Frequently Asked Questions

What is the USM Haller modular system made of?

The USM Haller system is built from chromium-plated steel tubes joined by zinc die-cast ball connectors, with panels typically finished in powder-coated steel. This combination of materials gives the system its characteristic industrial precision and long service life.

Can USM Haller furniture be reconfigured or expanded later?

Yes. One of the core principles behind Fritz Haller's design is that every USM Haller piece is part of a compatible, open-ended system. Components purchased years apart can be integrated, making reconfiguration or expansion straightforward throughout the life of the furniture.

Who designed the USM Haller system?

The system was conceived by Swiss architect Fritz Haller in collaboration with USM company director Paul Schärer in the 1960s, originally as a flexible structure for USM's own factory offices. It entered the commercial market in 1969 and has remained in continuous production since.

How many color options are available for the USM Haller Nightstand P1?

The Nightstand P1 is available in seven standard surface colors, ranging from neutral tones to more saturated options. Because the piece is made to order, color selection is confirmed at the time of purchase.

Is the USM Haller Nightstand P1 suitable for use outside the bedroom?

The Nightstand P1 works equally well as a side table in a living room or as a compact storage unit in a home office. Its proportions and lockable doors make it adaptable to any setting where controlled, concealed storage is needed at a lower height.
