Basis Of Presentation	BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Results for interim periods should not be considered indicative of results to be expected for a full year. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2014 (“Form 10-K”). The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of February 28, 2014 was derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in our Form 10-K.
	As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “Steelcase,” “we,” “our,” “Company” and similar references are to Steelcase Inc. and its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. Unless the context otherwise indicates, reference to a year relates to the fiscal year, ended in February of the year indicated, rather than a calendar year. Additionally, Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 reference the first, second, third and fourth quarter, respectively, of the fiscal year indicated. All amounts are in millions, except share and per share data, data presented as a percentage or as otherwise indicated.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
New Accounting Standards	NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a new standard on revenue recognition. The new standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard is designed to create greater comparability for financial statement users across industries and jurisdictions and also requires enhanced disclosures. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	EARNINGS PER SHARE
	Earnings per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends or dividend equivalents and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities represent restricted stock units in which the participants have non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period. Diluted earnings per share includes the effects of certain performance units in which the participants have forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents during the performance period.

Fair Value [Abstract]
Fair Value	FAIR VALUE
	The carrying amounts for many of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable, short-term borrowings and certain other liabilities, approximate their fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Our short-term investments, foreign exchange forward contracts and long-term investments are measured at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	Our total debt is carried at cost and was $285.0 and $287.0 as of November 28, 2014 and February 28, 2014, respectively. The fair value of our total debt is measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market interest rates for similar types of instruments and was approximately $326 and $327 as of November 28, 2014 and February 28, 2014, respectively.
	We periodically use derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to movements in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure of these risks with the intention to reduce our risk of short-term volatility. We do not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.
	Assets and liabilities measured at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of November 28, 2014 and February 28, 2014 are summarized below:

Share-based Compensation [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
	Performance Units
	In Q1 2015, we awarded 305,512 performance units ("PSUs") to our executive officers. Of the PSUs awarded, 152,756 units are earned after a three-year performance period, from 2015 through 2017, based on our total shareholder return relative to a comparison group of companies, which is a market condition, and, if earned, will be issued in the form of shares of Class A Common Stock. The number of shares that may be earned can range from 0% to 200% of the target amount; therefore, the maximum number of shares that can be issued under this award is 305,512. These PSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the performance period. We used the Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of these PSUs on the date of grant. The model resulted in a weighted average grant date fair value of $23.25 per unit for these PSUs, compared to $15.50 and $11.92 per unit for PSUs granted in 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	The weighted average grant date fair values were determined using the following assumptions:
		2015 Awards		2014 Awards		2013 Awards
	Three-year risk-free interest rate (1)	0.7	%	0.3	%	0.5	%
	Expected term	3 years		3 years		3 years
	Estimated volatility (2)	42.2	%	44.7	%	49.8	%
	_______________________________________
	-1	Based on the U.S. government bond benchmark on the grant date.
	-2	Represents the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock for the three-year period preceding the grant date.
	The remaining 152,756 PSUs awarded during Q1 2015 are earned after a three-year performance period, from 2015 through 2017, based on our three-year average return on invested capital, which is a performance condition, and, if earned, will be issued in the form of shares of Class A Common Stock. The number of shares that may be earned can range from 0% to 200% of the target amount; therefore, the maximum number of shares that can be issued under this award is 305,512. These units are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the performance periods based on the probability that the performance condition will be met. The expense recorded will be adjusted as the estimate of the total number of PSUs that will ultimately be earned changes. The weighted average grant date fair value of these PSUs was $16.69. The fair value is equal to the closing stock price on the date of grant.
	For all PSUs awarded in Q1 2015, dividend equivalents are calculated based on the actual number of shares earned at the end of the performance period equal to the dividends that would have been payable on the earned shares had they been held during the entire performance period as Class A Common Stock. At the end of the performance period, the dividend equivalents are paid in the form of cash or Class A Common Stock at the discretion of the Board of Directors. In addition, these awards will be forfeited if the participant leaves the Company for reasons other than retirement, disability or death or if the participant engages in any competition with us, as defined in the plan and determined by the Administrative Committee in its discretion. If a change in control occurs at least six months following the award date, the target awards will be deemed to be earned and a pro rata number of units will be vested and paid based upon the length of time within the performance period which has elapsed prior to the effective date of the change in control.
	The total PSU expense and associated tax benefit for all outstanding awards for the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014 and November 22, 2013 are as follows:
		Three Months Ended							Nine Months Ended
	Performance Units	November 28,				November 22,			November 28,		November 22,
		2014				2013			2014		2013
	Expense	$	0.7			$	0.3		$	4.2	$	5.7
	Tax benefit	0.2				0.1			1.5		2.2
	As of November 28, 2014, there was $5.5 of remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested PSUs, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 2.0 years.
	The PSU activity for the nine months ended November 28, 2014 is as follows:
	Maximum Number of Shares That May Be Issued Under Nonvested Units	Total		Weighted-Average
				Grant Date
				Fair Value per Unit
	Nonvested as of February 28, 2014	1,833,288		$	14.04
	Granted	611,024		19.97
	Nonvested as of November 28, 2014	2,444,312		$	14.65
	Restricted Stock Units
	During the nine months ended November 28, 2014, we awarded 836,153 restricted stock units ("RSUs"), of which 130,181 were awarded to our executive officers. These RSUs have restrictions on transfer which lapse three years after the date of grant, at which time the units will be issued as unrestricted shares of Class A Common Stock. Holders of RSUs receive cash dividends equal to the dividends we declare and pay on our Class A Common Stock, which are included in Dividends paid on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. These awards are subject to forfeiture if a participant leaves our company for reasons other than retirement, disability, death or termination by us without cause prior to the vesting date. RSUs are expensed and recorded in Additional paid-in capital on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets over the requisite service period based on the value of the underlying shares on the date of grant.
	The RSU expense and associated tax benefit for all outstanding awards for the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014 and November 22, 2013 are as follows:

