– Offecct's 2018 news collection is summarized under the motto: Furniture with a mission, that is, every piece of furniture has a clear task that helps people navigate the increasingly thorny landscape that separates away from home, public from private, work from leisure, explains Offecct's Design Manager Anders Englund. Besides being comfortable to sit in, Jacket has a highly pronounced mission.

Offecct News 2018 - Surf movable table by Maximilian Schmahl

​Surf – a new mobile table for Offecct by Maximilian Schmahl.

Surf is moved around easily, yet it is no “furniture” according to the designer, rather “a tool for achieving maximum flexibility in activity-based venues.” Whether there is a computer or a couple of cups of coffee sitting on top of it. The light table blends well into Offecct's Life-circle philosophy.

Good design inspire and encourage creativity. This is sometimes felt rather than seen, like through a comfortable position in a furniture, or in a perfect acoustic environment.

Offecct started with a vision to create the meeting places of the future, where beauty and innovation go hand in hand with functionality. While our origin is Swedish, the philosophy has always been borderless and characterised by an international perspective on Scandinavian design. This is why we collaborate with the world’s most creative architects and designers. Together we affect spaces. We explore ideas that are innovative and push concepts of work – balancing the radical and the functional.
Spaces in which you work and socialise flow between the analog and digital realms. This experience should be as easy and frictionless as possible. We develop our collection with this in mind. And to make sure that our clients get the assistance they need to complete their vision, we are committed to find solutions. A free service is activated once you make a purchase from us. It means that we are there for you to help develop and execute proposals based on our extensive collection, in a knowledgeable and professional way.
