Collaborative Seating
Collaborative Seating
Collaborative work often occurs in areas where people can sit comfortably with one another. These spaces need a chair that lets them stay connected to each other and their information.
The i2i lounge chair was designed specifically to foster collaboration. Users can stay more engaged; they can retain eye-to-eye contact and eye-to-information thanks to the unique i2i dual swivel mechanism.
Automatic Comfort
Various Postures
Various Postures

Observation. People don’t adjust their chairs while collaborating.
Insight. Adjustments should be automatic and intuitive.
Observation. People change postures when collaborating.
Insight. Chairs should support multiple postures
