How Nook Was Created

While observing traditional office environments, David O’Coimin noticed a glaring gap: there was no place for people to escape the constant noise and chaos of sensory overload. Whether it was to collaborate in small groups, focus on solo tasks, decompress from sensory overload, or simply reset, offices lacked versatile spaces where individuals could thrive. This need was particularly pressing for neurodiverse individuals who often require calm environments to perform at their best.

Inspired by this gap, David set out to design a solution that would redefine how we use space. The result was Nook – a multi-purpose, mobile pod that caters to the sensory needs of all individuals. Initially envisioned for workplace environments, Nook quickly evolved beyond offices. It became more than just a productivity tool; it became a sanctuary.

Today, Nook Pods are found in some of the most dynamic and high-energy spaces imaginable: Broadway theaters, football and baseball stadiums, schools, shopping malls, and more. These pods offer an oasis in the middle of the bustle – a place to focus, recharge, or find peace.

So, what exactly is a Nook? It’s a space-maximizing, multi-functional pod designed to enhance whatever you’re doing – from working and creating to dreaming and simply being. Nook is made to be a sensory-friendly environment, promoting comfort and well-being. With customizable colors and features, Nook Pods help people feel at ease, no matter where they are.

At the heart of Nook is a mission rooted in care. By creating sanctuaries for everyone, Nook strives to help people be their best selves. Whether you’re seeking calm amidst a busy stadium, focus in an open office or a quiet moment in a school hallway, Nook provides a space for you to thrive.

Explore how Nook Pods can maximize your space. Because everyone deserves a place where they can feel at peace, no matter where they are.
