3 Form follows function. That has been the principle of USM Modular Furniture since its inception over 40 years ago. In 1960 Paul Schaerer (Graduate in Engineering and grandson of USM founder Ulrich Schaerer) met the Swiss Architect Fritz Haller for the construction project of the new USM factory buildings and office pavilion. Paul Schaerer discovered in the young architect an ability to ful fill his requirements for a flexible factory building with the vision of a unique, steel modular cons truction system. In collaboration with Fritz Haller, the new USM factory buildings and office pa vilion were planned and realized in Muen - singen, Switzerland. Then in 1963 Paul Schaerer and Fritz Haller began creating a furniture system for the new USM office pavilion. The result was a flexible product line that would adapt to the growing business and spatial demands of the company. Today, USM Haller can be found in offices and homes around the world and has been acquired for the permanent design collec - tion of The Museum of Modern Art in New York. Fritz Haller later be came a Professor of Architec - tu re at a university in Germany, and has been honored many times and awarded with an honorary doctorate degree. Over the years, USM has extended its product lines to include; USM Kitos and USM Display all based on the original concept of an open system and the ability to respond to changing requirements. With nearly infinite possibilities for modification, USM furniture can meet the needs of the individual user for now and years to come. USM s state-of-the-art production technologies guarantee the strength and durability of each component. To this day, final assembly is always completed by hand, ensuring exceptional attention to detail and quality. Longevity plays a central role in the entire manufacturing pro - cesses proven by the timeless character and reverse com - patibility of the USM Modular Furniture system. Today, with 380 employees and sales partners in over 30 countr ie s, USM continues to grow. The Swiss-based, 4 th generation family owned company has achieved a truly global presence. Thanks to high-quality materials, timeless design and modular construc tion, USM Modular Fur niture is revered as a modern design classic. More information at chapter Company

18 USM Haller System The basic construction element of USM Modular Furniture Haller is a chrome-plated brass ball joint. Chromed steel tubes connect to the ball to form a stable framework in which the powder-coated metal panels (available in 11 colors) and internal organiza tional elements are mounted. Each unit is customized from the standard components to satisfy the individual user s requirements. The system is flexible and adap - table to conform to new and chan ging needs in the home or office environment. Minimalist design with maximum function has made USM Haller a true modern classic, still timeless more than 40 years after it was first introduced. While its basic principles and aesthetics have not changed, accessories are updated continuously to meet current needs and technological advancements, always with the same goal: form and function based on high quality materials and construction precision. The USM Inos (internal organi - zational system) can be used in combination with all USM product lines to further customize the compartments for optimal efficiency

Pages 6/7 USM Haller Variations in height, width and depth. Page 9 USM Haller A sideboard in ruby red with glass doors perfectly supplements the USM Haller table with its transparent glass tabletop. Pages 10/11 USM Haller Up-to-date accessories transform the furniture into a TV or HiFi unit. It can be open for DVD and CD storage or arranged as discreet, closed compartments.
