The story of Box17 is one of passion, expertise, and a shared vision. Born in Germany from the collaborative spirit of a father-son duo, Steffen and Tim Petzold, our brand represents a unique blend of deep industry knowledge and a forward-thinking engineering mindset.

Founders
& early days

Steffen, with decades of invaluable experience in the office furniture industry, recognized the growing need for focused, quiet spaces. His son, Tim, brought a vibrant enthusiasm for technology and engineering to the table. In 2017, this synergy led to the creation of our very first prototype in a family workshop in Baden-Württemberg.

It was here that the "Trick 17" ethos – our commitment to clever, unconventional solutions – truly began to shape our approach.

The name

Our name, Box17, captures our essence: "Box" signifies our exclusive focus on designing and manufacturing acoustic booths, while "17" draws inspiration from the German saying "Trick 17," representing those unconventional, ingenious solutions that set us apart.

"At Patchwork, we design and operate premium workspaces in the heart of Paris, with particular attention to design, comfort, and the overall experience of our members. As part of our large-scale Sainte-Cécile project, we chose Box17 Phone Booths to provide our members with solutions perfectly suited to their needs for privacy and acoustic comfort. We especially appreciated the quality of the product, its seamless integration into our spaces, and the responsiveness of the Box17 teams throughout the project.

This collaboration helps us deliver on our promise: offering companies a unique work experience that is both functional and inspiring."

Patchwork – Coworking in Paris
The booth works wonderfully

"Big excitement at the coworking space today...the new phone booth has arrived! The Box 1 from Box17 fits perfectly in the front room by the shop window, and thanks to its two glass walls, it still lets the sun in without any problems. Now we have three places to make phone calls (plus the garden, when the weather is as nice as it is today), so we are well equipped. We have already made a test call, and the booth works wonderfully."
