August 3rd, 2010

Design discussions are high on the agenda at this year’s Saturday in Design and one not-to-be-missed event is Kent Parker’s appearance at Zenith.

The lead designer on Formway’s BE Chair will be discussing the design journey that resulted in this exciting new office chair.

The BE Chair – now available at Zenith Interiors – is a unique, award-winning office chair offering freedom of movement and support for the range of postures and tasks performed throughout the day.

From 4pm until 430pm on Saturday 7 August, the Flinders Lane Showroom will be hosting this special discussion.
