USM Haller for the Home Office

USM Haller modular furniture system

Fritz Haller laid the foundation stone for the USM Haller modular furniture system in 1960: the then USM managing director Paul Schärer commissioned the architect to firstly build and subsequently furnish the new administrative buildings for the Swiss company. True to the principle of "form follows function", Haller and Schärer developed a simple, but all the more sophisticated construction system of tubular steel structures, connectors and metal trays which has gone on to become a genuine design classic and today belongs to the permanent collections of numerous important museums such as the reowned MoMA New York. Although the demand for USM furniture shows no sign of ebbing, the company is by no means resting on its laurels, but rather is responding with innovative ideas such as the USM Haller E System with clever LED technology to meet new requirements and needs.


Planning offices with USM

Plan and furnish offices with USM

Almost limitless modularity, practical storage space, timeless design: the Swiss manufacturer quickly took on a pioneering role, especially in the office area. For decades, large law firms, medical practices and many other industries have been relying on USM office furniture and equipping their premises with open or lockable filing cabinets, flexible mobile containers and representative reception counters. In addition to classic companies, dynamic start-ups and young companies from the creative industry have long since discovered USM design classics for themselves. USM furniture can be planned with the smow USM configurator according to your individual requirements and can be reconfigured again and again as required, so it grows with you, and can thus react flexibly and easily to spatial or economic changes. Thanks to its inherent flexibility, entire offices, departments or companies can also be furnished with USM: Our smow USM experts in the online shop and at our Germany-wide stores will be happy to assist you with the planning until implementation.

USM Haller furniture in domestic spaces

Although USM Haller furniture was originally designed as office furniture, it has long since established itself in domestic arenas. The classic USM Sideboard, USM shelving or the USM side table adorn numerous living rooms and bedrooms and offer not only practical storage space for books, records or clothing, but also delight their owners with their timeless design and clear design language. Thanks to their modular character, USM furniture can be adapted to various spatial conditions and individual needs and - from the kitchen counter to the cloakroom to the children's furniture - always allow for the ideal furnishing solution.

#officetour Milestones – The Modern Efficiency Desk

...In his 1917 novel The Job Sinclair Lewis makes note of a group of ambitious young clerks who work in the offices at Pemberton - "the greatest manufactory of drugs and toilet articles in the world" - and who sat at "shiny, flat-topped desks in rows"... while that may be a valid response today, in 1917 ambitious young clerks sitting at rows of "shiny, flat-topped desks" were, when not a revolution, then a relative novelty, and for all were highly indicative of a period of fundamental evolution and development in understandings of the office, of office work, of office workers, of office desks...