Restructuring Activities [Abstract]
Restructuring Activities	RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES
	In Q2 2015, we announced additional restructuring actions in EMEA intended to safeguard our global competitiveness through changes in our EMEA manufacturing footprint. These actions relate to the exit of a manufacturing facility in Wisches, France and the transfer of its activities to other existing facilities in the EMEA region. As a result of these actions, we expect to incur approximately $39 of net cash restructuring costs in connection with this project. In Q3 2015, we transferred the assets and activities of the facility to a third party, and incurred restructuring costs related to the transfer, including $27.3 for a facilitation payment to the third party. We incurred $29.6 and $31.0 of business exit and other costs (including the facilitation payment) in the EMEA segment in connection with these actions during the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014, respectively.
	In Q1 2015, we announced restructuring actions to close a manufacturing facility in High Point, North Carolina. In connection with this project, we expect to incur approximately $8 of cash restructuring costs, with approximately $4 relating to workforce reductions and approximately $4 relating to manufacturing consolidation and production moves. We incurred $0.4 and $1.1 of employee termination costs in the Americas segment in connection with these actions during the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014, respectively. We incurred $0.3 and $0.4 of business exit and other costs in the Americas segment in connection with these actions during the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014, respectively.
	In Q1 2015, we recognized a $12.0 gain related to the sale of an idle manufacturing facility in the Americas segment that was closed as part of previously announced restructuring actions.
	In Q3 2014, we announced restructuring actions in EMEA intended to safeguard our global competitiveness through changes in our EMEA manufacturing footprint. These actions consist of the closure of a manufacturing facility in Durlangen, Germany and the establishment of a new manufacturing location in Stribro, Czech Republic. In Q1 2015, we completed negotiations with the works councils related to these actions. In connection with this project, we expect to incur approximately $26 of cash restructuring costs, with approximately $19 related to employee termination costs and approximately $7 related to business exit and other related costs. We incurred $5.8 and $10.1 of employee termination costs in the EMEA segment in connection with these actions during the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014, respectively. We incurred $0.5 and $1.1 of business exit and other related costs in the EMEA segment in connection with these actions during the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014, respectively. During 2014, we incurred $0.7 of business exit and other related costs in the EMEA segment in connection with these actions.
	In Q1 2014, we announced restructuring actions in EMEA to reorganize the sales, marketing and support functions in France. We incurred $1.3 and $2.1 of employee termination costs in the EMEA segment in connection with these actions during the three and nine months ended November 28, 2014, respectively. During 2014, we incurred $6.3 related to employee termination costs and $0.9 of business exit and other related costs in the EMEA segment in connection with these actions. These restructuring actions are substantially complete.
