Designed by Alena Prokhorova, the Shhh Chair provides ample privacy with its [cocoon-like shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-introvert-chair). This office chair is ideal for shared workspaces. With two height varieties, the Shhh chair acts as a [personal room divider](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-collection). Its body expands into long panels that surround the user with [noise-absorbing material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acoustic-lounge).

When taking a call or working on a focus-requiring task, this privacy chair acts as a sound barrier. Users can opt for one of two heights: the elbow level chair keeps the user focused on their task and allows engagement with others, and the high panel chair acts as a complete privacy barrier. Available in muted beige and brown color schemes, the Shhh Chair fits seamlessly into any design scheme.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Modular Privacy Furniture:** The concept of modular privacy furniture can be expanded to other pieces of furniture and interiors to offer different variations of privacy and focus opportunities in shared spaces.
- **Noise-cancelling Workspaces:** The demand for noise-cancelling workspaces will increase as more people work in open-plan offices, leading to opportunities for innovative solutions that provide privacy and minimize noise disruption.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Office Furniture:** The office furniture industry will need to adapt to the demand for privacy-focused furniture solutions in shared spaces to remain competitive in the market.
- **Workspace Design:** Workspace designers will need to incorporate privacy-focused design solutions that offer modular alternatives for shared spaces to meet the needs of modern workers.
