LIBERTY BROCHURE

With a career spanning more than 50 years, industrial designer Niels Diffrient revolutionized the world of design by focusing on the human experience. Diffrient was known for creating products that clearly embodied his beliefs of solving functional problems as simply and elegantly as possible, resulting in honest, timeless forms.

His partnership with Humanscale began in 1998, with the development of the Freedom chair. Setting a new standard for ergonomic task chairs, Freedom changed the way people sit. Always true to his core values on design, Diffrient said in a New York Times article, “Why would you design something if it didn't improve the human condition?” Diffrient believed that chairs should adjust to the user, not the other way around—and this was evident in all of his designs including the Liberty, Diffrient World and his latest chair, Diffrient Smart. Founder and CEO of Humanscale Bob King said, “Niels believed in the importance of function and knew that great design must be driven by it. This is why his products often transcend any specific time or place.”
