Carolina Business Furniture, which specializes in furnishings for the healthcare market, designs contract furniture with style and panache. Their Retrospect collection will make anyone contemplate the past and the present. While healthcare furniture of the past sacrificed good design in the name of functionality, today’s products offer both attractiveness and practicality.

Flexible Furniture for Healthcare Applications

The number of pieces in the Retrospect line allows people to “personalize and update space designs.” Retrospect includes guest chairs, loveseats, sofas, sleepers, benches, and occasional tables. Seating comes in armless versions, or with flared arms or straight arms. End tables and cocktail tables are offered in various shapes. The collection is available with back placements, leg options, hang tables, bolster pillows, and tablet options. Retrospect even includes seating that has been scaled for children, so there is “complimentary seating for all visitors.” Basically, Retrospect has thought of everything.

The shiny tapered legs on all the Retrospect pieces give the furniture line a clean and light feeling—quite the antidote to other healthcare seating. Tables also convey this sense of airiness with their suspended glass tops. And the back placements seem to float weightlessly. The complete collection transforms healthcare furniture into a welcoming environment that gives a nod to the past with its classic feel and looks toward the future with its fresh perspective: “Retrospect looks better than ever!”
