Consultation Booths For Courts (Intervention)

Stephanie Schiff
Acoustic conscious booths that provide a needed space for the justice-involved to meet with court-appointed counsel and prep for hearings.

For those who cannot afford to hire their own attorney, an initial legal consult often happens in a crowded courthouse corridor minutes before a hearing. This retrofit-ready booth is intended to provide space for these important conversations, to facilitate due process and just outcomes.

The booth walls are covered in felt panels for acoustic absorption. The abstract patterns draw their inspiration from traditional textiles of the cultures in the communities represented by the courts jurisdiction.
