The Dauphin HumanDesign® Group (DHDG) is the operative holding company of the enterprise founded by Friedrich-Wilhelm Dauphin in 1968, structured since 1992 as Dauphin Office Interiors GmbH & Co. KG. In autumn 2002 the name Dauphin HumanDesign® Group was officially introduced to bring sales, marketing and consultancy expertise of the then-individual brands Dauphin, Trendoffice and Züco under a coherent umbrella and offer holistic solutions for the entire office and commercial furniture sector. Trendoffice (formerly based in Günzburg, produced at the main Offenhausen facility from 2004) stands for an uncomplicated lifestyle and creative materials in office seating. Züco Bürositzmöbel AG was founded in Rebstein (Switzerland) in 1921 and stands for precise, timelessly aesthetic design, highest manufacturing quality and the finest leathers and fabrics — a Swiss heritage company with over 100 years of experience processing the finest surfaces, known for conference, lounge and office chairs. Bosse Acoustic Spaces (Bosse — "Made in Germany") delivers the Bosse modul space tubular furniture system (configurable for sideboards, lowboards, shelving, display cabinets) and the Bosse human space room-within-a-room systems for focus work and private retreat areas (pods, cubes). Since 2017 Bosse modul space has also been available in the exclusive Le Corbusier colours of Les Couleurs Suisse (Dauphin as licence holder). Dauphin Home completes the portfolio since 2010 with the residential collection.

The DHDG, with 23 sales and production companies and licensees and representatives in 81 countries, is one of Europe's leading providers of complete office solutions. The term HumanDesign® — derived from "human-centered systems" (Mike Cooley, 1980s) — designates the company philosophy: design in the service of the person, not design as an end in itself. Development work is created in interdisciplinary research in collaboration with institutes, universities and designers. Awards (founder Friedrich-Wilhelm Dauphin): Founders' Award of the Bavarian Savings Banks, "Sustainable Manufacturer", German Brand Award, iF Design Award, Red Dot Award, HiP Award Lifetime Achievement 2025.
