privacy a Problem in Open Offices?

Open-plan offices are great for collaboration—but they often lack the privacy needed for:

• Confidential conversations

• Focused work

• Virtual meetings or client calls

• Employee well-being

When employees feel constantly visible or distracted, productivity drops and stress rises. Traditional fixes like curtains or frosted decals often fall short—or look unprofessional.
