DARRAN Launches Honey

contract office marketing

We see that work environments with natural elements lead to a higher level of well being and productivity, which is an important consideration for business in terms of responsibility to its employees and its own bottom line.  By embracing biophilic design, Honey workspace furniture addresses the needs of individual users, their varied work styles, privacy and of course, well-being.

The space-efficient 120 degree planning grid creates a flowing geometry that meanders through a room with endless possibilities for configuring the workspace.  Honey panels are soft and rounded with compound curved surfaces.  The panel height of 55″ gives the right amount of visual and sound privacy without overwhelming the space.

Honey offers open and closed collaborative zones, meeting spaces, lounge, or desking in sitting, standing, or height adjustable, adapting to the way you work.  In addition to work space, Honey has a collection of storage and lounge products that compliment the soft lines of the workspace furniture.  Thoughtfully designed, this collection integrates an open base with height adjustable bases integrated into the panel promoting a light feeling and tidy lines.

Chameleon by DARRAN Furniture

contract office marketing

Chameleon is a curated collection of desking, simple storage and screen solutions that are easy to configure and personalize from a hand-selected palette of wood, felt and acoustic materials.

Like its namesake, Chameleon captures the essence of adaptability. Chameleon is suited to outfit an entire workplace, from making impressions in executive suites to modernizing mobile work terminals. Mark Müller’s design makes the most of your space by supporting private office, touch down stations, meeting areas and cafes with a coordinating selection of seating options. Rounded corners, organic shapes and cushions perfectly balance comfort and productivity.

The strength of Chameleon is that it can be all things depending on specification. The system is configured with desks and storage to connect tasking and teaming. Table desks with solid wood legs are available in a range of fixed heights that gang together or overlaid on credenzas of varying elevations. Stackable units and lean lines create levels of elevation while subtly defining personal space.

Divide space with mobile screens that accommodate a range of colors and materials from markerboards to tackable fabrics.  Mobile pedestals boast a playful, enlarged caster and unique shapes and colors to add flare to mixed solutions outside of the Chameleon family, as well.  Bring the whole space together with shelving that can be as open or private as needed.

Find the price list, spec sheet, Revit symbols and more on the DARRAN Furniture website!  Need specification help?  Give us a call and we will engage DARRAN’s design team to customize Chameleon for your space!
