With its shell-shaped design, the Softshell Chair provides a level of comfort you can only appreciate when you actually sit on it: Vertical structural elements under the cover adjust to the user’s back, giving the person freedom of movement as well as superb seating comfort, even over long periods of time. The soft contours with soft padding all around and an attractive look and feel give the chair a calming, inviting impression as well as a cosy character. This of course provides a particularly exciting contrast when using the Softshell Chair in public areas.

Four-legged and four-star base versions

These versions of the Softshell Chair can be used as a visitor’s or conference chair in offices. At the same time, on gliders these versions can also be used at dining tables in both home and restaurant settings.

Five-star base on castors

The five-star base version on castors with adjustable seat height is ideal for spaces where the typical characteristics of an office swivel chair are not desired or required.

Leather upholstery

With leather upholstery, the Softshell Chair strikes a formal and dignified presence, making it highly suitable for use in distinguished conference rooms and exclusive hotels.
