Embracing Human-Centric Design: A Path to Enhanced Usability and Experience

March 26, 2024

Human-centric design is an approach to problem-solving that places the people we're designing for at the heart of the process.

At Krost, we prioritise user needs and behaviours when designing new products. This focus on the user creates spaces that enhance comfort, productivity, and emotional well-being.

We design furniture with adaptable layouts and features that accommodate various abilities and lifestyles. This ensures accessibility and inclusivity for all occupants.

From flexible workstations that seamlessly transform into meeting tables to ergonomic seating options that accommodate diverse activities, we provide value-driven solutions tailored to our clients' evolving needs.

Our goal is to keep users' wants, pain points, and preferences at the forefront of every phase of the process.

Human-centric design isn't just a feel-good philosophy, it's an effective business strategy. By creating spaces that empower people, businesses can foster a more productive and engaged workforce.

Ultimately, human-centric design is about more than just creating spaces; it's about empowering individuals. Recognising that when people feel valued and supported, they thrive. 

Explore how we showcase human-centric design below and view our product range here.

Balancing Contemporary Design & Function with Remi

September 26, 2022

Functionally minded while still aware of its cultural and visual semiotics, the Remi table and credenza collection blends seamlessly into any space it occupies. Remi’s design is brought to life through its circular base wrapped with half round Steccawood panelling.

The Remi collection features meeting, café, counter and coffee tables and credenza. With the wealth of configurations available, Remi facilitates a variety of settings that focus on connection, collaboration and comfort by the curation of furniture, finishes and aesthetic.

The Remi credenza redefines storage. Thoughtfully balanced with a smooth radius shape front design and strong lines through half round Steccawood panelling, Remi’s grandeur nature complements reception areas, meeting rooms and executive offices.

Leveraging decades of experience in design and manufacturing capabilities, Remi’s construction is a thoughtful balance of elements that creates a multifaceted visual feature for all commercial environments.
