Though work processes can be planned down to the smallest detail, the people in a company have an asset that make them unique: The capacity to think, make decisions, and act intuitively. This capacity needs a place where it can unfold. Spontaneous meetings flourish in The Modern Lounge, where the combination of seating and creative partitions lets you fashion an island within the room where you can talk undisturbed. Add a built-in display and you can start collaborating. Try it out. Take a seat. And broaden your horizons. 6 | VS America, Inc.

Dans son en- fance, il est en contact avec de nombreuses réalisations romanes de la région, notamment la cathédrale de Trier ou encore l’abbaye Maria Laach situé à Glees, dont la géométrie strict trouve souvent une résonance dans les projets de Ungers. Puis, de sa petite ville natale de Rhé- nanie-Palatinat, il emménage à Karlsruhe dans le but d’y faire ses études à la Technische Hochschule (TU). Porté par « un intérêt émotionnel pour la modernité »1, Ungers décide rapidement de se plonger dans un cursus d’ar- chitecture. Dès 1950, à l’âge de 24 ans, il obtient son di- plôme sous la direction de Egon Eiermann et l’année qui suit, ouvre son bureau à Cologne.
