Design Is in the Details—Like the Grommet That Doesn’t Wiggle

Walk into any workspace and run your hand along the surface of a table. Most people will glance at the finish and admire the edge detail. But you notice something else: the grommet. Does it sit flush? Does it wiggle?
For you, those small, “invisible” details aren’t trivial—they’re telling. A loose grommet signals compromise. A clean, precise fit signals care, craftsmanship, and pride. It’s a story about whether the manufacturer sweats the small stuff, because if they don’t, how can you trust them with the big things?
At LaCOUR, we obsess over the details others overlook. A perfectly seated grommet may seem small, but it communicates the same commitment we bring to every element of design and production. When your client leans across the conference table, they may not consciously register it. But subconsciously, they sense excellence. That’s the level of quality you want your projects to reflect—durability, precision, and confidence in execution.
Why the Small Details Matter
Perceived Value: Stakeholders notice when everything feels tight, aligned, and intentional.
Brand Alignment: Even hardware reflects your organization’s identity. Worn, rattling components undermine the brand experience.
Durability in Use: Precision-built elements last longer, ensuring projects stand the test of time.
Trust Factor: Flawless details assure you, and your clients, that nothing was left to chance.
When you’re coordinating countless moving parts: design vision, client expectations, installation schedules—the last thing you need is a product that cuts corners. Every grommet, every hinge, every panel is either reinforcing your credibility or eroding it.
LaCOUR builds confidence into every touchpoint. Because we know the details aren’t minor. They’re the difference between “good enough” and “unforgettable.”




At LaCOUR, we understand that the true mark of quality in office furniture lies in the details others often miss. A flush grommet or a precise edge finish might seem insignificant, but these small touches reveal a manufacturer’s dedication to craftsmanship. A loose grommet signals compromise, while a perfectly seated one speaks to care, durability, and confidence in execution. When you choose LaCOUR for your office furniture, you’re choosing more than just functionality—you're choosing exceptional precision and lasting quality that your clients will notice, even if they don’t consciously register it. Every detail reflects our commitment to excellence.
