Baltimore - OFS Brands, a leading supplier of contract furniture, is revealing new products that connect people and space at NeoCon East 2013. Held at the Baltimore Convention Center October 16-17, NeoCon East is the premier design expo and conference for commercial interiors on the East Coast.
“OFS Brands’ new product introductions explore how design connects us to the spaces where we work, learn, heal, play and live,” said Doug Shapiro, director of A&D for OFS. “Great design starts with understanding context, and great furniture must not only relate to the space around it but address a deeper understanding of human nature and the future of communication. We no longer group our products together by brand, but rather how people use, or connect to a space.”

OFS Brands is comprised of four distinct brands – OFS, First Office, Loewenstein and Carolina – that provide furniture to a wide range of contract interior environments. OFS and First Office produce a wide range of furniture and accessories for the office environment, from technology-savvy mixed-use collections to casegoods to modern lounge pieces. Loewenstein primarily caters to lifestyle interiors, while Carolina is best known as a provider in the healthcare market.

“Here at OFS Brands, we take an integrated approach to product design, technology, distribution and service so that we can be a reliable single source solution for all of our distribution channels,” said Phil Mehringer, executive director of marketing for OFS Brands.

Focal Point by OFS: The Focal Point line, available in a wide range of individual and small group configurations, provides users with privacy and access to power and data in open spaces. Focal Point’s angled high back and asymmetrical seat positioning allows for lounging posture while the size and placement of the side panels create a privacy alcove. A 6” utility arm can accessed for tablets. The positioning of the foot and the base creates Focal Point’s gravity-defying profile, which minimizes the visual mass of the piece. 

Eleven Work Space by OFS: Architecture Uninterrupted. Swiss architect and designer Daniel Korb developed Eleven around a fundamental concept: "Furniture is Architecture on a Different Scale". This inspires a seamless blend of furniture functionality, connectivity, storage, and media integration that harmonizes with interior architecture. Informed by the international style and an architect's attention to detail, Eleven presents an adaptable, sustainable aesthetic that scales from private to collaborative and open spaces.

Jux by OFS: Jux blurs the lines between interior architecture and furniture. Height-adjustability and integration of standing height surfaces allows workers to move fluidly between sitting and standing work positions Access points for both individual and group refuge can be integrated or freestanding. Jux features a central storage spine that allows for a variety of planning methods with a range of densities.

Slate by OFS: Slate creates efficient collaboration and sharing venues with boardroom amenities in the midst of open areas. Concise and intuitive, Slate provides media support, space division, collaboration tools, power, and storage in a seamless interface that helps people work together more effectively. The unit features handy interior storage with a flip-up door on top, a wastebasket below, and a refreshment station in between. Technology access is built into the work surface, and the wall supports a monitor for digital sharing and interaction.

The Edge by First Office: Designed by Primo Orpilla and Verda Alexander, founders and co-principals of studio o+a in San Francisco, the edge promotes the modern workstyle by creating a new way for people to move out of a workstation, collaborate and simply hang out. Based on a ‘found objects’ principle, the variety of materials, forms and sizes enables the edge to address a broad range of work typologies: from heads down focused work with a laptop or tablet, to small lounge discussions, to dedicated meeting spaces under the overhead canopy. Introduced in a variety of materials, the edge is intentionally built on unique modules. When pushed together, these modules create a patchwork landscape across the workspace. The use of simple materials such as plywood and felt, and the concept of stacked crates and urban textures lend to its authentic approach to creating a space that is more flexible than walls or ceilings.

Collier by Loewenstein: Modern, sophisticated and flexible, Collier brings contemporary forms to molded polyurethane and steel to create an instant classic. Its tactile shell forms a “collar” effect around the arms and back that embraces those who are seated. A variety of base options inspire adaptability and connections to any space. 

OFS Brands, Inc. is a family owned corporation, headquartered in Huntingburg, Indiana, and is committed to providing socially responsible furniture and logistic solutions through better design, excellent performance, and innovative products and services.

The Edge Featured in New York Times Article about Studio O+A's Bureau Pop-Up Shop.

The answer is Bureau, a 375-square-foot space at 445 Natoma Street, which O+A furnished on a lark to resemble a living room where work gets done. What makes Bureau truly eccentric is that it is also a store. Most everything there, including O+A’s modular Edge desk ($6,465, shown) and sticker sheets printed with irreverent remarks ($2), is for sale, even though the shop does not keep regular hours. “You can knock and we’ll let you in,” said Verda Alexander, who founded the firm with Primo Orpilla.

“Of course, it’s going to be completely changed,” Ms. Alexander said. She wasn’t ready to divulge the next theme, but said, “Our designers get a kick out of pulling out their Square Readers and swiping the credit cards.” Information: (415) 908-1880 or o-plus-a.com. 

Rule of Three gets its name from its three different arm designs “and the ancient belief that whatever energy an object puts out, it is returned threefold.” Airy and playful, Rule of Three by Carolina embodies the theory that good style and good health are interlinked. This suite of lounge chairs, sofas, and benches will turn healthcare spaces into elegant retreats

Unveiled at NeoCon 2013, Rule of Three features a visually weightless frame in a mod design with the clean lines of mid-century furniture. The lounge pieces should inspire well-being: “Rule of Three exudes a positive radiance sure to bring good fortune to any interior space,” says Carolina. The tubular legs bring a touch of lightness to the upholstered furniture, and the open space beneath the pieces adds to this effect.
