In the future, Logitech will no longer exclusively offer peripheral devices such as mice, keyboards, speakers and headsets, but will also sell dedicated office furniture for gamers under the Logitech G brand
To this end, the company will cooperate with the US furniture manufacturer Herman Miller, which is known for high-priced furniture solutions in the office and living area.
Both companies announced in one official press release (via Golem), the goal of the cooperation is to "address the needs of e-sports athletes, players and streamers". The focus is on an ergonomic design that should be specially adapted to the health requirements of players.
Focus on players
Logitech and Hermann Miller said they plan to work with e-sports teams to develop special furniture for players, including other Complexity Gaming, TSM and NaVi.
So far, however, no precise details about planned products are available: The press release only contained the announcement of an office chair for players, which is to be launched in spring 2020.

We assume that Logitech and Hermann Miller will base their design on existing designs and developments. It would therefore come as no surprise if the chair resembled a racing seat.
Additional features such as holding and support surfaces, connections for headsets and peripherals, and lighting are also conceivable. In terms of price, the chair is likely to be in the middle three-digit euro range compared to Herman Miller's other range.
