Meet hilo.work by AgileAcoustics—the world’s first electric height-adjustable acoustic screen system.
hilo.work (patent application # 2505261.4) by AgileAcoustics is a distinctive height-adjustable acoustic screen system—designed for flexibility, built for user choice. Following its recent debut at Clerkenwell Design Week 2025, it’s already catching the attention of industry experts, with some predicting it could be a game-changer for the workplace furniture market.
With hilo.work, users are empowered to take control of their environment. Whether they want to raise the screens for greater privacy and focus, or lower them to encourage collaboration and openness, the system adjusts effortlessly. It can even be configured to change the overall height and feel of a booth—allowing each person to create a space that suits their working style, task, or mood. It’s acoustic design that adapts to you, not the other way around.
We believe the most innovative hilo.work ideas will come directly from the challenges faced by interior designers and building managers—those navigating the real-world demands of privacy, flexibility, and sound control. That’s why we’re actively looking to collaborate with professionals in the field to co-create new solutions. If you’re tackling workplace acoustic or layout issues, we’d love to explore how hilo.work can evolve to meet your needs.
The initial hilo.work range includes three flexible solutions: a pop-up Pod that functions both as a desk and a private Pod; a height-adjustable high-back booth ideal for individual or dual-user work; and a series of linear acoustic dividers to zone open-plan offices without permanent fixtures. Each product has been developed with user empowerment, acoustic comfort, and agile workspace design in mind.
Looking beyond the UK, we see huge potential for hilo.work in international markets where adaptable, acoustic-led workspace solutions are in growing demand. AgileAcoustics is keen to collaborate with like-minded furniture manufacturers and distributors worldwide, so hilo.work can be integrated into workspaces across the globe—bringing user-focused design and acoustic intelligence to offices everywhere
We’re excited about what’s ahead and look forward to collaborating with designers, specifiers, and manufacturers to shape the next generation of workplaces—spaces that are more adaptable, more inclusive, and more acoustically effective than ever before.
