INTRODUCTION Across industries, organizations are transitioning to more adaptable furniture and more integrated layouts in order to accommodate the diversity of work modes in the workplace. XBench presents a new approach to workplace design that supports the freedom and mobility people seek in today s office, a contemporary desking system that works for virtually any person, any task in any environment. Based on a core platform frame and concise set of reconfigurable components, XBench allows you to personalize the office and make it your own. 01
DESIGN CHOICES For design freedom, XBench offers a rich array of materials, colors, and finishes to reflect an organization s culture, brand, and personality from a contemporary to a more traditional reserved look. In benching configurations, unique XBench end panels made of architectural material define boundaries and allow users enhanced privacy to facilitate personal work. Many designer colors and patterns are available that will help to create a contemporary, functional and stand-out working environment. 02 03
FLEXIBILITY Traditional, one-size-fits-all benching compromises employees effectiveness, forcing them to adapt to the furniture instead of the furniture adapting to them and their needs. XBench is designed to seamlessly adapt to diverse individuals, teams and groups, supporting the varying levels of mobility and collaboration found in organizations today. Adaptable and scalable, the innovative core structure can easily be installed, built upon, extended or fully reconfigured to adapt to new demands, changing demographics, advances in technology and evolving work patterns. To permit maximum flexibility and creative planning, XBench offers the option of 120-degree workstation clusters. Clusters connect at the end of XBenches via a single center leg, freeing up space beneath the worksurface to allow for a generous amount of leg room. 04 05
INTERGRATED STORAGE Individuals on the same team collaborate often, yet also need their own spaces and storage. XBench offers a variety of integrated storage up-mounted shelves for light loads, traditional under- desk storage solutions like mobile pedestals and low lateral files, as well as end-mount storage which can attach above or below the worksurface with open or sliding door cabinets. Metal storage components have a light, clean look and accept a range of attractive finishes. Laminate doors bring an upscale look to a metal cabinet case. Upholstered sitting cushions on low storage units invite co-workers for informal impromptu meetings. 06 07
COLORS & FINISHES Accent colors energize a space. Vivid colors applied to XBench set-ups identify and distinguish work areas and enliven the office landscape. XBench offers a mix of materials and a great variety of colors and finishes for metal frames, storage elements, fabric and glass screen dividers that contribute to aesthetics, functionality and sustainability goals. 08 09
PRIVACY WHEN NEEDED XBench escapes the look of a traditional bench. The sturdy frame creates a unique benching structure comprised of end-mounted overlay screens, under-desk low storage and extended returns that expand the workspace. Casual screens define boundaries and create corridor privacy. Metal storage units can be ordered with laminate finished fronts featuring designer handles and help to create a warmer personal working environment. 10 11
TEAM WORK Project teams require spaces that support intense collaboration for extended periods of time. XBench brings teams together and at the same time can offer elements to create a desired level of privacy like low screens and up-mounted cabinets that can serve the purpose of a semi-divider. This way XBench helps team members to stay organized, while also creating a community setting where information can be shared, questions answered, and problems resolved quickly. 12 13
CONNECTIVITY & EFFICIENCY XBench, with a continuous top, offers a clean surface and quick access to power & data, which is ideal for conference and meeting rooms. Power & data is delivered via an integrated central rail and cable tray underneath the worksurface providing a clean solution and efficient power and cable management. From basic to the most demanding requirements of today s office, XBench offers a variety of power and data solutions. 14 15
CREATIVITY & INNOVATION XBench is a simple solution to the complex challenge of supporting the ever-evolving needs of people and workstyles within a modern workplace. Ideal for maintaining a crucial balance of collaboration and individual work in smaller footprints, XBench provides options to meet the unique needs of each person and team. With XBench, one can design dynamic environments that encourage performance, while helping to support a culture that is open to embracing new ideas. 16 17
