RETREAT 1.05 Acoustic Office Pod | Space Efficient Focus Pod for Adelaide Workplaces

Interior designers and workplace consultants specifying acoustic solutions for space constrained commercial fitouts across Adelaide and South Australia consistently face the same challenge. The floor plan needs focus pods but there is not enough open floor area to justify a freestanding symmetrical pod. The RETREAT 1.05 solves that directly. The flat side sits flush against a wall or partition and the tapered side faces the room, which means the pod occupies perimeter space rather than valuable central floor area.

The 32Dw Class B sound reduction rating creates a controlled acoustic environment for focused work, private tasks and concentrated sessions in busy open plan offices. For SA government workplaces, corporate offices and education facilities across South Australia where quiet zones are limited and distraction is a productivity issue, the 1.05 delivers that individual focus space in the most space efficient format in the RETREAT range.

FSC certified timber, CHORD acoustic panels from 75% recycled PET and Greenguard Gold certified materials meet the environmental procurement and indoor air quality requirements that SA government departments and corporate organisations are now routinely including in their fitout specifications. Creative Systems supplies, delivers, assembles and installs across Adelaide and South Australia, working with interior designers and project managers from specification through to installation.

Common Questions:

Why bother with an asymmetrical shape instead of a standard pod?
Symmetrical pods need clear floor space on every side, which limits where they can actually go in a fitout. This one has a flat side and a tapered side, so it sits flush against a wall or into a corner without wasting the perimeter space that a standard shape would.

Does this work as part of a bigger workstation layout, or only as a standalone piece?
It's designed to slot in alongside workstations and partitions as part of a planned layout, not just stand alone in the middle of a floor. Useful when the brief is to keep central floor space open while still fitting in individual focus zones around the edges.

Is this the smallest pod in the range?
Yes, smallest external footprint in the RETREAT line. Still holds the same 32Dw acoustic rating and material specification as the rest of the range despite the compact size.

Is it actually comfortable inside, given how small it is externally?
The internal dimensions are still set up for proper extended individual use, the compact external footprint doesn't translate to a cramped feeling once you're inside, which is the whole point of the asymmetrical design.
