Malnight's Luminence Meets The Needs Of The Home Office

Furniture World Magazine

Luminence(tm), a new line of desks, credenzas and related office furniture from The Malnight Company, has been created to fit the particular needs of the home office, combining commercial ruggedness with residential styling at highly affordable price points. Luminence is at home in either contemporary or traditional settings, offering desks, credenzas, tables, pedestals, storage units, and auxiliary shelving. All feature hardwood construction and either wood veneer or laminate finishes. Although classified as ready- to- assemble, all Luminence products are actually shipped either partially or fully assembled. They can be put together in minutes with a screwdriver and an allen wrench (provided). Desks, tables, and credenzas involve assembly of no more than eight fasteners. There is no need for the involvement of professional installers. Proving that well-built and good-looking furniture need not cost big bucks, Luminence sells for little more than off-the-floor superstore lines, yet significantly outperforms such products in durability as well as styling. All Luminence products meet or exceed ANSI/BIFMA office furniture commercial performance standards. That may be the reason Luminence is proudly offered in a rapidly growing number of residential as well as contract and middle market furniture outlets, and by direct mail catalog dealers. As a further benefit to those furnishing home offices, Luminence products are available for prompt delivery directly to a user's door. Malnight's underlying "loose fit" design and space planning philosophy makes Luminence easy to reconfigure, and to add compatible units as interior work environment needs change. Moreover, Luminence pricing fits budgets typically established by companies deploying staff to work from home, as well as budgets set by entrepreneurs who need products compatible with the aesthetics of small or home office environments and who are looking for well-designed and well-constructed products at a highly affordable price. For example, a typical grouping of a 30" x 60" cherry veneer desk with a single pedestal and a double shelf open credenza retails for under $1,000, far less than a comparable traditional contract grade product grouping.
