Think about your office, and all the various zones and spaces contained within it.
What’s consistent throughout each environment? If you said “seating,” you’d be correct.
Supportive, intuitive seating is important. Given how much time we spend in our chairs during a normal workday, it’s crucial to have seating that’s tailored for individual needs (or that can adapt accordingly).
Beyond the ergonomic benefits, seating should also complement the in-office experience. In today’s amenities-rich workplaces, organizations everywhere have begun to consider personal well-being to be every bit as important as professional well-being. And that begins with customized comfort and personalized aesthetics.
You know how your office BFF makes the day easier? Flexible task chairs that let you adjust seat height and depth, move your arms to the perfect position, and ease those pesky pressure points are a lot like your favorite co-worker. They just “get” you.
A great one can simultaneously take an individual workstation from blah to beautiful and provide necessary support and comfort required for long periods of sitting.
Versatility is a key component of any great chair, especially one that’s used often or resides in a high traffic, collaborative area.
When thinking about zones or areas of the office, a conference or meeting room is a popular one. It’s a core element of HQ and is often one of the only places guests see, especially if they’re just stopping by for a quick meeting.
Chairs can make a good (or bad) first impression, and they’re reflective of your brand.
As we rethink how an amenities-driven workplace looks and feels, variety and flexibility has become a hot topic. Why? Because everyone has a unique perspective on how to stay productive, focused, and connected.
Contemporary aesthetics and a relaxed vibe are also at the top of the wish list. Employees want to work in a comfortable and inviting space that reminds them of home while still maintaining productivity and efficiency. Second-thought breakrooms have been replaced with incentivized café spaces and familial touchdown spaces, often equipped with inviting soft seating and warm fabrics and textures.
Pairing the right seating with those hallmarks in mind makes all the difference in creating a warm and inspiring work environment.
Here are a few options from HON that fit the bill:
Astir is an exciting option for your open, collaborative or communal spaces throughout the office. We know the right combination of properly sized tables, seats and ottomans is key to creating efficient, open-space meeting areas; Astir provides numerous solutions to do just that and pairs perfectly with Birk™ tables to create collaborative spaces for every zone of the office.
With its unique contours, multi-upholstery options, and relaxed aesthetic, SoCo can achieve a variety of thoughtful linear and organic settings throughout the office. Whether you’re brainstorming with the team in a breakout area or concentrating on your own in the office café, this dynamic seating solution elevates form and function in blended environments. Plus, with integrated power options, optional supportive bolsters, and endless configuration possibilities, this modular lounge series is ideal for productive shared spaces.
As you can see, there’s no shortage of options when you partner with HON to discover new seating for any zone in the office.
Seating not only supports people; it also enhances how particular spaces inspire and helps people innovate and stay productive. Collaborative environments need reliable, durable chairs that power through the pressure of high traffic areas without sacrificing style and comfort.
Private workstations need chairs that support individual needs—from weight-activated control to cool, breathable materials to lumbar support—while encouraging an employee’s unique perspective and style.
And, finally, collaborative spaces and lounge seating are a match made in heaven; a modern aesthetic and relaxed vibe make for welcoming areas for people to gather, whether it’s for a brainstorm, a quick touch-base or simply to take a well-deserved breather.
If you’re looking for the ideal blend of style, comfort, versatility, and affordability, look no further than a HON chair. For more information on seating options and to find your fit, please visit hon.com.
