Our furniture is all about people

We spend hours in contact with furniture every day. It affects our mood, focus, and even confidence. The way we sit, stand, perch, or recline can either support or hinder wellbeing. Good design recognises this and creates spaces that respond to people, not just tasks.

Standing encourages movement and alertness. It improves posture, boosts energy, and supports creativity. Standing also promotes confidence and engagement - people are more likely to interact, share ideas, and stay focused when upright. It’s a posture that signals readiness and helps energise group dynamics.

Perching, halfway between sitting and standing, engages core muscles and improves breathing. It’s ideal for short bursts of concentration and quick transitions. The open pelvic angle reduces slouching and supports better posture, while the ease of moving away from a perch makes it practical for agile work settings.

Formal sitting helps us concentrate. When posture is aligned, the spine is supported, muscles relax and the mind stays sharp. This position is essential for focused work and tasks that require precision. It’s the posture most associated with productivity and structure.

Relaxed seating opens up the body and encourages informal conversation. It’s perfect for collaborative spaces where listening and sharing matter. Low tables and soft seating create a sense of openness and ease, helping people feel comfortable and connected.

Reclining supports reflection. It changes physical perspective and can unlock creative thinking. This posture invites pause and deeper thought, making it valuable for brainstorming or restorative breaks.

Each posture has a purpose. By designing furniture that supports these natural shifts, we create environments that feel intuitive and energising. The goal is simple: spaces that help people work better, connect more easily and feel comfortable throughout the day.
