RETREAT 2.3 Six Person Acoustic Meeting Pod | Adelaide Office Solutions
Open plan offices are great for collaboration until someone needs to have an actual meeting. The RETREAT 2.3 solves that problem properly. A fully enclosed six person acoustic meeting pod that creates a dedicated private space within your existing floor plan, without the cost or disruption of building traditional meeting rooms.
The shift to hybrid working has created a specific problem in commercial offices across Adelaide and South Australia. Teams need spaces that work for video conferencing, focused discussion and collaborative sessions, but most open plan floors were never designed with that in mind. The RETREAT 2.3 is what interior designers and workplace consultants are increasingly specifying because it delivers genuine acoustic performance without touching a single wall.
The 35Dw Class B sound reduction rating means conversations inside the pod stay inside the pod. For teams working on sensitive discussions, client calls or video conferencing in a busy Adelaide CBD office or government workplace, that level of acoustic separation makes a real functional difference. Integrated AV and video conferencing options make it suitable for hybrid meeting requirements rather than just informal conversations.
The sustainability credentials meet the environmental procurement requirements that SA government departments, corporate organisations and education facilities now include in their fitout briefs. FSC certified timber construction, CHORD acoustic panels made from 75% recycled PET and Greenguard Gold certification for indoor air quality cover all three. Creative Systems supplies, delivers, assembles and installs across Adelaide and South Australia, working with designers and project managers on commercial fit outs of all sizes.

Common Questions:
What does a 35Dw sound rating actually mean in practice?
Dw is the weighted index for how well an enclosure reduces airborne sound. A 35Dw Class B rating means a conversation inside stays inside, and the surrounding open plan noise doesn't bleed in either way. For video calls or anything sensitive, that's the difference between a pod that's genuinely private and one that's just a glass box.
Is it worth caring about the FSC and Greenguard certifications, or just box ticking?
Depends on the project. FSC confirms the timber comes from responsibly managed forests, which a lot of SA government and corporate fitout briefs now require outright. Greenguard Gold covers indoor air quality, increasingly relevant for any enclosed space people sit inside for extended periods.
Can this actually run a proper video call setup, or is it just a quiet room?
It supports integrated AV and video conferencing, so it's built for hybrid meeting use specifically, not just somewhere quiet to talk. Internal layout can be configured depending on whether the space needs to run formal presentations or just collaborative sessions.
Does this need any construction work to install?
No, that's the point. It drops into an existing open plan floor without touching a wall, which is a big part of why it's being specified over building an actual meeting room.
