Home Office Chairs

The functional home office chair SoFi 7500 Mesh from Håg


An advantage of today's corporate culture is more flexible working hours, while the fact that, thanks to the Internet, many activities can now be completed outwith the office is leading to a rise in the home office. Although a general-purpose chair or classic desk chair fulfills its purpose at home - for anyone who works longer hours and regularly in the home office, the requirements for a work chair are the same as in the office. When choosing the correct office chair, emphasis should always be placed on important factors such as ergonomics, flexibility and functionality. Long sitting requires a good lumbar support; while regular commutes between printer, kitchen and desk can be supported through an office swivel chair. In addition to technical requirements in the home office, special attention should be paid to the design, not least to ensure the chair fits harmoniously with the home furnishings. Thus the big challenge for designers like Alberto Meda is to design home office chairs in a way that ensures functionality and ergonomics, while at the same time keeping the design elegant, light and understated. The Vitra office chair Physix, for example, achieves this perfectly. The Vitra home office chair combines reserved technical solutions with sleek design and high-quality materials meaning it can happily stand in any living room. Alternatively the Vitra Aluminium Chairs by Ray and Charles Eames from 1958 create the ideal symbiosis of functionality and aesthetics with their sophisticated leather or Hopsak covers and chrome plated or polished die-cast aluminum frames and are thus undisputed classics in the home office area.
