About this product

The Jacob takes inspiration from Koskela’s iconic Jake chair with its tubular steel frame that can be powder coated in a range of Koskela colours.

This contrasting steel frame is the base for the soft upholstered wall panels of the Jacob system, which can be customised to create endless configurations that can be re-adapted depending on an organisation’s needs.

The Jacob Hideaway is ideal for focused individual work. This product integrates a desk with the Jacob midback or highback sofa to create an upholstered workstation.

Power and data can be integrated into each workstation, with standard provision for cable reticulation through the wall system. The Jacob is also equipped with removable covers.

Product Features

Better For The Environment

When designing Jacob, Koskela’s industrial designers took on the challenge of making Jacob’s components repairable or replaceable, so the product can be maintained and last much longer.

A major innovation is the removable covers, which is a unique feature for this type of product within the market. Easily removed, the covers can be regularly dry-cleaned and after several years replaced, to keep the product looking like new.

Made Right Here, Right Now

Over our 21-year history, Koskela has developed trusted relationships with Australian manufacturers. Not only are we proud to support local jobs, but we also don’t compromise on labour conditions. The skilled craftspeople who make our furniture are fairly remunerated and we stand by their work with a 7-year warranty.

Manufacturing onshore also means we can make and deliver Jacob much faster – just 8 weeks – the fastest lead time in the market. Two times faster* and 25 percent less expensive* than building a meeting room from scratch.

*Compared to a fixed, 4-person meeting room with standard finishes.

Quiet

Essential to the success of the post-pandemic workplace is bridging the digital divide. While physical spaces can be reconfigured for collaboration, there remains a need to engage with people who are working remotely. When cleverly integrated, technology can seamlessly connect the physical and digital.

Jacob booths can be specified with power, data and AV that enables people to plug-in and play. Concealed cabling is wired to the source. Built-in power boxes can offer a range of connections. Koskela is also working with a specialist AV partner to offer a package catered to booths with a UHD screen and camera, plus a full range speaker.

As part of Koskela’s aftercare program, hardware can be updated when the technology advances. Wired up and optimised for virtual meetings, Jacob is a smart piece of furniture that enormously 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.

We recognise that the long-term durability of Koskela’s furniture is a critical success factor for your project. Throughout Koskela’s 7-year Warranty, if you do require assistance or maintenance, reach out to us and we can visit site and perform a Maintenance Service.  

During the visit, our skilled Maintenance team will ensure you are happy with the installation. If any structural defects become apparent during a Maintenance visit, the team will rectify the issue on the spot, or lodge a job and organise its repair within 30 days.  

We will create a Maintenance report for you, which itemises your Koskela furniture and makes recommendations for refurbishments that occur due to wear and tear. Ongoing maintenance will improve and extend the quality use of your furniture. 

At the core of Koskela’s enviro conscious policy is our commitment to make high-quality products that last for years and can be repaired if something goes wrong.

All Koskela products are warranted against defects in materials and workmanship under conditions of normal and proper usage for 7 years from the date of purchase—this warranty transfers to whoever owns the product. After this time, if something does go wrong, you can contact Koskela customer service and we’ll let you know if we can fix it for a reasonable cost.
