About this product
The Jacob Hideaway is a flexible upholstered workstation designed for focus and privacy in open-plan environments.
Wired up and optimised for virtual meetings, Jacob is a smart piece of furniture that enhances the experience of collaborating with people near and far. For any companies grappling with a disjointed hybrid workplace, this solution can bridge the gap.
Combining a desk with either the Jacob Midback or Highback Sofa, this modular solution creates a cocooned zone for individual work or study — ideal for libraries, corporate offices, and university campuses. The soft acoustic wall panels not only provide comfort but also support quiet concentration in shared spaces.
Designed and manufactured in Australia, the Jacob system is made for longevity and change. Its modular design allows for endless configurations and easy re-adaptation over time. Upholstered wall panels come with removable, zip-off covers that can be spot cleaned, dry cleaned, or replaced to maintain a fresh look and feel without the need for full replacement.
Power and data integration can be integrated into each workstation with cable reticulation neatly concealed through the internal wall system. Optional accessories such as shelves, bag hooks, and whiteboards enhance functionality even further.
