OM Offers Variety of Furniture Solutions

OM Seating, based in Ontario, Calif., recently announced a variety of educational seating solutions via a press release. The three distinct styles are adaptable and flexible to meet the needs of a variety of environments. According to the news release, the seating solutions are affordable, lightweight, and ready to ship upon order.

The OM5 Active is best for collaborative environments and enables “user-initiated motion by virtue of a self-weighing, fully articulated chair top,” the news release reports. It can serve as a light task chair, a sled-based mid-density stacker, and a four-legged side chair that comes with multiple options.

The Ginny Multi-Tasker offers a classic design that best fits with collaboration zones, offices, and conference rooms. The multi-functionality and swiveling seat fit with the organization’s wider line of visitor and bariatric chairs, according to the press release.

Finally, the Wersky Collection offers three models—the Rocker, Tasker, and Visitor—that offer both functional and moveable solutions for collaboration, creativity, and contemplation.

  • Rethinking K-12 Schools as a Continuous Learning Experience

    Most students move through three or more separate facilities during their K-12 journey, yet the built environments they encounter at each stage have traditionally been designed in isolation, with little continuity in spatial language, learning philosophy, or physical resources. Each new school is a reset with different layouts, learning models, expectations, and ways of moving through a building. The next generation of school design is making the case that the first day of kindergarten and the last day of high school can and should feel connected through common support systems and infrastructure in the physical environment.
