“Push the Boundaries”<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

With a modern sensibility for design, Silva focuses on producing balance in his designs by concentrating on function, visual appeal, and impeccable user experience. Silva shares, \u201cI hope to inspire the team to continue pushing the boundaries of what we think is possible as we consider the strategic vision of Humanscale\u2019s future products. My goal is to serve as a constant reminder that as designers and engineers we hold the ability to have a real impact on individual lives<\/em>.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to see Sergio step into this new role,<\/em>\u201d says David Wong, Vice President of Product Development Design & Engineering. \u201cHumanscale\u2019s industry-leading, high-performance ergonomic products are designed with functionality, simplicity and longevity at the forefront — a philosophy shaped by the legendary Niels Diffrient. I know that Sergio will lead the Humanscale Design Studio to continue this legacy of human-centered design and create workplace solutions that have a positive impact on the health of our customers and on the natural environment.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set the standard<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Silva plans to work closely with Humanscale\u2019s \nsustainability team to ensure that the company continues to set the \nstandard of what it means to design environmentally-conscious products. \nHumanscale aims for a Net Positive environmental impact in its design \nand manufacturing operations and has always championed the longevity of \nits products; a value that is close to Silva\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI never wanted to work for a company whose products would end up in a landfill in a few years. Even as a young design student, I knew I wanted to work on things that would last and have a genuine impact on the lives of the people who used them,<\/em>\u201d shares Silva. \u201cHumanscale, in many ways, is every designer\u2019s dream. Working for an organization that believes in building quality into its products, while also solving real problems with simplicity and sustainability in mind is very appealing.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of Humanscale, Silva has been involved in several \ndesign ventures since studying design at Pratt Institute, including a \ncreative consultant role at Still House, a trend-setting retail concept \nin NYC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
