Where you perch first thing in the morning while sifting through emails may not be where you find yourself project planning later that afternoon. That’s the beauty of an adaptable, dynamic office! Balanced, amenities-rich workplaces are thinking beyond the status quo and embracing environments that evolve as the day unfolds. 

Depending on what those spaces are designed to do, the right task seating is always non-negotiable. From exceptional ergonomic support to personalized aesthetics, your chair significantly impacts your personal and professional well-being. 

While a percentage of employees remain remote, many of us have resumed our early morning commutes. But whether you’re in the office every day or enjoying a hybrid schedule, adjusting to life in the office after time away can be a challenge.

Why? Because the comforts of home are dependable and safe. Home-brewed java, cozy couches, peace and quiet. But something has been missing: Connection to one another. We’re craving well-balanced community spaces that bring us together. 

Since 2022, Somos HNI—a Member Resource Group created to empower, celebrate, and inspire HNI members and Hispanic and Latino communities—has gathered to commemorate National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15-October 15). Established to engage HNI members, their families, and neighborhoods in the contributions, diverse cultures, and extensive histories of American Latino people, the Somos HNI Fiesta kicked off September 3rd and offered attendees a spirited celebration of traditional dance, music, food, and games.

Classroom design is much more than making the best use of space based on instructional goals. Properly implemented, it can serve the needs of students who require a greater degree of support to improve interpersonal skills and achieve academic success.

Modern classrooms look nothing like those just a generation ago. Conformity is out and flexibility is in, with once predictable rows of chairs and desks now replaced by a combination of education furniture solutions that support individual learning along with group collaboration.
