The Nook room divers are flatpacked, making them easy to store. The collection of desk and room dividers are made from repurposed cardboard shipping containers to encourage sustainability and upcycling within the home and furniture industry,
Patrycja Gorzela's privacy partition design came out of a competition held by Just Booth and the Academy of Fine Arts. The designer created two Nook sizes and aimed to help alleviate distractions at work. Gorzela conceptualized the collection as a means to help workers retain quiet concentration time during the busy workday. Users can place the smaller sizes on desks to create a small working zone, while the large divers separate the room into private working zones designated for quiet time.
