In a time when hybrid work and open floor plans dominate offices, Herman Miller has taken a step forward in redefining focus spaces with Bay Work Pod—a functional pod with refined design that meets the need for privacy, comfort, and inclusivity. Bay Work Pod offers a dedicated environment that optimizes ergonomics and acoustics while embodying the brand’s commitment to design-oriented solutions. Designed with hybrid workers in mind, Bay Work Pod allows for seamless transitions between video calls and focused individual work, creating a comfortable, personal workspace.

Inclusive and functional spaces

The booth is available in two sizes, standard and Pro, complying with ADA regulations to ensure accessibility for users with disabilities, thanks to a threshold-free entrance that simplifies movement. Inside Bay Work Pod offers optimized lighting and neutral colors, to also improve the performance of video conferencing,  and built-in fan for air circulation, ensuring a cool and comfortable atmosphere throughout the day. The pod’s skylight also allows natural light to enter without compromising the user’s solitude. Lastly, the equipment is completed with the various flexible seating options: you can choose the solution that best suits your needs from the entire range of Herman Miller ergonomic chairs. 

Privacy, focus, and acoustic excellence

Bay Work Pod stands apart from traditional office booths with its rounded corners and corrugated fabric exterior, which softens visual impact while enhancing sound absorption. This design reduces distractions from surrounding office noise, ensuring the quiet needed for tasks requiring concentration or for confidential calls. Inside the pod, noise pollution is also minimized, creating an acoustically ideal space. Optional frosted glass doors, ceiling finishes, and an occupancy indicator further ensure privacy and focus.

Aesthetics and practicality

Understanding the importance of aesthetics as well as functionality, Herman Miller offers Bay Work Pod in a variety of upholstery and work surface finishes. This customization allows companies to tailor the pods to complement their office style, with options ranging from neutral to more expressive colors. Additional features such as monitor arms and bag hooks add further practicality within the workspace, while a discreet access panel facilitates power connections for all work essentials.

A new standard for hybrid work environments

The focus on customization, inclusivity, and ergonomics creates an optimal environment for those navigating various work contexts. With Bay Work Pod, Herman Miller meets the needs of modern work environments, offering a space where design and functionality come together to support productivity and well-being.
