Having worked with Humanscale for 20 years, featuring their products in projects across the region, One Space's  designers developed a finely tuned appreciation of the global furniture company's mission, ethos, and brand identity — a foundation the team brought to this showroom design for Humanscale's APAC Headquarters in Singapore in collaboration with S&techs Construction.

Underscoring Humanscale’s commitment to sustainability, adaptive re-use and material innovation, a street-level, double-frontage heritage shophouse in one of Singapore’s most vibrant neighbourhoods proved ideal for their needs.
 Inspired by Humanscale's belief that great design should be both enduring and deeply human, One Space worked closely with the client's New York–based in-house product designer and Asia leadership team to transform the rugged interior into a space of understated clarity and simplicity — a true reflection of the company’s philosophy.

Originally divided into two units, the 3,300 sq ft combined space lacked a central anchor. By removing the non-structural wall that divided the space, the designers connected the Showroom and Office to highlight the pragmatic value Humanscale products bring to daily work life. 
As frequent hosting of architects, designers and clients is a core business driver, F&B-style hospitality became essential. The piéce-de-résistance is the minimalist long bar at the heart of the space, bridging structural columns to ground this feature within the room. Soundproofed, glass-fronted meeting rooms at the rear of the showroom support the privacy needs of any corporate HQ.

The showroom also features a dedicated zone for Kvadrat, Humanscale's global partner for planet-positive textiles. This convivial setting gives purposeful expression of Kvadrat's elegant colours, user-friendly textures, attractive patterns and sustainability innovations.
