Align is the result of a simple premise: create a single platform of pan-

els, storage, and desking that provides absolute harmony between

each component and endless freedom of expression for designers

and facility managers. From reception areas through open plan, and

management workstations all the way into the private office, Align

gives you a single, coherent structure that makes planning easy and

designing an inspiration.

Align. Where beauty and function converge.

The private office to open plan solution.

Woodgrain that lines up perfectly from each tile to the next.

A transaction top that floats above the desk. Intriguing combi-

nations of texture and color. With Align, every choice you make

reflects the quality of choices we’ve made.

Align makes walking into the office a “Wow” moment.



P U T A N E W F A C E O N P R I V A C Y

Private offices take on purposeful elegance, with floor-to-ceiling

panels that accommodate doors and create walls that bring fabric,

veneer, or simply lots of light into your space. With Align, your

system creates a sanctuary.

Tiles that extend all the way

to the floor show off good taste

along with good tailoring.

Panels and storage fronts can be

dressed up with any custom 1/8"

material or our own LandscapeTM

surfaces.

Clean lines, open areas, elegant color choices, and an expanse of

surface for sharing ideas. Align lets you create a work environment

where everyone can comfortably engage in both blue-sky thinking

and down-to-earth productivity.

Overhead storage that looks like cabinetry, panels of varying finishes

and heights, and plenty of places to plug in both power and data–as

frequently as every eight vertical inches on the frame–to accommo-

date today’s high-tech workforce.

Panels that step down at 8"

increments give office walls a

softer, more subtle silhouette.

Align offers so many storage

options, including open shelves

for displaying personal items or

keeping critical projects close

at hand.

Make beautiful offices a part of the recruitment and retention pack-

age with an energetic pop of color, distinctive touches of wood,

expanses of worksurface, and personalized storage at every turn.

Storage for all the kinds of work you have to do. Worksurfaces

shaped for tasking and meeting. Tools that improve paper man-

agement and power access. Align makes it easier for everyone to

focus on achieving shared goals.

From the panel to the kickplate,

the lateral file to the desktop,

each component connects

seamlessly with every other.

When a touch of veneer is more

than enough, simply dress up

forward-facing surfaces.

Align allows aesthetic unity and individual expression to happen simultaneously.

From reception to the executive suite, you can mix and match materials, define

functional areas with colors and finishes, create a statement or an accent with

wood, or lighten the mood with lower panels and open desking.

There are so many things to say, and so many ways to say them, with Align.

With Align, the same components of panels, storage, and

desking can take on dramatically different personalities,

providing you with endless versatility to express whatever

you want to say about your brand, your employees, your

offices, or the kind of work that needs to be done.

thing from files to pencils, binders

to your PDA.

Storage gives you yet another

opportunity for a design state-

ment with Landscape surfaces,

painted metal, or veneer.

Who says an office needs walls? Unobstructed space and furniture

that lets light, air, and people circulate more easily keeps the feeling

fresh. And keeps employees more content, productive, and satisfied

with their working environment.

Open areas and freestanding desks

allow people to come together and

apart, fluidly following the demands

of the day.

so anyone can pull up a chair.
