Noisebridge could use a place where silence is maintained during busy hours. New quiet work rooms in the south west corner of the Noisebridge space; the current location of the Hackershelves. Individual room names TBD.

If the hackershelves can be moved. Build two enclosed quiet rooms with doors and windows for light. Frame out walls with 2x4s and connect 2x8 ceiling joists from top plate to existing south wall frame. Finish with sound proofing and sheet rock. Leave openings for non lockable doors and windows, these can possibly be reused from other projects in the space. If windows and doors that offer greater sound proofing can be sourced, even better.

We create a place where loud activities and busy times in the space don't interrupt hackers that need a low noise environment to work and meet with collaborators. (One of the rooms could be non-reservable). This may also allow more separation between hackers that prefer music while working and those that don't. Increasing the options for places to hack within Noisebridge. The larger of the rooms will also be a good place for the optical instruments.

The materials for the room will not be cheap. People trying to live in the rooms may be an issue.
