Jacob Retreat - Work

The Jacob Retreat is a flexible upholstered workstation designed for focus and privacy for collaborative work in open-plan environments - Available in both a 4 and 6 seater setting.

Wired up and optimised for both in-person and 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.

Two Jacob two-seater midback or highback sofas are transformed into an upholstered booth with an infill panel and the addition of a freestanding table. This cosy solution creates a cocooned zone for collaborative work— 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. 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 disc base to the floor.

Adding optional accessories such as a television or whiteboard to the infill panel enhances the functionality of the Retreat. We recommend a 32 inch television screen.
