The [Globus Scriptorium](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/globus-basel) is quite the enviable pod for those who love their privacy while plinking away at the computer. The pristine white orb opens up to reveal a black interior which houses your work space, including a desk and [cozy chair](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/living-collection). The Globus Scriptorium was designed by Dutchman Michiel van der Kley who clearly knows a thing or two about designing for the modern day computer addict. "The foam-molded seat padded luxuriously with leather can swivel a complete 180 degrees and keeps you as comfortable as you can be," EliteChoice says. If it weren't for the $7,000 price tag, I'd ask you to put my name down on the order list! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 2% | Activity: 70% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Privacy Pods:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in creating compact and private workspaces for individuals. - **Ergonomic Office Furniture:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in designing comfortable and adjustable furniture for long hours of work. - **Luxury Office Accessories:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in developing high-end and luxurious office products to enhance the work environment. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture:** The furniture industry can explore new designs and materials to create efficient and stylish privacy pods. - **Office Supplies:** The office supplies industry can develop ergonomic accessories and furniture to improve comfort and productivity. - **Luxury Goods:** The luxury goods industry can introduce premium office accessories to cater to affluent professionals seeking high-end workspaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [First-Class Working Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kabin-work-pod.md) - [Personal Cubicle Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ma-camilla-isabel-reyes.md) - [Compact Work Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dragon-tiny-homes-1.md) - [Minimalist Private Office Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solarlux-soundproof-space.md) - [Modern Office Furniture Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steelcase-3.md) - [Workplace Wellness Capsule Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iris-meditation-pod.md) - [Customizable Office Privacy Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bay-work-pod.md) - [Privacy Workspace Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kabin.md) - [Hybrid Office Desk Pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/microsoft-flowspace.md)
