This year's Workspace Expo in Paris was held under the theme 'I love my workspace' and was the 10th anniversary edition of the event. More than 19,000 visitors came to meet more than 300 exhibitors.
This year, Hushoffice unveiled a new line of hushFree acoustic pods for work and meetings. These are three new booths providing the freedom to choose where and how to work while maintaining the highest acoustic comfort. The new line of acoustic pods for work and meetings presents an ISO 23351-1:2020 Class A acoustic solution with a completely refreshed interior – new acoustic panels available in nine colours, booths equipped with extremely efficient ventilation with ultra-quiet fans, new 500 lux lighting and flexible interior configuration, and all this to provide users with an acoustically comfortable space in which to work effectively whenever they need focus and comfort in the workplace. This is all encapsulated in three new products: hushFree.S, hushFree.M and hushFree.L
The last two years have changed the employee perceptions of office work and redefined their needs. Our observations and analysis have led us to conclude that today the most important and desirable feature of an office is the freedom to choose where and how to work. It is up to the employee to decide when, where and how they want to work. They choose a location that matches the nature of the work they are doing. Today, it is the office infrastructure that must respond to the current needs of the employee. This is why we decided to introduce a new line of acoustic pods that fit perfectly with these needs
– explains Mateusz Barczyk, Senior Brand Manager at Hushoffice.
We create the office solutions of the future
At Hushoffice, we not only create acoustic pods for working in peace and quiet, but also other flexible office solutions. At this year’s Workspace Expo, we also showcased three products from the complementary Hushoffice furniture collection – hushLock, hushWall and hushSpot.
HushLock is a modern locker system for storing things in the office. These are fully customisable cupboard and cabinet systems, built from modules that adapt to the needs of a changing office and its staff.
HushWall is a mobile partition wall that allows the flexible creation of office zones while providing a vertical working space. The product can be used as a folding wall for multimedia presentations, a mobile partition wall with a dry-wipe board or a mobile partition wall with a felt panel. A new version presented at the fair was the ‘green wall’, which is a green mobile zone divider for the office.
HushSpot is a co-working table for project work available in two options – for 4 or 8 people, depending on the configuration. The table is equipped with a set of power sources that can be configured according to the users’ needs, plus an additional light source. It is equipped with additional compartments for office supplies, plants or decorative items. The hushSpot is an excellent alternative to traditional desks, especially when employees are working in hot-desk mode.
The Workspace Expo brings together furniture manufacturers and design professionals, including from the office equipment industry. The Workspace Expo is of interest to expert office space managers and architects. According to the organisers, this year saw a 23% increase in the number of visitors compared to the 2022 edition – which undoubtedly shows the growing reputation of the fair itself as well as the interest in modern office solutions in this part of Europe. More than 42% of all exhibitors came from outside France, meaning that the Workspace Expo can be called not just a French event, but at least a pan-European event.
