Celebrating ergonomics, movement and material intelligence through product, people and place, Humanscale returns to Clerkenwell Design Week from 19th–21st May 2026 with an immersive showroom experience centred around ergonomic design and expert insight.
At the heart of the programme will be a series of informal drop-in sessions hosted by two of Humanscale’s global design leaders: Sergio Silva, Vice President Design and Innovation and Mark Consolla, Vice President of Product Management.
Taking place across all three days of the festival, the sessions invite architects, interior designers and workplace specialists to engage directly with the team behind some of Humanscale’s most influential & exciting new products.
Visitors will have the opportunity to explore the thinking behind Humanscale’s approach to ergonomics, from early concept development and material intelligence to engineering, sustainability and long-term product performance. The conversations will offer rare insight into how ergonomics, movement and human wellbeing are translated into design solutions for contemporary workspaces. Drawing on decades of global experience, the pair will share guidance on designing healthier work environments, improving posture and movement at work, and applying ergonomic thinking to modern workplace design.
These sessions will offer a rare opportunity for the design community attending Clerkenwell Design Week to converse directly with two leading experts and explore how ergonomics can support the future of work.
An immersive showroom experience
Humanscale’s Clerkenwell showroom will transform into a relaxed yet purposeful environment. The space will invite visitors to experience the brand’s philosophy through informal hospitality, interactive moments and conversations around ergonomics, sustainability and product longevity.
Movement will be a key theme throughout the showroom experience, reflected in a curated selection of Humanscale’s latest seating and workplace innovations.
Diffrient Lounge
Among the highlights is the Diffrient Lounge, a refined evolution of a concept originally envisioned more than two decades ago by legendary designer Niels Diffrient. Reimagined by the Humanscale Design Studio for today’s hybrid environments, the Diffrient Lounge sets a new benchmark for lounge seating. Balancing residential comfort with workplace performance, the chair intuitively responds to the body, encouraging natural movement while supporting work, relaxation and social interaction across a range of interior contexts.
eFloat Quattro
Also on display is the eFloat Quattro, Humanscale’s premium four-leg height-adjustable desk engineered to support wellbeing through ergonomic precision and smooth, seamless movement. Clean lines and carefully selected materials give the desk a refined architectural presence, while its environmental credentials set a new benchmark for responsible manufacturing. The award-winning table range is being extended to include eFloat Quattro Meeting Tables that enable fast, frictionless collaboration for today’s hybrid workplace. [AC1] Whether it’s a huddle in the open office, a hybrid meeting room, or an executive workspace, eFloat Quattro Meeting Tables give you a turnkey meeting space that just works.
eFloat Quattro tables are 99% recyclable and use non-toxic, PVC-free polyurethane cabling, demonstrating Humanscale’s ongoing commitment to sustainable product development.
