The SÃO PAULO chair series, designed by Norbert Geelen and formally introduced in 2013 by German high-end chair brand Kusch+Co, a partner of MATSU, now hold the much-coveted “FIRA Ergonomics Excellence Award”
Comfortable ergonomic design, city with humanistic care
As standard, the swivel chair features a dual synchronized mechanism as well as seat height, seat depth, and forward tilt adjustment to encourage the user to frequently change his posture which is the best prevention strategy against slouching and hunching in an office chair.
Optional extras include height, width, and depth adjustable as well as swivelling 3D arms; a height and depth adjustable headrest; adjustable lumbar support, as well as a fold-out coat hanger. All operating elements are nearly self-explanatory. Correctly adjusting a swivel chair has never been easier.
Invisibly integrated technology
From the castors all the way up to the headrest, S?o Paulo is a cleverly designed, sophisticated swivel chair. The seat is designed to seemingly float on top of the base. The space underneath the seat is this series’ unique design feature. Neither levers nor buttons adversely affect the overall clear-cut look. Its extraordinary features are all nearly invisibly incorporated into the purpose-built seat base, which was exclusively developed for Kusch+Co. All the operating elements are fitted flush underneath the seat.
Precious and elegant Class A surface
This principle is used in automotive design to further upgrade the design quality of their high-end cars. These aesthetic freeform surfaces, referred to as Class A surfaces, are characterized by the highest level of attention to detail.
The softly moulded, partly polished surfaces coalesce harmoniously into one another through a curvature continuity rather than through a set of defined radii.
