We were lucky that the space we are using already had phone booths built in - our space used to be a resource centre. We had to re-build the wall that was between, but just a little decoration made it all seem kind of homey. https://www.facebook.com/thecleveroffice/photos/pb.588548787932286.-

The U-shaped area serves 2 purposes: 1 - The booth is near one of our windows, and the "slot" keeps the big hood from blocking out a lot of valuable sunlight. 2 - it creates some space between the two hoods so sound is less likely to travel between the two areas that are back to back. Not soundpro
