From huddle rooms to lounges, cafes to WFH spaces, the modern workplace isn’t just evolving, it’s expanding. But in most cases, that’s come at a cost – less comfort, less support, and yes, less productivity. Today, we’re thrilled to launch our latest suite of ergonomic solutions, designed to elevate comfort and collaboration, anywhere work happens: Sedeo – Designed by industry legend Don Chadwick, the Sedeo stool brings a perfect balance of form and function to bar and counter-height surfaces, providing ergonomic support where it's often overlooked and promoting spontaneous, focused collaboration. Trea Family – Featuring a seamless 12° recline mechanism and a contoured shell inspired by nature, Trea instantly adapts to each user’s postural shifts. Now available in a lite task base and high task stool, Trea is ideal for a wide range of applications, from meeting rooms to breakout rooms and beyond. Float Family – Our newly expanded Float Family—including Float Gather and Float Mini with new colors and natural linoleum finish—delivers sit-to-stand versatility for any collaborative space, empowering teams to work comfortably on couches, in tight corners, and anywhere else work takes them. By integrating advanced ergonomics into the newly expanded workplace, we help enhance wellbeing and productivity, while fostering stronger collaborations between team members.
