.04
Maarten Van Severen, 2000
Maarten Van Severen's .04 chair is distinctly different in appearance from typical task chairs used in conventional office settings. Yet it offers advantageous ergonomic features: the chair's flexible integral foam shell has a comfortable sitting surface and pleasantly pliant back, and the micro-mechanism with a rubber ball joint allows gentle multi-directional movement. With its unobtrusive design, the .04 task chair is ideally suited to studio environments and home offices.
