Yes — visibility from the main working area is one of the strongest predictors of pod utilisation rate. When a pod is visible as part of the natural field of view from a desk, it serves as a daily reminder of its availability, and the decision to use it requires less deliberate planning. Pods that are positioned out of sight — behind columns, in remote alcoves, or around corners — are consistently underused relative to their accessible equivalents, because the “out of sight, out of mind” effect applies strongly to shared workspace resources.
