Evaluation from the German Design Award Committee for São Paulo
A task chair series that dispenses with superfluous gadgetry, instead focusing on pure aesthetics. Its design features are mesmerizing: slender and clear-cut contours, oozing power and dynamics. This design evokes emotions. Characterized by exemplary ergonomics and the best possible handling. Easy slide controls instead of inconvenient levers. One simple sleight of hand instead of wearisome adjusting. All operating elements are incorporated flush with the seat base and easily accessible.
