The Brief
Ben Johnson were selected to design and supply a table and seating solution for NVM’s board and meeting rooms that had the “wow factor”. NVM also required furniture for the open plan areas and operator chairs for the main offices. Any proposed boardroom table solutions had to ensure there were no obstructions (legs) around the perimeter, allowing users to sit comfortably at any location around the table.
Integral cable management with no visible cabling was key, and finishes had to be specified in laminate or MFC, not Veneer. NVM believed the task chair was an integral part of the specification (playing a vital part in supporting staff for multiple hours per day). In terms of allocating budget, a quality ergonomic task chair was key to the brief with a simple desk solution for the open plan area.
