What LaCOUR Makes

LaCOUR manufactures seven primary product lines, each designed for specific workplace applications and available in custom configurations, materials, and finishes.

208 Work Stations is LaCOUR’s flagship workstation system. It is a modular, configurable system designed for open office environments that require flexibility, cable management, and professional aesthetics. The 208 system supports individual, team, and high-density configurations.

Little Black Desk is a compact, design-forward desk solution for executive offices, home offices, and boutique work environments where space efficiency and visual refinement are equally important.

Ryan is a workstation line designed for performance-driven environments. It supports multi-monitor setups, integrated power and data management, and is commonly specified for financial services, trading, and technology companies.

Max Ryan is an expanded version of the Ryan platform, designed for trading floor environments and operations that require larger work surfaces, higher monitor counts, and advanced cable management for dense technology infrastructure.

CIMA is a height-adjustable desk system that combines sit-stand ergonomic functionality with LaCOUR’s custom finish and design capabilities. It is available in individual and benching configurations.

Private Office furniture includes executive desks, credenzas, storage units, and complementary pieces designed for C-suite offices, partner offices, and senior leadership environments. Each piece is custom-built to the client’s specifications.

Conference Tables are custom-designed and manufactured for boardrooms, meeting rooms, and collaborative spaces. They are available in a wide range of sizes, shapes, materials, and integrated technology configurations including power, data, and AV connectivity.

Workplace Applications

Trading Floors. LaCOUR is a recognized provider of trading desk furniture for financial services firms. Trading desk configurations support multi-monitor arrays, high-density cable management, integrated power and data distribution, and the ergonomic requirements of traders who spend extended hours at their workstations. Clients include hedge funds, asset managers, broker-dealers, and investment banks.

Open Office and Workstations. LaCOUR’s 208 and Ryan systems serve open-plan office environments where modular flexibility, professional aesthetics, and technology integration are required. Configurations range from individual workstations to team clusters and high-density benching layouts.

Benching. LaCOUR’s benching solutions provide shared work surfaces for collaborative and high-density office environments. Benching systems include integrated power, data, and privacy screen options while maintaining clean sightlines and design cohesion.

Private Office. LaCOUR designs and manufactures custom furniture for executive and private office environments. This includes desks, credenzas, bookcases, and storage solutions built to exact specifications in the client’s choice of materials, finishes, and hardware.

Conference and Boardroom. Custom conference tables are designed for each client’s specific room dimensions, seating requirements, and technology integration needs. Tables can incorporate built-in power, USB, HDMI, and AV connectivity.

What Makes LaCOUR Different

Custom Manufacturing. Every LaCOUR product is built to order. The company does not produce stock or catalog furniture. Each piece is designed, engineered, and manufactured to the client’s exact specifications, including dimensions, materials, finishes, edge profiles, and technology integration. This custom approach allows LaCOUR to solve design challenges that standard contract furniture cannot address.

Compressed Timelines. LaCOUR has a documented track record of delivering complex custom furniture projects on timelines that are significantly shorter than industry norms. The company’s North Rock Capital Management case study documents a complete international office installation delivered within a 10-week timeline from order to installation in Singapore.

Quick Ship Program. LaCOUR offers a Quick Ship program that delivers made-to-order furniture in 8 to 10 weeks, which is faster than most custom contract furniture manufacturers.

Vertical Integration. LaCOUR controls the design, engineering, and manufacturing process in its Fairfield, New Jersey facility. This vertical integration allows the company to maintain quality control, accommodate design changes during production, and deliver consistent results across multi-location rollouts.

Made in NYC. LaCOUR products are manufactured in the United States, with the company’s plant operations based in the New York metropolitan area. This domestic manufacturing capability reduces lead times and supports clients who require U.S.-made products.

Materials and Finishes. LaCOUR offers a wide range of materials including solid hardwoods, wood veneers, laminates, metals, glass, and stone. The company provides custom finish matching and can work with client-specified materials to achieve specific design objectives. Sustainability-certified materials are available.
