A favourite with lovers of mid-century design, USM modular furniture is recognised throughout the world as a design classic. Available in signature 14 colours with the last permanent colour being introduced in 1995. For Autumn 2023 USM introduces olive green as a special colour, the sophisticated hue works beautifully in any home environment adding an elegant accent.
Few colours are as versatile as olive green. With its perfect balance between warm and cool tones, this earthy colour blends seamlessly into any design style and harmonises with almost any other colour. Olive green works well with different lighting conditions. In sunlight, it looks cosy and inviting, and under cooler light, it retains a serene elegance. The adaptability of olive green makes it a popular interior design choice, as the colour can be playfully used for different moods and in a wide variety of spatial contexts.
The unique beauty of olive green feels simultaneously new and old. It is an incredibly sophisticated and timeless shade, possessing an original and nostalgic charm whilst also a lively and contemporary look.
Olive green is available in four USM furniture configurations a sideboard, high credenza, low credenza and drinks trolley perfect for the festive season.
Ensuring a glamorous end to the year USM is giving all customers who buy a piece of furniture in olive green a set of classic martini glasses from the luxury crystal and glass manufacturer Riedel – sorry olives not included!!
The special colour will be available from November 2023 via www.usm.com or through authorized USM retail partners Aram, Chaplins, Nest and O’Hagan
About USM
Launched on to the market in 1965 and designed in conjunction with renowned Swiss architect Fritz Haller the USM Haller system has become a watchword for timeless design all over the world. In 1988 it was decided in Germany for the first time ever that the USM Haller furniture system is a work of applied art and should be protected by copyright. Its acceptance into the Design Collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York (USA) at the end of 2001 was a high distinction and confirmed the artistic character of the product. The design classic is used in offices and public buildings as well as increasingly in the style conscious home.
