Alberto Meda, 2017

Physix Studio is the reductive combination of an elegant seat structure with a height-adjustable five-star base on castors. The functional features of the lightweight Physix Studio office chair make it ideal for the contemporary home office and its emphasis on understated aesthetic, without having to compromise on ergonomy and comfort.

Physix

The structure of Physix is based on the idea of creating a continuous seat shell by stretching a single textile panel between two side members. With its design, the chair assumes its place in a long line of iconic chairs while taking the typology to yet another level. Using state-of-the-art materials and production technology, Alberto Meda orchestrates an interplay of three elements to create a new dynamic sitting experience: a flexible frame construction, an elastic cover and a stabilising mechanism. Together these three characteristics form an ingenious construction that explores new possibilities of dynamic sitting through the interaction of flexible and rigid elements. Physix is available as an office swivel chair, in the version Physix Conference with a four-star base, or in the functionally and aesthetically reductive variant Physix Studio.
