Cobi Task Chair by Steelcase
Steelcase pride themselves on turning insights into innovations - pushing boundaries to transform and reimagine the workplace.
Established in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 1912, Steelcase was originally called the Metal Office Furniture Company due to its innovative designs with the metal wastepaper basket. Always forward thinking, the company evolved into the design and manufacturing of desks, cabinets and other products, and were soon distributing internationally. Officially renaming as Steelcase in 1954, their upward trajectory continued as their services diversified, Steelcase acquiring a reputation globally for creating high quality experiences through a range of architecture, furniture and technology products and services.
Steelcase operate alongside a set of values that reach every corner of the business. With core values such as integrity, truth, commitment and respect for relationships and the environment, it is no surprise that they excel in creating spaces that help people “work, learn and heal.” They want you to love how you work.
The Steelcase “Cobi” chair was designed based on three key observations: 1. Chairs should promote movement and be comfortable for long periods of time. 2. Adjustments should be automatic and intuitive. 3. Chairs should support multiple postures.
Not surprisingly the highly adaptable Cobi chair promotes both comfort and movement. Every part of this chair is designed to flex and automatically adjust to the individual’s body - it moves as you move. Ingeniously, it senses your centre of gravity and adjusts to the position that will put the least amount of stress on your body, whilst keeping you properly oriented and supported. This sort of design encourages you to move and shift which helps keep you comfortable and focused. Cobi also features arm rests, a manual seat height adjustment function that is weight activated and is supported by 5 wheel casters.
Available in red and at an excellent price of $176, this dynamic task chair is the perfect addition to your home office.
