Humanscale

Founded in 1983 by CEO Robert King, HUMANSCALE is a leader in office design and ergonomics, focusing on high-performance office furniture that adapts workstations to the preferences of the user rather than the other way around. Following a design philosophy of supporting healthy, active ways of working, HUMANSCALE is a global leader in ergonomics in the workplace, designing easy-to-use products that improve comfort, health, and happiness in office workers. Headquartered in New York, HUMANSCALE began its legacy in workplace ergonomics back in the 1990s with a set of articulating keyboard systems, a major revolution in the day to day computer user that relieves the long-term health risks of these workers. With the introduction of the Freedom chair in 1999, featuring a method of using the sitter’s body weight to automatically tailor its ergonomic support, HUMANSCALE cemented its reputation of constantly reimagining how ergonomics should be designed in office furniture. This unprecedented level of custom support followed suit in HUMANSCALE’s following product lines as well. Following their success, HUMANSCALE has locations in more than 28 countries, and is even featured in popular TV shows and films, such as The Newsroom, New Girl, 24, and Mission: Impossible III. HUMANSCALE reached their well-regarded status by focusing on an airtight design philosophy, always focusing on a performance-centric design at the core of every creation. By keeping designs simple, focusing on maximum comfort and long product life with a minimal ecological footprint, the result of their efforts is elegant, intuitive furniture that is as easy to use as it is easy on the eyes. HUMANSCALE continues to provide inventive, user-focused designs today, including products like the Element Disc LED task light and the QuickStand height adjustable workstation. As a definitive leader in intelligent, ergonomic design and well-crafted products, HUMANSCALE is a reliable provider of perfected office furniture.
