Since 1996, Haworth has been shaping workplaces in Singapore. Its showroom's double-height lounge, furnished with Cabana Lounge sofas, Lud'o lounge chairs and planting, brings clients, designers and teams together to explore how work is changing.
A small meeting room in Haworth's Singapore showroom, kept deliberately calm for conversations that need everyone's attention. Daylight, a broad leafed plant and light Maari task chairs around Epure table make an hour of decision making feel less like an obligation.
Arrival at Haworth's Singapore showroom is a welcome, not a wait. A long coral Riverbend sofa faces lit shelving and a wall of textile swatches, with touchdown perches alongside for anyone who wants to answer one message before the meeting starts.
Layers of glass and open shelving let one setting borrow light and greenery from the next in Haworth's Singapore showroom, so a Lud'o lounge chair tucked behind the planting still belongs to the room while giving someone a moment out of the traffic.
A hybrid meeting room in the Haworth showroom in Singapore, built on the idea that remote colleagues deserve a seat too. Warm dark walls settle the sound and the mood, and a Brunner Team - whiteboard on castors - keeps the thinking visible to everyone on the call.
Training takes stamina, so this glass walled room in Haworth's Singapore showroom gives a group daylight, a city view and space to move around the Epure tables. Maari chairs roll into new groupings the moment a session turns from listening into working.
An Epure worksation anchors the social heart of Haworth's Singapore showroom, where people land between meetings with a laptop or a coffee. Pablo Clamp lamps, planting and pods a few steps away mean nobody has to choose between company and quiet.
Choice is the point in Haworth's Singapore showroom: a green Openest Feather sofa and Popy Lounge chairs on a Mangas rug for loose conversation, HAT desks a few steps behind for heads down work, and a wall of textile colour for anyone specifying a scheme.
One open floor in Haworth's Singapore showroom runs from Poppy Lounge chairs and a Mangas rug at one end to Intuity desks and Fern chairs at the other, with an acoustic pod between them. People move along that spectrum as the day asks for company, focus or a private call.
Sometimes a presentation is best watched alone. A Lud'o lounge chair in Haworth's Singapore showroom sits within arm's reach of a wide screen and the street outside, so one person can follow a hybrid session in comfort instead of booking a whole room.
Intuity bench with Active Components along the glass in Haworth's Singapore showroom look straight out over the port, giving concentrated work something better than a wall to face. Daylight, planted shelving and generous spacing keep a full row feeling open rather than packed.
Everyone runs on a different rhythm, so the HAT workstations in Haworth's Singapore showroom rise and fall and the Fern chairs adjust to suit the person using them. A planted shelf divides the row without closing it, and standing to work stays an ordinary choice, not a statement.
An afternoon in the Haworth showroom in Singapore can be spent three ways at once: a quiet Lud'o lounge chair by the window with a tablet, a BuzziNest booth for a call, and a glass walled room where a team is mid discussion, all of it within a few steps.
The host desk in Haworth's Singapore showroom stands out in the open on Bandas Space runners, near the cafe counter and the Intuity Park Bench high tables where people are already talking. Greeting a visitor here feels like welcoming them into a working day rather than parking them in a lobby.
The coffee counter in the Haworth showroom in Singapore is a proper third place, right down to the menu board and two Newood chairs at a Jive Café table. Ten minutes here between meetings does more for a team's thinking than another hour in a room.
