Cubicle Quiet Shield

TL;DR
- A portable sensory shield for open-plan and shared offices — earplugs, warm lamp, and a visual privacy cue.
- Loop-style filter earplugs — Softens noise, keeps voices audible.
- USB warm clip lamp — Overrides overhead fluorescents.
Predictable auditory input reduces cortisol spikes. A visible ‘do not disturb’ signal offloads social monitoring from working memory.
