AndaSeat Xtreme Series wins Silver at 2026 Rome Design Awards

AndaSeat’s Xtreme Series standing desk earned Silver in the Product Design – Furniture category at the 2026 Rome Design Awards. The win spotlights a workstation design that integrates power routing, cable storage and structural support into a motorized desk built for modern computing setups.

Why it matters: - The award recognizes a shift in desk design from a simple surface to workstation infrastructure. - The Xtreme Series combines movement, power management and stability in one product for gaming, professional and home setups. - The recognition reflects growing demand for furniture that can support powered devices, mobile work and adjustable-height use.

What happened: - AndaSeat received a Silver award at the 2026 Rome Design Awards for the Xtreme Series standing desk. - The desk won in the Product Design – Furniture category. - The official winner listing identified the entry as “AndaSeat Xtreme Series: The Clutter-Free Standing Desk.” - The Rome Design Awards winner gallery listed the Xtreme Series as a Silver winner.

The details: - The award description highlighted a cold-formed steel T-frame with dual support beams. - The design routes insulated 16AWG/3C power cabling through the desk’s left leg. - A separate steel tray beneath the desktop holds power strips and excess cabling. - The desk adjusts from about 28.7 to 46.1 inches, or 730 to 1,170 mm. - The electric lift system moves at 22 mm per second. - AndaSeat rated the operating noise level below 50 dB. - The desk supports loads up to 70 kg, including the desktop and installed equipment. - The frame includes long side brackets, two-stage legs and widened feet. - The control panel includes three memory presets. - The panel also includes a real-time height display, an adjustable sedentary reminder, anti-collision functionality and a child-lock control. - The anti-collision system stops and reverses the desk when resistance is detected during vertical travel. - The company designed the desk for use across professional and gaming environments.

Between the lines: - The product treats cable routing as part of the furniture architecture rather than an add-on. - The award entry ties the frame, motor, power path and controls together as one system. - Updated 2026 U.S. General Services Administration guidance recommends adjustable-height work surfaces, adjustable computer components and workplace equipment that supports mobile work. - The same guidance addresses power management for computers, monitors and other plug-in devices as part of workplace planning. - GSA also notes that computers, monitors and other plug loads can represent a significant portion of office electricity demand. - That guidance is about building energy management and does not say the Xtreme reduces electricity use.

What's next: - The award gives AndaSeat a design milestone as the company expands beyond seating into workspace products. - The Xtreme Series positions AndaSeat closer to workstation design that blends furniture, movement and power infrastructure. - The company’s broader portfolio includes ergonomic chairs, standing desks, monitor arms and related accessories. - Founded in 2007, AndaSeat says its product-development approach combines structural engineering, adjustable ergonomics, material development and integrated workstation systems.

The bottom line: - The Xtreme Series win signals that desk design is now being judged on how well it manages the hidden mechanics of modern work.
