Definitions
An office design without private offices or cubicle walls, intended to foster collaboration but scientifically shown to reduce face-to-face interaction by 70% while destroying the ability to focus. Everyone wears noise-canceling headphones — the universal 'do not disturb' sign.
In plain English: An office without walls or private spaces — supposed to encourage teamwork but mostly just makes it impossible to concentrate.
