This has been particularly clear this year. The pandemic has turned our lives upside down – at home, but above all, at work. Hygiene standards that, at the beginning of the year, were taken for granted, no longer comply with new regulations. Meetings are now only possible remotely or digitally, and working from home is part of everyday life for many people. Remote working is proving to be a successful alternative to working in front of a desk and social distancing, the norm.

Every piece of furniture is designed with the fact in mind, that everything could change tomorrow. From chair to partition, from desk to conference table, from colour to surface: König + Neurath’s new products are mobile, modular and adaptable tools for modern working environments. Their clear design makes a compelling argument in the office as well as in the home office, because functionality is as important as comfort.
The new series of Talo.You tables, which builds on König + Neurath’s success and experience, is a flexible system – scalable and expandable. Talo.You can make itself useful as a desk at home or in the office. It can be used as a meeting table, conference table and bench, and is available as a mobile, easily accessible table for standing meetings. Its adjustable height provides additional freedom and its wide range of forms ensures it fits harmoniously into any environment.
Every detail can be configured to personal needs and tastes, from the foot and the frame to the tabletop. Add rollers to make the height-adjustable table mobile, or choose between equally stable A-legs or T-legs. For storing personal belongings, there is a lockable, personal box, either attached to the table itself or as a mobile version you can take with you.
For Talo.You, there are panels available that help users in a variety of ways, for example, to comply with hygiene rules, enable more-focused work or improve acoustic conditions. Mobile modules, room dividers and shelves use the table range to structure workspaces where people can learn, work and talk. The new K+N NOOK visitor and conference chair is just as versatile, also boasting a modular principle as well as comfort.
Various frame shapes, surfaces, armrests, backrests, upholstery, colours and fabrics mean that K+N NOOK is available in 40 different configurations, all of which boast clear design and are big on comfort – thanks in part to its intelligent, movable backrest construction. Each of the chair’s different modules can be replaced, so wear and tear on individual parts is quickly remedied, and the need for buying a new one, alleviated.
K+N NOOK has more to offer than just supporting the backs of office workers and conferences guests. It can, for example, be adapted to a company’s corporate design, and can play both discreet or more central roles within a room layout. It can be easily stored away or stacked until needed next, and – thanks to its modular concept, high-quality materials and clean lines – can fit effortlessly into existing concepts as well as new working environments.
