Envelop Desk by Bill Stumpf and Jeff Weber for Herman Miller
Monday, May 9th, 2011Herman Miller has introduced a new desk to their all star line up of home office furniture. Envelop is the ergonomic desk. Herman Miller recognized that everything else in a work environment moves around, adjusts, tilts back, etc. and wanted to apply that flexibility to the one static item in the room – the desk.
Bill Stumpf: designer of Herman Miller’s Ergon chair of 1974 and the ever popular Aeron chair, and Jeff Weber: designer of the Caper chair, are the collaborators behind Envelop.
Envelop has an “infield” section of desk surface that moves forward 7 inches and also pivots down 7 degrees to accommodate the user’s wrist and hand position as he/she leans backwards. The “infield” is soft and flexible allowing the user’s arms to bend the surface as need be for complete comfort and unhindered access.
Measuring only 30 x 45″ (37 x 45″ when expanded), this desk fits into any office or life/work space. It is clean and trim in design with open legs that are adjustable in height and can be ordered with either glides or locking casters. Â This is versatility at its best. This desk could stream breakfast television in the kitchen before work, be wheeled into the living room after dinner for a movie, and stowed away back into the office for some late night paperwork.
Finally, this desk meets Herman Miller’s admirable environmental standards with 32% of its composition consisting of recycled materials and its final product being 53% recyclable.
