Catalyst is a furniture-based system that equips open-plan and private-office vistas with equal ease. The same storage, work and privacy components comprise every Catalyst configuration, providing visual and functional continuity to the office landscape. Named for the role played by mission-critical teams in law firms, financial-services companies and other professional organizations, Catalyst creates constructive settings for those who provoke action and keep workflows moving. The lines are minimal: the aesthetic is horizontal, lean and refined, yet the resulting environments are warm, personal and productive. Catalyst preserves the comfort and material standards of executive offices for those managers joining open-plan or collaborative settings. A new vocabulary of furniture for the professions, Catalyst places a premium on the individual and the contributions they make to the enterprise.
