January 30, 2026 — Contract furniture manufacturer KFI Studios has just announced the launch of Canopy, a freestanding workstation developed in collaboration with the product design team of renowned architecture firm Gensler. Engineered to meet the demands of today’s evolving workplace, Canopy offers a refined architectural solution for organizing open-plan environments into thoughtfully defined personal spaces. Canopy’s clean lines and clearly defined structure provide privacy and flexibility in a modern form that elevates the look of commercial interiors.
With its distinctive upholstered privacy hood and integrated lighting, Canopy creates a dedicated zone for concentration, softening noise, buffering distractions, and providing a heightened sense of comfort and enclosure without complete isolation. The result is a quiet retreat designed to support a wide range of workstyles, whether for heads-down tasks, video calls, or moments of recharging. The design is particularly well-suited for modern offices, coworking spaces, and education environments where unassigned seating and hybrid schedules require furnishings that can quickly adapt. The freestanding workstation is designed to feel grounded and architectural while delivering on performance, supporting flexibility, movement and the human need for boundaries in shared space, notes Gensler.
Available with a height-adjustable work surface, integrated dimmable lighting controls enhance both focused tasks and virtual meetings thanks to a ring light effect. For interior projects that have sustainability metrics in mind, optional occupancy sensors are also available that will shut off the integrated lighting when not in use. With the addition of convenient power ports, including USBs, Canopy is designed with user comfort and productivity in mind. Canopy can be customized with select upholstery options that are available for the privacy hood. At the same time, the lower surround can be finished with either upholstery, FSC-certified red oak veneer, or low-VOC laminates.
Built in the USA, Canopy meets rigorous quality and sustainability standards. It features FSC-certified solid red oak wood sourced and manufactured within a 200-mile radius of KFI Studios’ Kentucky facility, CertiPUR-US foam, and low VOC finishes.
