Design Details
The USM Haller System
The USM Haller modular system was born from a collaboration between Swiss architect Fritz Haller and USM founder Paul Schärer. Tasked with designing a new factory building for USM in Münsingen, Switzerland, they developed a flexible construction system based on a modular grid of steel tubes and patented ball connectors. The system proved so successful that it was adapted for furniture – and the USM Haller collection was born in 1963.
Rare Olive Green Finish
The Olive Green finish is one of USM’s most highly sought-after and rare colors. This warm, earthy green offers a sophisticated alternative to standard neutrals, adding depth and character to any interior. Its bold yet versatile hue complements both mid-century modern and contemporary spaces.
