Humanscale Brings Global Design Leaders to Clerkenwell Design Week

Celebrating ergonomics, movement and material intelligence through product, people and place, Humanscale returns to Clerkenwell Design Week from 19–21 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, VP Design and Innovation and Mark Consolla, VP 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 chance 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 over 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. 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.

M/Class Monitor Arms

Completing the line-up is M/Class, the latest evolution of Humanscale's iconic monitor arm system. The M/Class series is the world's best-selling monitor arm collection, trusted by 98% of Fortune 500 companies. Designed to enhance comfort, organisation and performance, the system allows effortless adjustment of screen height, depth and orientation, helping users maintain healthy posture and reduce strain on the neck, shoulders and spine. Recently reimagined for hybrid and shared workplaces, the new generation of M/Class supports larger displays while integrating expanded cable management, connectivity and charging capabilities. And a new pure white finish introduces a lighter aesthetic that complements contemporary workplace interiors.

A Space for Conversation

By combining product innovation with direct access to its global design leadership, Humanscale's Clerkenwell showroom will become a hub for conversation throughout the festival. Through the expert sessions with Silva and Consola, architects and designers will gain deeper insight into how ergonomics, movement and human wellbeing can be meaningfully integrated into the spaces they create.
