While sit-stand tables are generally only available for single workstations, Tyde extends this concept to offer the combined benefits of standing and sitting work postures to double workstations and conference tables.

Tyde incorporates special features to address the acoustic challenges of today's open plan offices: the electric height adjustment motor is especially quiet and concealed under the table inside a sound-absorbing cover. In addition, the newly developed screens made of polyester fleece work effectively with the cover to dampen ambient noise.

Tyde caters to individual needs: desks in various sizes can be outfitted to accommodate the required functions. Users can choose from three height adjustment options: an electric motor for sit-stand tables, and a hand crank or manual locking mechanism for standard tables. Additional elements such as technical beams, various screens, CPU holders and other accessories allow for further individualisation.

About Designer
Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec
Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, born 1971 and 1976, respectively, in Quimper, France, studied at the École Nationale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris and at the École des Beaux-Arts in Cergy-Pontoise. Ronan began independent design work immediately after completing his studies, while his brother, who was still in school, assisted him. Since 1999 both brothers have worked together as joint partners in their own Paris-based design studio. Their work ranges from small utilitarian objects to architectural projects. In addition to the design of domestic and office furniture, vases, porcelain dishware, jewellery and diverse home accessories, a primary focus of their work is the design and organisation of interior space. One of their most unconventional designs, Algue (2004), was created in this context. The collaboration between the Bouroullec brothers and Vitra began with the office furniture system Joyn, which was developed between 2000 and 2002 and continues to be expanded and refined. Along with Jasper Morrison, Hella Jongerius and Antonio Citterio, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec have made major contributions to the steadily growing Vitra Home Collection.
