Remote working is becoming more commonplace — a gift from COVID if you will. USA Today reports that more than one in five Americans will work remotely by 2025. Enter Humanscale at HOUSEWORKS.
Founded in 1983, Humanscale is the leading designer and manufacturer of ergonomic products that improve the health and comfort of work life. Their design and quality is unrivaled. Humanscale prides themselves on making in-house products that are built to last. Products that perform as well after a decade as they do on day one. And trust us— their pieces go through rigorous testing, well above and beyond the industry standard.
While they have received many accolades for their quality, innovative designs, they’re perhaps more admirable for being a planet positive company. Humanscale tries to divert waste from landfills at every step of the process. They utilize solar panels for power and harvest rain water to use year-round. Over 70% of their products are certified as Climate Positive. Humanscale uses upcycled plastics from our oceans to make usable products. Their goal is to achieve more with less, every day.

STANDING OVATION
If you’re working remote, the option to sit or stand is vital during those long days. If you’re looking for a sit/stand desk, HOUSEWORKS has some great offerings. If you already have a desk, there are some great attachments that allow you to sit or stand with any desk.
GET LIT
Their lighting combines advanced technology, modern design and thoughtful engineering to bring you the ideal light no matter your task. Their Nova lights produce a uniform footprint of glare-free neutral light that you can easily adjust with one hand. The elementDISC light has seven levels of brightness with a pinch of the light head, and features an occupancy sensor that turns the unit on or off when someone enters or leaves an area.
BEST SEAT IN THE HOUSE
The innovations of the Liberty task chair replaced the locks, knobs and levers of your old standard task chair, with your body weight and and the laws of physics, allowing you to move effortlessly from one position to another. The form-sensing mesh takes on the exact shape of the individual’s back, giving immense support for those tough days! This chair was designed by Niels Diffrient— the father of ergonomics. He revolutionized the task chair with The Liberty. This is just one of many great chairs we carry at HOUSEOWORKS. Are you a big Gamer? You have to check out Humanscale’s gaming chair!
ROCK OUT
Humanscale really has thought of all the things. Their Foot rockers are functional and stylish, and add instant relief from prolonged sitting by encouraging a gentle rocking of the feet, which promotes circulation and raising the feet to relieve pressure on the lower back.
