Company overview
Coalesse launched in June 2008 at the NeoCon World's Trade Fair in Chicago. It is a combination of Steelcase's Brayton, Metro, and Vecta brands, but also includes pieces made by Carl Hansen & Son, Walter Knoll AG & Co., Viccarbe, and PP Mobler. Their original brand focus was on designing office and home furniture that appeals to what the company called “live/work lifestyles, but later shifted their focus away from creating home-oriented pieces toward creating more work-oriented pieces.”

In 2012, it was announced that Coalesse was planning to expand their business operations into Europe.
