From the office chairs category:
Created by Niels Diffrient for Humanscale, the Freedom office chair provides you with the ultimate support and comfort you need for a long working day. Ergonomically shaped, it automatically adjusts to each user and has been designed to eliminate the need for manual controls. It features a sophisticated weight-sensitive, self-locking recline mechanism and theres also a headrest to ensure youre totally supported. This model is contract standard and upholstered in supple leather for a smart and durable finish. Upholstered in chrome-free leather The leather used on this chair is manufactured by Wollsdorf Leather, a carbon neutral tannery. Instead of using chemical-based chrome to tan the leather, theyve used natural, vegetable tanning which uses no harmful chemicals and is free from heavy metals, making the manufacture of this office chair kinder to the environment. The leather cushions are also sculpted to provide optimal weight distribution and comfort. Adjustable to each user This office chair is designed with a responsive, weight-sensitive backrest that automatically tilts and reclines when you move. It adapts to the changing needs of your spine as your recline the chair and its intelligent counterbalance mechansim provides the right amount of support for each users body shape and size. The seat is height adjustable and the dynamic headrest adjusts to cradle your head and neck while you work. It will also move automatically when you sit upright. The armrests have a synchonous design, meaning theyll move up and down together and stay with you when you recline. This reduces muscular effort in your neck and shoulders, encouraging good posture and minimising the risk of pain. About the designer Designer Niels Diffrient aimed to create an office chair that would automatically adapt to the user, allowing them to move freely from posture to posture. His unique approach removed complexities found in other office chairs, such as cumbersome recline levers and back tension dials for a truly ergonomic task chair. As a result, he developed a recline mechanism that perfectly adjusts to the user and he reinvented the modern office chair to be simple, functional and timeless. The Freedom chair is the winner of ten design awards to date, including the Design Distinction Award in the prestigious ID Design Review competition, 2000.
