Certified Autism Resource (IBCCES). ## Nook in brief ### What does Nook make? - **Nook Solo**: a one-person booth with a door, for calls and focus work. - **Nook Huddle**: a semi-open meeting pod for two or four people. - **Nook Shelter**: an open, accessible pod. - **Sensory Nook**: a certified sensory support space for neurodivergent people. - **Event pods**: brandable Nooks hired for conferences and exhibitions. ### What makes a Nook different? Most pods try to shut the world out. A Nook gives enough quiet to focus, talk privately or calm down, while you stay aware of what is going on around you. Its alcove gives refuge and prospect: secluded and secure, but still able to see and hear the room. ### Who uses Nook? Workplaces, schools and colleges, NHS hospitals, public libraries, conferences and exhibitions, and sports stadiums. ### Is it certified? Yes. The Sensory Nook is recognised as a Certified Autism Resource by IBCCES. ### Is it sustainable? Nooks are built to last, with parts designed to be repaired and replaced rather than thrown away, and event pods are reused event after event. 10 years in, to the best of our knowledge, there is not a single Nook in landfill. Even damaged parts are used to heat our factory. ### Where is Nook based? Nook Pod Ltd is based in the UK, with a base in Amsterdam and a US distribution partner. Nook was founded by designer David O'Coimin. ### Is Nook the Barnes & Noble e-reader? No. Nook Pod Ltd makes pods and booths. It is not connected to the Nook e-reader.

Trusted by the NHS, universities and colleges across the UK and Europe, schools, public libraries, SMEs, corporate offices, event organisers and venues, and professional sports stadiums. ### Key facts - Company: Nook Pod Ltd - Made in the UK - Pods from £3,000; buy, rent, pre-loved or hire for events - Certified Autism Resource (IBCCES) - UK: Unit 5, Hither Green Industrial Estate, BS21 6XT - NL: Amsterdam - Email: hello@nookpod.com [🛒 Get Quote](https://nookpod.com/quote?hsLang=en) [📁 Documentation](https://nookpod.com/downloads?hsLang=en) # Gallery ![Nook pods at the Barbican](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/barbican_290.jpg?width=1200&length=1200&name=barbican_290.jpg) ![Nook pods at the Barbican](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Nook_Barbican_IMG_8907.jpeg?width=1200&length=1200&name=Nook_Barbican_IMG_8907.jpeg) ![Nook Huddle pod](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Huddle%20Pod-2.png?width=1200&length=1200&name=Huddle%20Pod-2.png) ![Nook pods at the Barbican](https://nookpod.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Nook_Barbican_IMG_8776-depth-of-field.png?width=1200&length=1200&name=Nook_Barbican_IMG_8776-depth-of-field.png) # Mailing List ## About Nook - [About Us](https://nookpod.com/about?hsLang=en) - [Collection](https://nookpod.com/products?hsLang=en) - [Purchase Options](https://nookpod.com/purchase?hsLang=en) - [Blog](https://nookpod.com/blog?hsLang=en) - [Sustainability](https://nookpod.com/sustainability?hsLang=en) ## Products - [Event Pod Hire](https://nookpod.com/event?hsLang=en) - [Nook Huddle](https://nookpod.com/huddle?hsLang=en) - [Nook Solo](https://nookpod.com/solo?hsLang=en) - [Nook Shelter](https://nookpod.com/shelter?hsLang=en) - [Sensory Nook](https://nookpod.com/sensory?hsLang=en) ## Explore - [Case Studies](https://nookpod-6354819.hs-sites.com/blog/tag/case-study?hsLang=en) - [Gallery](https://nookpod.com/gallery?hsLang=en) - [Downloads](https://nookpod.com/downloads?hsLang=en) - [FAQs](https://nookpod.com/faq?hsLang=en) - [Configurator](https://nookpod.com/configurator?hsLang=en) ## Contact - [Contact Us](https://nookpod.com/contact?hsLang=en) - [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 2027.
