They may say that life begins at 40, but British office furniture brand Boss Design would likely disagree. Since its humble beginnings back in 1983, the company has grown into a respected and globally active one, all the while staying true to a philosophy centred around comfort, quality and people – in terms of both its customers and a 260-strong team. As it begins the next 40 years of its journey, it's reassuring to know that sustainability also remains a key element of Boss's ideology – crafting forward-looking, environmentally-conscious furniture that serves not only its users but the planet, too. Now that's something worth celebrating.
