Who We AreEvery great story starts with a vision. For HighTower’s founders, that vision was to disrupt the bland, mass-produced contract furniture market with fresh and finely crafted products intuitive to the needs of a new, more connected and creative user. With the release of their first collection in 2003, Scott, Natalie and Rachel knew they were on to something special.
Today, HighTower’s modern collection of products - imagined by a global community of break-out designers - draws people in, awakens the senses, welcomes collaboration and inspires creativity. While a lot has changed, we’ve held onto that “something special” that helped us realize our goal more than 10 years ago: A fearless dedication to fresh products that put people’s needs first.
HighTower’s unique and flexible collection of functional and durable modern furnishings allow colleges and universities to create spaces that inspire, evolve and endure - helping you meet your strategic goals, whether that is attracting quality students, enhancing the university’s brand or cultivating socialization and collaboration across campus.
Just as the workspace has evolved to become more flexible and collaborative, so has the classroom. Today’s students are hands-on and want to be inspired and challenged. Their physical surroundings play a big role in their engagement in both learning and social settings. And thanks to technology, today’s connected student can learn anywhere - at any time.
