They had decades ago: they're called "cubicles". The open office I sit in now is no more dense than the compact cubicle I had to sit in about 20 years ago. It was a lot quieter too.
- jitl 3y agoCubicles are not as dense as the open office plan we use. Our desks are about 1.8 office chairs wide, never seen a cubicle that small.
- shiroiushi 3y agoThat just sounds like hell. The densest cubicles I used (just before the open office fad took over) were, IIRC, 6 by 9 feet. The company previous had 9x9 cubicles but shrunk them to pack more people in. The 9x9 cubicles were actually quite nice as long as you didn't have a building column in the middle of yours.
