Innovations like the Stella computer keyboard support

Details, a Steelcase Design Partnership company that specializes in products that support “healthy computing,” introduced a keyboard support in 1998 that dramatically reduces the risk of repetitive stress injuries because it’s exceptionally easy to adjust.

Not only has it been a commercial success (sales have surpassed initial forecasts by a factor of three); it also won I.D. magazine’s Design Distinction award.

How did it get its name? The design team named it after one member’s dog. So much for the science of product identification.
