Hello, dynamic workplace. - [Home](https://nookpod.com/) - Blog Details ![](https://nookpod.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area3-detail.jpg) [Admin](https://nookpod.com/blog/author/admin) January 30 2021 **With their headquarters largely empty amid the pandemic, tech companies are reconfiguring their open plan spaces to appeal to employees when they return, with opportunities for collaboration and focus.** The [Wall Street Journal](https://www.wsj.com/) features the use of Nooks to create the new Dynamic Workspace, as designed by M.Moser Associates in their work for [Okta](https://www.okta.com/) in the article, “Goodbye, open office. Hello, dynamic workplace.” Highlighting how tech companies are reconfiguring their open plan spaces to appeal to employees when they return to work, the piece explores how Okta’s new office layout focuses on collaboration and spaces that limit distraction. [According to an M.Moser spokesperson](https://www.mmoser.com/en/news/2020/9/mmoser-okta-featured-in-the-wall-street-journal) “The human collective is more powerful than ever before and we see the opportunity to greater elevate the purpose of the work environment. As we look to support clients in rethinking future workplaces, there will be no one-size-fits-all solution. The dynamic workplace will provide more flexibility in how people can work when physically together along with a more responsible and strategic use of space.” Read the full article [HERE](https://www.wsj.com/articles/goodbye-open-office-hello-dynamic-workplace-11599883273) and enjoy some photos from the Okta office below. ![](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area3-1024x683.jpeg?width=1024&height=683&name=m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area3-1024x683.jpeg) ![](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area2-1024x683-1.jpeg?width=1024&height=683&name=m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area2-1024x683-1.jpeg) ![](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area-1024x539-1.jpeg?width=1024&height=539&name=m-moser-okta-san-francisco-workplace-interior-breakout-area-1024x539-1.jpeg)   #### [Admin](https://nookpod.com/blog/author/admin) ### Submit Your Comment This is a search field with an auto-suggest feature attached. - There are no suggestions because the search field is empty. #### Popular Post [![Nook Pods are a Great Addition To Portishead Library](https://nookpod.com/hubfs/IMG_9255.jpeg)](https://nookpod.com/blog/portishead-library) #### [Nook Pods are a Great Addition To Portishead Library](https://nookpod.com/blog/portishead-library) February 18, 2026 [![Nook Pods Enhance Calm and Functionality in Bournemouth Hospital](https://nookpod.com/hubfs/NHS%20Dorset%2002-1.jpeg)](https://nookpod.com/blog/nook-pods-enhance-calm-and-functionality-in-bournemouth-hospital) #### [Nook Pods Enhance Calm and Functionality in Bournemouth Hospital](https://nookpod.com/blog/nook-pods-enhance-calm-and-functionality-in-bournemouth-hospital) July 04, 2025 [![Enhancing Educational Spaces with Neuroinclusive Design - PNW BOCES](https://nookpod.com/hubfs/Nook.png)](https://nookpod.com/blog/pnw-boces) #### [Enhancing Educational Spaces with Neuroinclusive Design - PNW BOCES](https://nookpod.com/blog/pnw-boces) July 31, 2024 [![University of Oregon Architecture Department Embraces Nook for Creative and Collaborative Spaces](https://nookpod.com/hubfs/Nook%20(2).png)](https://nookpod.com/blog/university-of-oregon) #### [University of Oregon Architecture Department Embraces Nook for Creative and Collaborative Spaces](https://nookpod.com/blog/university-of-oregon) July 31, 2024 [![How Nook Pods Are Shaping the Future at Gadsden-Etowah County Industrial Development Authority](https://nookpod.com/hubfs/Nook%20(1).png)](https://nookpod.com/blog/gadsden-etowah) #### [How Nook Pods Are Shaping the Future at Gadsden-Etowah County Industrial Development Authority](https://nookpod.com/blog/gadsden-etowah) July 31, 2024 #### Tag Cloud [Case Study](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/case-study) [Neurodiversity](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/neurodiversity) [Inclusive design](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/inclusive-design) [Library](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/library) [Safe space](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/safe-space) [Sensory pod](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/sensory-pod) [healthcare](https://nookpod.com/blog/tag/healthcare) # Mailing List ## About Nook - [About Us](https://nookpod.com/about) - [Collection](https://nookpod.com/products) - [Purchase Options](https://nookpod.com/purchase) - [Blog](https://nookpod.com/blog) - [Sustainability](https://nookpod.com/sustainability) ## Products - [Nook Huddle](https://nookpod.com/huddle) - [Nook Solo](https://nookpod.com/solo) - [Nook Shelter](https://nookpod.com/shelter) - [Sensory Nook](https://nookpod.com/sensory) - [Event Pod Hire](https://nookpod.com/event) ## Explore - [Case Studies](https://nookpod-6354819.hs-sites.com/blog/tag/case-study) - [Gallery](https://nookpod.com/gallery) - [Downloads](https://nookpod.com/downloads) - [FAQs](https://nookpod.com/faq) - [Configurator](https://nookpod.com/comingsoon) ## Contact - [Contact Us](https://nookpod.com/contact) - [Social Media](https://linktr.ee/nookpod) UK: Unit 5, Hither Green Ind Est BS21 6XT NL: Fred Roeske Str 115, 1076EE Amsterdam US: The Mart, Chicago, IL 60654 [Email :](mailto:hello@nookpod.com)[hello@nookpod.com](mailto:hello@nookpod.com) [ Call:](tel:18001234567)[+44 (0) 333 577 6665](tel:+44333%20577%206665)[tel:18001234567](tel:18001234567) Copyright © NOOK 2024.
