A sail chair inspired by a "suspension bridge" that has a structure that provides the maximum while using the minimum materials.
With the concept of applying suspension bridge engineering principles to chairs and using suspension towers to support frameless suspension backs, the elastomeric material ensures maximum tension where support is needed, and more. In the part of, I was able to adjust the tension so that it would not interfere with the free movement of the body. A monopod that combines all the features of MillerKnoll, including beautiful design, state-of-the-art ergonomics, sophisticated design engineering, and environmental friendliness.
The frameless 3D Intelligent Back of the sail chair maintains a healthy balance between support and freedom of movement for the occupant's body.
Suspension back elastomers vary in thickness and strength, providing greater support in the spine and less support elsewhere, facilitating a variety of sitting movements.
The "eco-dematerialized" design ergonomically supports weights up to 159 kg by using less material in a more original way.
MillerKnoll manufactures sail chairs on three continents to reduce the distance between manufacturing plants and buyers.
This product does not contain PVC and the material is mostly completely recyclable.
