YAKETY YAK Pod grouping

Blog

Here at Yakety Yak Furniture, we aim to provide customer service desks that meet the needs of any library, education or community space. That’s why our pods, desks and support modules are designed to stand alone or group together, offering multiple options for maximum versatility. Even better, they are easy to move and reconfigure as needs evolve. Below, we demonstrate how some of our customers have mixed and matched our 100 Series Pods to create unique customer service areas that suit their individual requirements.

Stand-alone desks

Whether you need a help desk for a small space or want to create a friendly environment, our 100 Series Pods are a terrific option. Their unique design brings life and spontaneity to a space and supports easy interaction. An open form welcomes customers, while responsive electronic height adjustability makes the desk easy to adapt to meet staff and customer needs.
