USM and UNStudio explore "third space" between home and office with Haller modular furniture



Haller modular furniture can be used to create a "third space" between the workplace and the home, say Thomas Dienes of USM and Ren Yee of UNStudio in this movie produced by Dezeen during Milan design week.
For the second consecutive year, Swiss furniture company USM enlisted Dutch architecture office UNStudio to create a booth at Salone del Mobile for the exhibition of its modular products.
The exhibition explored how informal environments ? from cafes and hotel lobbies, to hotel lobbies and parks ? are increasingly becoming places of work. Dienes refers to these as the third space.
UNStudio designed USM's Salone del Mobile booth
Called Making Places, the exhibition was divided into four zones, delineated by USM's signature Haller furniture system. Originally designed in 1963 by Swiss architect Fritz Haller and engineer Paul Schärer, the system comprises three fundamental components: steel tubes, ball-shaped fixtures and adjustable connecting inserts.
The booth showed Haller modular furniture used in informal workspaces
Once assembled, the basic Haller frame can be scaled up and reconfigured according to the requirements of the user, as USM demonstrated at last year's Salone del Mobile by housing its booth within a giant Haller grid.
This year, Haller units featured throughout the installation but were customised with additional USM products such as soundproof panels and table tops, in order to create four distinct zones.
