Holistic concepts
A harmonious space concept does not evolve simply by adding chairs and tables.
For this purpose, we offer sophisticated furnishing systems with which you can
also design open-plan offices down to the very last detail using one coherent
design language. Systems that radiate calm and structure, that promote
concentration and convey the initial impression of the work culture of a
company.Products used: Solis, Logon

Wilkhahn has devoted decades to developing office chairs
that encourage our natural desire to keep our bodies moving
and healthy. Chairs that are exceptional for their ease of
use and superb design. Leading experts in health and sports
science now confirm that traditional ergonomics stipulating
correct and incorrect sitting postures lead up a blind
alley. In fact experts are calling for a pro-active seating
concept that offers our bodies all the freedom of movement
they are capable of. Our bodies know what is right for them
– they just need a chance to prove it. The credo for healthy
seating is to inspire but not tire. After five years’
development, ON sets a new milestone. ON is a fluid
combination of natural, three-dimensional movement and
relaxation that rouses both mind and body.
Trimension lies at the heart of ON. Due to innovative,
synchro-supporting 3D kinematics, the sideways inclination
of the seat and backrest is integrated into a perfect and
synchronous movement concept. Two separate swing plates move
in the same way our thighs do. Ball and socket joints
connect the swing plates to the Flexframe, a combination of
a flexible seat shell and extremely flexible back frame.
Because the kinematics precisely mirror the natural
functions and positions of the hip and knee joints, the
body’s centre of gravity stays in perfect balance – no
matter what posture you adopt or way you move. The joints,
the spine, the dynamic muscles and the entire metabolism are
all activated without causing fatigue. ON activates the
metabolism – which is not just good for our health, but our
level of productivity too.
The chair’s design also embraces the new sense of freedom:
ON is understated, spacious and appealing. ON immediately
conveys trust, value and comfort.
The ON product family offers three backrest heights, three
types of armrests and three types of upholstery. In terms of
function and design, ON ticks all the boxes.
Backrest heights (each adjustable by 60 mm):
medium-height backrest, or high backrest, or high backrest
with headrest.
Armrest pads (all three-dimensionally adjustable):
standard or soft foam pad, or leather upholstered pad.
Types of upholstery: seat and backrest covered in
Fiberflex, or seat fabric cover with additional fabric cover
on the backrest, or management grade upholstery with side
facings and covers in fabric or leather.
Swivel chair frame types: the star base is available
in black throughdyed plastic, or die-cast aluminium
optionally coated, or with a natural polished finish or
bright chromium plated. Bases with coated die-cast aluminium,
natural polished finish or bright chromium plated combine
with swing plates to match.
Visitor chair frame types: Fiberflex and fabric
upholstered types are all stackable and bright chromium
plated, not stackable with management grade upholstery, but
with optional coated finish.

gives guests an initial impression of the communication culture to be
expected.

and interaction is desired here, a round table invites people to take a seat
that includes an interactive display. A mobile catering server for
refreshment and comfortable cantilever chairs underline the informal
character.Products used: Modus, Sito, Logon,

| Communication centre |
| Nowadays, management primarily involves communication.
Many an executive's office is therefore a communication centre for personal
meetings. What a bonus if it includes a table range that can meet the
highest demands: as both a single table and a linked configuration.

| "Stand-up conference" with the InteracTable |
Mangers spend the greater part of their working time
in meetings and regard many of them as a waste of time. How much of this
feeling of unease is due to inadequate interiors, poor preparation and lack
of method?
Today, time is one of the precious resources and should be used optimally by
means of a conscious conference culture. We cannot take the actual handling
of a conference off your hands, but the coordination of furniture: for
example with a space in which participants can gather around a high table.
An ambiance that promotes attentiveness, energy and creativity.

| Office community |
For project work, companies are increasingly organized
as temporary office communities. Depending on the project, the degree of
cooperation undergoes continuous redefinition.
That only works if a flexible interior solution leaves all options open:
concentrated individual work at the desk as well as intensive exchange
within a group.Products used: DinA, Solis F,

| Offer Profile |
Few companies have influenced Germany's office and
contract furniture sector as strongly as Wilkhahn. Over the course of many years
we have adopted our own pioneering standpoint and consistently pursued this.
Wilkhahn currently has a staff of over 600 throughout the world; sales outside
Germany account for over 50% of the total. Even small and medium-sized companies
from a high-wage country can succeed on the international market in spite of
globalization and increasing cost pressure. The main requirement is, however,
clear differentiation from competitors - by means of excellent product quality
and a distinct corporate culture.
Philosophy
See things in perspective. Be attentive. Keep an inquiring mind. We have never
believed in the idea of pure form: whoever designs furniture and interiors,
does, in fact, design his or her environment and human relations. Aesthetics
have always had an ethical dimension for us. For years we have consistently
pursued new paths in design; for years we have been practising fair, responsible
partnership. With nature, with our staff and with the technology which we
employ.
Architecture
An alarming number of people live and work in buildings to which they do not
relate at all. How can harmonious, user-friendly products be made in an
alienated, inhuman environment? A factory building can be more that merely a
machine covered in corrugated iron. We were able to retain two excellent
architects for our corporate architecture in the form of -Frei Otto and Thomas
Herzog. |
