Haworth is a global leader in workplace furniture, known for its research-driven approach to ergonomics and seating design. The collaboration with EcoLattice emerged from a shared focus on improving long-duration comfort, initiating a dialogue around how advanced material systems could integrate within performance-oriented seating environments.
From Material Exploration to Dynamic Seating Performance
Within this collaboration, EcoLattice was explored as a material system capable of redefining how seating responds to the body. Unlike conventional foams that compress uniformly, lattice structures enable zoned cushioning, adapting to pressure variations across different contact points. This allowed the investigation to move beyond static comfort toward dynamic support, where the surface responds to posture, movement, and time. Positioned within Haworth’s ecosystem, the collaboration highlighted a broader shift in design thinking where materials are no longer passive layers but active components shaping ergonomic performance and user experience.
