Akunok acoustic seating by Maja Ganszyniec for Abstracta

Dezeen Showroom: designer Maja Ganszyniec and Swedish brand Abstracta have created a soft seating range called Akunok, intended to provide acoustic seclusion in open environments.

The Akunok seating was created by Abstracta to tackle two contemporary workplace challenges: improving soundscapes for increased well-being and creating quiet spaces for focused work.

The approach taken is one that involves creating an "acoustic nook" – a phrase that inspired the collection's name.
