In the recent past, working from home in many countries was an unusual proposition perhaps most associated with being a perk to attract people to a job as opposed to a functional reality.
Now, of course, everything has changed.
In the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, it has been unsafe and impractical for many people to travel into work and sit indoors with others in offices, shops and other buildings. Thus, vast swathes of us have been told to work from home.
Yet, as many of us have found out, working from home isn't always straightforward. Wayward WiFi connections, clunky zoom meetings and background distractions have been part and parcel as we all adapt to our new circumstances.
Now, a new ultra-stylish working from home solution has been unveiled by Autonomous - the Zen Work Pod.
Per PR Newswire, Long Ha, CEO of Autonomous said of the new product;
"We designed the Zen Work Pod for creatives and professionals who work at home but need a separate office space that really captures that feeling of going to work.
"Affordability is just as important to our core philosophy as quality, so we're really excited to have found a solution that meets both criteria."
The Zen Work Pod is a super stylish outbuilding that boasts great flexibility, including providing a calm workspace to get you through the working day without any distraction.
Per the news release in PR Newswire, Autonomous is offering a specially discounted price for limited early bird sign ups at $5400. Thereafter, Maxim reports that the Zen Work Pods will cost $14,900.
PR Newswire gives a nod to the work pod's versatility in their description of the product. They wrote; "The Zen Work Pod's stunning minimalist design complements any outdoor setting and has the potential to transform the way you work from home".
For those wanting to upscale their home working, it just might be worth considering. You can find out more on the Autonomous website, here.
