Question 1

When will the Zenbooth be available at The Works?

Accepted Answer

We're being told to expect a ~3 week delivery, so Late October 2023 sounds like a possible delivery window.

Question 2

Where will the new booth be located?

Accepted Answer

We've identified 3 possible locations for the new booth. The preferred location is at the end of the existing call booths near Office 7 and 8.

We'll install it there, then for safety and ADA compliance, take a look at the outward door swing (we don't want a blind corner where someone walking by gets hit with the door).

One of the reasons we selected this model (there are a lot manufacturers of these privacy booths), is due to the dimensions. Booths only a few inches wider wouldn't work for us.

Question 3

Will the Booth be available to everyone?

Accepted Answer

We are working out the accessibility details at the moment.

For the first month or so, we'll make the booth available to all members. After the 1st month we're likely to go to a booking system where non-members can book a day pass from us with the option of reserving the Zenbooth for a certain time period.

This isn't set in stone, but the initial draft of the Zenbooth usage policy may end up similar to this:

Some of our existing membership plans will have a monthly allotment of hours for the Booth.
The booth will have a booking calendar, similar to the conference rooms, so members and non-members can check availability and book
For members who've exhausted any monthly hours they have in their membership plan, there will be a way to book at a low hourly rate (less than a cup of Starbucks Coffee per hour)
Non-members who book a Day Pass with us will also be able to book time in the booth

Question 4

Does the booth have frosted glass for privacy, like the 3 existing privacy booths?

Accepted Answer

Surprisingly no. This seems to be the norm for the booths, we looked at many booths from different manufacturers, an none had frosted glass (even as an add-on option).

Most manufacturers recommend that we apply our own frosted glass, which is what we're likely to do. (see the glass wall on the Higley Room for an example of the applied frost)

We're thinking that we'll frost most of the glass, leaving a small section at the bottom clear. That way the member using the booth isn't making awkward eye contact with others outside of the booth......but those outside can still see a little movement at the bottom of the glass indicating that the booth is occupied.
