TRUE TO
CHARACTER.
When selecting the right materials for today’s
environments, Kimball Office is in an ideal position
to help you make remarkable choices.
With an eye toward providing greater
design latitude than ever, we present our
Vision Collection of new wood finishes,
along with matching laminates.
The aim, in fact, of our ongoing and
comprehensive surface material refresh
is to span and integrate the entire
Kimball Office product portfolio. From
desks and storage, to seating, panels, and
worksurfaces, we can help you achieve a
coordinated, flowing look—whether that
look is timeless, transitional, or pushing a
new trend. For us, it’s a matter of keeping
it simple, making it beautiful, and staying
true to our nature.
Presence. Charm. Warmth. Energy.
Sustainability. Intrigue. Wood and
laminate finishes from Kimball Office
can deliver it all with genuine integrity.
And unexpected effects.

In a marketplace where a myriad of
wood finishes exist, what distinguishes
the exceptional from the everyday?
By looking to the Vision Collection from Kimball Office,
you’ll see a range of options that embodies wood’s truly
genuine traits—and even brings them to the surface.
Because we possess an artisan’s passion, we take a keener
interest than most in communicating the finer details.
We also believe it helps to deepen your appreciation of what
we create. We carefully select veneers and solid woods with
pride. And, while we hand-finish all wood in the exact same
way, each piece accepts stains differently—meaning every
one is an individual work of craftsmanship.
Real wood is perfectly imperfect. Mineral streaks, gum
pockets, and variations in color, grain, and texture
are what make wood, well—wood.
As with most interior surfaces, different grain characteristics
of wood are revealed depending upon the always-varying
interplay of placement, changing light, and differences in
your viewing angle. That’s why you may have even noticed
that when two wood pieces are installed at a 90° angle, they
appear slightly different in color. This phenomenon, called
“flip,” is simply due to the natural way light reflects upon
the surface.
In nature, such randomness is beauty, and we’re clearly
staying true to that ideal.

Demystifying “Flip”:
Two wood pieces placed at
90° may seem to vary in color.
It’s a phenomenon of the way
light reflects. (And it’s natural.)

Admired for its warmth and personality,
Cherry is a durable wood, with the versatility
to work in any setting.
From environments contemporary to
traditional, Cherry fits in with charm and
character. Cherry veneer can vary in hue,
from creamy pink to deep, reddish brown.
Marked by its fine texture, Cherry may also
exhibit gum streaks and pin knots, which
give extra intrigue to its appearance.

CONTEMPORARY MAPLE.
Maple remains a popular choice for
contemporary interiors and offers a
range of intriguing hues.
Veneer colors range from white to dark pink,
with subtle shades of yellow and green as
well. At first glance, Maple’s look is defined
by a close, straight grain and fine, even
texture. But the species’ inherent maple
sugar and mineral streaks provide additional
interest for the eye to appreciate.

Walnut is an old (and new) favorite.
And still a go-to for fine wood furniture.
Long the desired choice for quality wood
furniture of the traditional variety, Walnut’s
beauty is now being highlighted in more modern
settings. Veneer colors may span from light,
grey-brown to dark grey, and may even show
tones of green and purple. The color contrasts,
together with an open, straight grain pattern, and
interesting cathedrals, are Walnut’s distinguishing
features that enhance any space.

When the opportunity calls for
something remarkable, Sapele and
Clear Zebrawood Composite deliver
impact beyond the everyday.
Sapele’s signature ribbon stripes are
complemented by rich finishes that
fit in contemporary and transitional
settings alike. On the other hand, Clear
Zebrawood Composite veneer is crisp
and clean in contrast, and it makes a
bolder contemporary statement. Further,
it’s ideal as an accent that works well
with Walnut finishes, or solid color
paints and laminates.

Any discussion involving wood and
furniture inevitably connects to making
environmentally smart choices—
especially as it relates to Kimball Office.

So, how does Kimball Office measure up in this
all-too-important area?
Not only is our Vision Collection the industry’s
first surface materials program to be designed
around sustainability, but 100% of the products we
manufacture are ANSI/BIFMA level® 2 or 3 certified.
We’re ready to do even more.
As it relates specifically to wood, our finished wood
surfaces are sealed with Pura,® a proprietary waterbased, UV finish. This, along with the availability
of wood certified by the Forest Stewardship Council
(FSC), means our products can contribute to helping
you earn LEED® credits.
Today, we provide you with environmentally
responsible wood options that many manufacturers
simply don’t. We also make it easy to find out
exactly how our furniture choices measure up.

MORE TO DISCUSS.
As we continue to devote serious energy to our most
comprehensive and sustainable collection of surface
materials yet, keep this in mind: it’s just one of the
ways we’re pushing furniture forward to meet the
full range of your design needs.
The flexibility inherent in our wood veneers, laminates,
paints, and thermofoils is indicative of what you’ll find
throughout the Kimball Office family of products. In
categories like benching, desking, seating, systems, and
beyond, we certainly have pieces to fit specific situations.
But in the bigger picture, we have versatile and complete
answers that apply throughout an entire floor plan—
and that cross the spectrum of markets, budgets, and
aesthetic sensibilities.
