What is the USM Haller ball-and-tube connector system?

The USM Haller system is built around a chrome-plated steel spherical connector that joins tubular steel elements at precise angles. Designed by Swiss architect Fritz Haller in the 1960s, the connector has remained mechanically unchanged, allowing new configurations to integrate seamlessly with pieces produced decades earlier.

Can USM Haller components be reconfigured over time?

Yes. One of the defining qualities of the USM Haller system is its modular expandability. Individual panels, drawers, and doors can be added, removed, or repositioned as spatial needs change, and all components remain compatible across generations of production.

What color options are available for the G118?

The G118 is available in seven standard surface colors, allowing it to be specified in dialogue with a wide range of architectural palettes. Custom color options may be available through special order for larger projects.

Is the USM Haller G118 suitable for residential use?

The G118 was designed with both professional and residential environments in mind. Its proportions and finish options translate well from office settings to living rooms, studies, and bedrooms where disciplined storage is a priority.

Who designed the USM Haller furniture system?

The system was developed through a collaboration between Swiss architect Fritz Haller and Paul Schärer, who led USM. Haller's background in modular architectural structures directly informed the geometric precision and scalability of the connector system.
