HONG KONG, June 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- In a fast-paced city like Hong Kong, stress from work and daily life is a common challenge for many residents. Studies have shown that unmanaged stress can negatively impact mental well-being over time, even leading to emotional health issues. To raise awareness about mental and emotional wellness, Contex will launch a limited-time showcase at the "Blessings from the Pureland" Thangka Exhibition at SOGO Kai Tak, presenting two themed Silence Booths that combine meditative mindfulness with immersive sensory experiences, offering visitors a rare moment of calm in the heart of the city.
Meditation Booth: An On-site Space for Relaxation and Reconnection
In line with the event's "mind–body–spirit" theme, Contex will exhibit two experiential Silence Booths for public use. These booths are built with high-performance acoustic insulation to effectively block external noise and distractions, creating a serene, focused environment. In collaboration with wellness brand QeeBoo, Contex introduces a meditation booth experience that invites visitors to slow down, release tension, and reconnect with their inner calm—right within a bustling shopping environment.
Immersive Experience Booth: A Multisensory Approach to Stress Relief
The second booth, Home Pod is designed for home use, features an immersive sensory setup in partnership with age-tech company Medmind. This pod integrates visuals, scent diffusion, and environmental imagery to simulate the feeling of being in nature—promoting deeper relaxation and emotional decompression. Occupying just 1 square metre, Home Pod is compact and space-efficient, ideal for Hong Kong's living conditions. It requires no renovation or building approval and operates with a simple 13A plug, making it plug-and-play ready. Whether used for quiet contemplation, focused study, or working from home, it offers a personal retreat on demand.
Versatile by Design: Flexible for Homes, Workspaces, and Public Environments
Contex Silence Booth is not only suitable for homes but also for offices, schools, commercial spaces, and wellness centres. Built with E0-grade formaldehyde-free eco-materials and certified to ISO standards, it is safe, sustainable, and health-conscious. The booth can be equipped with optional add-ons such as air-conditioning, curtains and frosted glass films. It also supports easy relocation, allowing future flexibility in layout or usage. Whether as a meeting room, personal office, or private mindfulness space, the Silence Booth can be set up quickly without renovation, minimizing disruption and maximizing usability.
