DESIGN STORY

Today, screens and monitors come in an ever-increasing range of shapes and sizes…
Curved screens,
Square Screens,
Flat screens,
Wide screens,
Ultra-wide screens,
Portrait Screens,
Landscape Screens,
Portrait and landscape,
Dual Screens,
Triple Screens,
Large Screens….
People work better with the right size, format and number of screens, but the sheer variety throws up a huge, ergonomic challenge.

We already had the engineering designs behind the original Flo arm to work with, so we had a great starting point.
And we were all set to get going when…
The pandemic hit.
It wasn’t easy, but we just had to carry on as best we could. We adapted and we got creative with how our team worked.
We definitely kept our couriers busy, sending prototypes from one team member to the next, exchanging ideas and then boxing it up and sending it on.

We started with our existing D-ring mechanism and took it to the next level so it could accommodate even bigger monitors and curved screens. All while keeping the existing benefits of fingertip adjustability and easy balance-to-tilt, whether you’ve got one, two or three
screens in your set-up.
> 3. How could we make sure that any type of monitor set-up can be simply and perfectly aligned?
For Dual and triple monitor setups, we solved this by creating a bar on which up to three monitors can sit, with a single knob to effortlessly adjust the mounting bar and therefore all screens at once, keeping them all seamlessly aligned.
