Herman Miller has started selling products in the two collections created for collaborative working, which were first unveiled at the NeoCon furniture fair in Chicago last year.

Fuseproject's Public Office Landscape collection has been designed to create various open-plan workspace configurations, that can be moved around as companies grow and change.

It features a seat module with the same height as the desks, which integrates into the office set up to allow colleagues to work at each other's desks if necessary.
