OPTIMIZED COMFORT, ENHANCED COLLABORATION
People don’t just sit in meetings. They interact, brainstorm and create. QiVi, an intelligently designed collaborative office chair, encourages movement, supports multiple postures and provides comfort for extended periods of time—fostering collaboration in a variety of settings.
COMFORTABLE COLLABORATION
Collaboration is increasingly common in the workplace. Based on three key observations and insights, QiVi was designed as an ergonomic chair to increase comfort in conference and meeting rooms.
- Encourages movement and supports multiple postures
- Automatic and intuitive backrest and seat adjustments
- Pivoting backrest and gliding seat that move with the body

Pivoting Backrest
Pivoting backrest naturally adjusts as the body moves.
Gliding Seat
