Future ready since 1965 – USM explores its place within the office landscape both past, present and future. USM’s showroom will feature an installation that looks back to the office of the 60’s, complete with telephones, typewriters, ash trays and whisky glasses. The ‘Mad Men-esque’ set highlights how much the office has changed in the last 50 years, with just one enduring presence: that of USM. Framing the installation will be images of USM’s original office in the 1960’s, highlighting how forward-thinking USM Haller’s design was.
