always
seeks to anticipate what will come next. Nowhere is that more
important than in desking systems where technology defines the way
we work and the challenge is to create a physical environment with
a life cycle of five to ten years while appreciating that the
technology may be obsolete in two. The right choice of desking is
therefore of prime importance. Frequently the solution to the
problem lies in how well a workspace can be adapted to various
requirements. Progressive furniture, whether loose-fit or
structured systems, address this need for adaptability in a
variety of ways and enable Dovetail, working with your facilities
manager, architect or designer to meet the changing needs of your
business with products from KnollScope,
KnollLandscape, USM Haller,
Bulo, Eleven 22,
W J White, Techo and others.

Knoll
KnollScope is a range of integrated office elements that lets you
decide what's important to you. It is not a pre-defined product
system that locks down your options. It opens up the possibilities
because the range has been developed and expanded in response to
the way work patterns are changing. KnollScope enables individuals
and organisations to exercise choice, by taking a new approach to
office furniture. |

Modern organisations, under pressure to
increase productivity and maximise margins, have to pay careful
attention to work flow. Landscape, which can build from the
simplest horizontal surface to the most sophisticated workstation,
offers a vast range of business solutions; mobility and ‘reconfigurability’
are the themes, right down to the accessories. Landscape
guarantees the smooth flow of work in office or home – and adds
delight in the process. |

USM
Haller Developed in collaboration with the
architect Fritz Haller, this range of table-desks co-ordinates
beautifully with the modular storage system of the same name (see
Storage). The elegant simplicity of construction and materials is
complemented by a range of carefully designed accessories for the
modern office such as CPU holders and cable management. |

Bulo
The M2 concept originates from the
fundamental shifts in the nature of office work. Due to the
emergence of technology, the computer screen has become central in
information transmission and display. The “floating” desk top
allows unlimited leg room and allows its user to sit at it and
work from three different sides, and the height is adjusted by
metal rings under the work surface. |

Eleven
22 A radically innovative new office system from
USM in Switzerland, this space-saving 'framework for change'
is both functional and flexible. The vertical 'door' frames are
used to support all the elements - including uplighting -
and offer an exciting new approach to the division of space. Organisations
prepared to start with a "clean sheet of paper" should
take a look at Eleven 22. |

Rexite
Rino Pirovano, co-creator of the company summarises the philosophy
thus : "To create objects that are simple but not banal,
original but not bizarre". While a sense of irony often
guides choice, essential criteria are careful attention to
materials and rigorous concern for ergonomics. Rexite makes
it possible to create personalised environments of functional
but unique objects. |
